This last weekend my brother in law and niece Reagan came out for a BYU football game and we got to see them while they were here. On Friday they came down to the house to see it and play with Hyrum. They came bearing gifts, a BYU football that sang the fight song when you caught it or hit it, which Hyrum absolutely LOVES! It was great to talk to them and show off our house to them. Quirks and all. Hyrum instantly loved Reagan and insisted that she follow him around and play with him. And Reagan was sweet enough to indulge him.

When Derek got home, they invited us to join them for dinner at Los Hermanos with some returned missionaries that served in the Buffalo area.

It was so nice of them to let us tag along.

When did Hyrum become 5 and Reagan turn 14? On a side note: Would you just look at those curls? No wonder no one ever wants me to cut them. It was a fun time with good food and good company. Thanks again!

On Saturday we met them in Provo to do some pre game festivities and just see them more. Hyrum was begging to play with Reagan all morning and was very excited to see her again. It was in the mid to upper 80's on Saturday so we spent most of our time in the shade near the stadium but we had to take a picture with the cougar.

And Reagan took a picture of us by the cougar as well.

BYU fans will be happy to know that we are never wearing the cursed "Quest" shirts again.


As we sat in the shade of the stadium trees by the cougar club parking we noticed the legendary Lavell Edwards walking toward the stadium. Greg called to him and he was gracious enough to stop to take a picture with Reagan and Hyrum.

If Hyrum wasn't going to be a BYU fan before he's definitely going to be one now. He's taken a picture with the man the stadium was named after.

But I don't think there's much risk of that...


Hyrum and Reagan continued to play before Greg and Reagan headed into the stadium.




Fun times! When they headed into the game we went over to the pregame festivities and got pictures with the Carls Jr star ( Hyrum was confused he thought he was getting CHICKEN stars) and the Gieco Gecko ( which he calls the "alligator") and got a bunch of free stuff.



A great day that ended in a disappointing way but we'll just focus on the good times. Humility is good right?
