January 14, 2007 ~ Go Pats!!!

Well, I honestly didn't think I'd get a picture up tonight. It either rained or sleeted all day long so it was a very dreary day here. You are probably wondering what the heck I chose to photograph today. This happens to be the only bobble head doll I will allow in my house. It is a little "Patriot" that I guess you could get at Dunkin Donuts back in 2001. Good friends of ours in Massachusetts had one when we were there watching a playoff game years ago. My friend Pete used it as a good luck charm. A simple pat on the head was all the New England Patriots needed for luck and a winning play!! Well when we came home we HAD to have one too! I found him on ebay and suprised my hubby with him. He sits on the windowsill of my family room until he is needed for a big game...he was out tonight. Sorry to all the Chargers fans out there but when you are up against a good luck bobble head doll...you don't have a chance :)

By the way, that is my hubby's hand and my son's hand...he thought the whole idea was GREAT!! And in case you are wondering...my son is holding a tube of chapstick!
