The Buckeye Party

We had a party at our house last Monday night to watch the BCS National Championship Game between the OSU Buckeyes and the LSU Tigers. Todd cooked BBQ chicken sandwiches, carrot salad, lemon vinaigrette green beans, caramel popcorn, and orange zest blueberry lemon cupcakes. Unfortunately, the Buckeyes lost! :( But to look on the bright side, it's better to lose the National Championship than to lose to USC in the Rose Bowl, which we probably would have done had we gone to the Rose Bowl.

On the upside, the Chargers beat the Indianapolis Colts today to go on to the AFC Championship game next week against New England! Although, I'm not holding out much hope to win against New England, who is undefeated this season. Especially since Philip Rivers, LaDanian Tomlinson, and Antonio Gates are hurt! But it's so great that they won two playoff games and have gone this far!
