Jonathan and I lounged around on the couch all day, walked to the grocery store to get some snacks for the big game, and settled in to watch the National Championship game. I made my Hot Pizza Dip (adapted from allrecipes.com). Here's a picture of that:
Jonathan loves this dip. Here's the recipe:8 oz. reduced-fat cream cheese
1/2 tsp. dried oregano
1/2 tsp. dried parsley
1/4 tsp. dried basil
1/8 tsp. Italian seasoning
1 c. shredded mozzarella cheese
1 c. grated Parmesan cheese
1 c. (or more) pizza sauce
1/4 of a green bell pepper, diced
2 oz. turkey pepperoni sausage, chopped
2 Tbsp. sliced black olives
French bread
In a small bowl, mix together the cream cheese, oregano, parsley, basil, and Italian seasoning. Spread mixture in the bottom of a 9" pie plate of shallow dish. Seal and refrigerate overnight (or a couple of hours if you don't have time). Spread 1/2 cup of the mozzarella and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan on top of the cream cheese mixture; spread the pizza sauce over all. Cook the pepperoni in the microwave for about 20 seconds and wring out the fat with a paper towel. Sprinkle pizza sauce with remaining cheese, top with green pepper, olives, and pepperoni. Cover and cook in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes. Serve with french bread slices that are toasted with butter and garlic powder.

Then, it was time for the big game. I couldn't stand all of the build-up...I just wanted it to be here! It was so special to us that Auburn WON!! Jonathan and I met at Auburn, and it is a very dear place to us. We were so excited that they won the National Championship the same year that we got married! It is something that we will never forget. In honor of Toomer's corner, we felt the need to roll something. Since we had already taken our Christmas tree down, we had to settle for the ceiling fan :)
I took a few pictures of the TV:
