The Tangrens

It was Hyrum's first BYU game day on Saturday. We didn't have tickets and we couldn't have gone if we did because Derek was conducting at the stake baptisms at 5:00 so we went down to Provo early. We dressed Hyrum in his jersey and went to look for a polo shirt that Derek could wear to work on game days. The bookstore was packed with people buying BLUE shirts to wear to the game. True Fans wear blue they say. We left empty handed but decided we couldn't pass up the opportunity to go down to the cougar to get some pictures.


Hyrum thought it was all great fun. Although he was a little warm.


We also took the chance to go into the new Gordon B Hinkley Alumni Center. It is really nice. We got a drink and rested a bit on the comfy chairs before heading back to the car to head home.

While we listened to the game. (We're to cheap to pay more than $15 for cable) I was trying to get Hyrum to sit on the edge of the couch and like normal he was keeping his body stiff so that he would end up on his feet ( he much prefers to stand). I stood him up against the couch and he just stood there without me holding him. I reached for my camera and took a picture with one hand ready to catch him but he didn't even sway.


I did finally get him to sit but he didn't like it as much and strangely seemed much sturdier on his feet than he was on his seat.
