bring it.

today was a big day here at casa choi. we all donned our green and gold gear and cheered on the pack as they won the nfc championship and advanced to the super bowl! whohoo!

choi boy had absolutely no clue what was going on ("what is this football you americans speak of?"), but his daddy nearly lost it.

that was some sort of strange mufasa-holding-simba-on-pride-rock homage type thing. i don't know. i have no words.

oh, choi boy...this poor child has no idea how weird his new family is...

there was some major celebrating and dancing going on and we are excited to watch the big game in two weeks! bring it, steelers, bring it!

and after a major celebration, what's the only thing left to do?

clean up, of course! choi boy's favorite! seriously, the child did his "oh-wah"s of joy when the hubs brought out the vacuum and squealed with delight when i handed him the swiffer. you know, on second thought, perhaps he's got the weirdo chops to fit right in with us after all...

oh, and in case you were wondering, it takes a lot of tries to try and get a decent family shot...

notice choi boy smiling, but not at the camera and momma's crazy eyes. oh, and the drool stain on my shirt.

and p.s. yes, those *are* glitter letters on my shirt. and no, i do not like them. why do sports apparel companies make women's shirts so cheesy??

  1. Looks like a fun day at your house...have to say it was the opposite at ours. My Bears fan hubby sitting slumped on the couch, no cheers from him, with his 2 boys next to him, clueless to the pain he's feeling! =)

  2. That second family photo is GREAT!
    As for the glitter letters, you can totally scrape that off with your fingernails. Or just wash it a bunch of times. Guaranteed glitter removal.

  3. Congratulations! I know you'll all go nuts in a few weeks too.
    I agree about the girl t-shirts! Just cuz I'm a lady doesn't mean my shirt has to be pink...grrrrr.

  6. Love the family photos! And congrats on the win... I'm with your son, what IS that thing called football that you speak of?

  7. I love the family photo, even if those shirts aren't my fave:). A grudging congrats from a Bears fan to a Packers fam!

  9. Ummmm...love. this. post. Between the Pack apparel and Choi Boy's love for the cleaning equipment...I don't what pictures I love more!

    And the cheesy (no pun intended...ha!) sports apparel? Ugh. Bling on my jersey? Not so much. That's why I shop in the boy's department for my Pack gear ;0)

    Glad you had a good weekend ;0)

  10. Oh you guys are so cute. I find that all the girls hockey gear is pink - drives me nuts. No I do not want a pink Jersey!

  14. haha. we don't follow football here so kinda have no clue but gorgeous photos! love the choiboy ones in dad's arms. super cute. and fam pics too! glad your team did well... the cleaning is impressive... i'll need to train my kid early too or they'll end up slack like me...

  15. The pics of the boys are fantastic! Totally cracked me up. I also love the family pics... even if they aren't *perfect*

    And seriously... the shirt thing annoys me to no end. I usually buy boys shirts, then have them tailored to fit me. (seriously) I don't have a ton of sports gear, but what I do have, I want it to fit.

    i love the cleaning photos! hee hee!

  17. Da da da dum da da... Go Pack Go!! I love the family photos! I'm also pretty happy that you'll need your shirts again in two weeks. :)

  18. Well blog twin, you like spaghetti, and I hate it. You married a Packers fan and I married a Steelers fan. I don't know, man. Can we still be friends after this?

    That Mufasa-holding-Simba picture is hilarious. And I love how CB is just drinking and doesn't really care that he's the star of the Lion King.

  19. That's a whole lot of gold & green going on there! Cheeseheads...that's all I'll say! But know what...I'll be cheering for your team too come Superbowl. Bring it...yep!

    Oh...and vacuuming & swiffering are WAYYYY (!) cool activities...D always MUST help. I seriously cannot wait until he can do it solo...but by then, I suspect the glamour & excitement will have worn off. Sheesh.
