Only Nikole, Andy and I were for the Saints. To win the trophy, you couldn't go over the placed bet (Mike tried to make new rules but I think the majority won. He claimed that because we were at his house, he can make the new rules....I don't think so, Mike).
Let's start with the end result first. Yes, that's me kissing the trophy with the statement "I Told You So!" (the winner always has to have a statement, like the real winning quarterback always says:"I'm going to Disneyland". I chose mine as "I told you so" because frankly, the people at the party didn't believe me. They didn't believe that the Larsen's are bringing home the trophy this year. We did. I was off for only 3 points for Saints. My bet was 34-17 for Saints. The final score was 31-17 for Saints. Yea ME!
The trophy is mine...all mine. I would have won big in Vegas.
Even Kailie was for Colts. What was she thinking! Ok, I'll give it to her. She used to live in Indiana so of course she was a fan.
Tai and Mike, the die-hard Colts fans. Maybe next year they will listen to me and choose their teams according to the bet I place. Thanks for hosting the party. Once again we had so much fun with all of you guys!
Jordan and Nikole. Jordan won the trophy last year and he wasn't even there because he was still dating Nikole and I guess she was more important than the game. This year they both were there, and sorry to say, Jordan lost.
Sarah and Andrew. Andrew also thought he was going to take the trophy home. But not so. If you haven't figured it out yet, I took the trophy home. Sarah and Andrew can now focus on getting engaged and then married this spring, summer or fall. Just don't do it between May 14-23. That would be bad because then we would miss another Jennings wedding. Aren't they just so beautiful? They will have super tall and beautiful kids.
Andy and Brooke. Andy was for Saints, so kudos for Andy. Brooke chose poorly. Was it peer pressure?
Dianne and Tim had just returned from Idaho where they celebrated Tim's mom's 85th birthday so Dianne didn't paint her face but she was for Colts. Her pearls are in the shape of the horse shoe. It tells the story. How I love this woman! I wish everyone could have a Dianne in their lives.

McKenzie, Brielle and Kailie decorated their bedroom with the Colts colors. So cute and creative.
Alex has the prime seat in the house. It sure looks like Rod is not that comfortable under that chair.
The whole gang watching the last minutes of the game.
Before the end of the game, we celebrated Rod's, Tai's, Nikole's, Isaak's, Sarah's and Hayden's birthdays.

Did I mention that I won the trophy?

CONGRATULATIONS ON A GREAT GUESS! I just threw out some numbers to make it look good. You had better put the trophy in the middle of your table as a center piece.
