Turtle Ride

This is a random post. I'm throwing in a highlight of our adventure to the Texas Rangers game. We had a blast. Maisy loved eating the food. Ace loved throwing things over the balcony. And Wilson loved the whole experience.

Wilson's favorite player, Ian Kinsler, hit a home run that night. They shoot off fireworks when a home run is hit.

This is a random little video of my dad--otherwise known as Pop--giving the grandkids a *TURTLE RIDE.* I loved this because my sister, brothers, and I use to get turtle rides when were children. Good times!

BYU Cougars #9

That's right.  This entry is all about celebrating, bragging, gloating or whatever you want to call it!  Before you even ask--yes, it was a glorious event.  Just being in the brand new and one-of-a-kind Cowboys Stadium was an experience all in itself.  But match that with an incredible and exciting display of the beloved game of football by our very own BYU Cougars and well, it was an athletic fusion that literally moved me to tears!  Never in my life did I think I would cry over football.

The new Cowboys Stadium is absolutely incredible.  Our seats afforded us a great "overhead" view of the field, and a beautiful look at the biggest TV in the world.  160 feet long, 72 feet high. Wow.

 

There were LOTS of rows in fornt of us, and only two rows behind us.  If we were back any farther, we might have fallen out of the stadium.  That's okay, though.  We could still see everything just fine. 

As the first half ended with the Cougars only down by three points, we realized there was a chance of something special happening.  We started getting pretty excited and anxious.  

 

Then, when the Cougars put up a ferocious goal line stand, followed by Max Hall's brilliant touchdown drive, we went CRAZY.  The Cougars held on to win, and as the Sooner fans filed out of the stadium, the BYU fans stayed and celebrated one of the BIGGEST WINS IN BYU HISTORY!!

 

In the polls the Cougars are up to #9, but in our hearts they will always be #1!!
