We went over to Kirsten and Paul's house for the Super Bowl this year. There was good company and good eats. Erik and Deanna came, too, along with their boys, Kris and Dallin.
Although the boys spent some of their time watching the game, after a while they all migrated to Tori's room and started playing with the big, clunky, pink mega blocks and whatever other toys they could find that didn't damage their sense of dignity too badly. Will was actually right down in the middle of the play until he realized his mom was nearby with a camera. Then he would quickly stand up and act all nonchalant, as if he hadn't just been playing up a storm with his younger cousins. He is at that age where he still wants to play, but wants to be perceived as a near adult, too. I remember it well. I would never have admitted to my junior high friends that when I was finished with homework, most evenings I played barbies, Lego's, or little cars with my younger siblings.
