My Boys


We went to the BYU vs Air Force basketball game last night and as sad as it is, this is was my only 'usable' picture. I took a couple blurry ones in the arena but Mr. Events Staff in the yellow vest scolded me for using my flash. It was a lot of fun - probably because we won and let's be honest...it's fun to have the other fans who were just mocking you silenced. I was thinking during the game that if I remind my dad (probably one of the biggest BYU fans ever) how much fun these games are and how close I am to a few of them, he might be tempted to move the fam out to Colorado. I can dream right? Colton did pretty well (and as you can see he was ready for bed the second half of the game - he's near exhaustion in this picture). He kept pointing to other people's food, leaning in to grab a bite. Our bottomless pit. He also kept clapping - normally when the other team did something right. Don't worry Dad, we'll teach him which team to cheer for.

Ah, good for you. Instilling the cougar spirit while they are young... don't worry, I do many things wrong as a mother, but one thing I do right is make sure my kids know the end of the cougar fight song. You can frequntly hear Will say "rarararara.... GOoooo Cougars!" Looks like you guys had fun. Love ya!

Reba today, as I sit here at work with espn.com up on automatic refresh watching the March madness game scores, I am remembering you and your love for sports. . .or at least watching the games! I'm glad that you're indoctrinating little Colton with the BYU spirit. Can't wait until I have my own to do that with!

How cute is that? I love it. The family going to games together. Mom used to drag us to classical concerts, which I'm glad of now, but I think I slept thru most of them. Not too many memories from those. Colton is going to love these memories once he's old enough to actually remember them. :)
