43 - 22 and Wet

Catherine is a HUGE Patriots fan.

 Last night on Jan 11, 2014, the New England Patriots played the Indianapolis Colts for the AFC East title.

Catherine also has the greatest mom who scored tickets to the game last night. (hey, it's my blog, I can claim creative license on this one!)

Yep, you read that right: I managed to get tickets to the AFC East game at Gillette Stadium!

getting ready to leave..
. I don't have Patriots gear,
 so the Revolution is the best I could do

a very wet Mom and Daughter!
(and this was taken before the game started!)

start of the game

The Patriots take the field!

gotta love friends who invite you to their seats -
 in the third row, so you can get a close up!

really - gotta love the cool factor of being
right next to the field

the final play of the game!

Had to get a picture of the final score!

We had a ball. I got to tail-gate for the first time ever (Catherine, the old pro, brought me around) We got to hang out with our friend and Catherine's God-father. We had a great time, even if we were very wet. However, God was good and the majority of the rain occurred before the game started.

It was a FANTASTIC game!  I think we will have to make this an annual Mother-Daughter event!

Now to hope Denver loses so we can have one more home game before the Super Bowl.
