Family & Football











We just spent a perfect weekend. Great Family, Great Food, Great Fun, Great Football. Saturday morning at 6:30 a.m. Kerry, Nathan, Hyrum, Amiee, Kyla and I left Rexburg for Provo, Utah. We were planning to go to Mike & Betsy's house to attend Sacrament Meeting with them when Travis gave his farewell talk and Blake gave his return talk. We decided that it would be fun if we could attend a BYU football game with the family. So we purchased 15 tickets and headed to Provo. Mike's family had 7 there, Kerry's other brother Bruce came, Kerry's parents Don and Sharlene were there and then our group of 6. BYU are 5 wins 0 losses so it was a sold out crowd. On the way in to the stadium we were able to say hello to President Uchdorf and take his photo. Then we watched an exciting game against Wyoming. Of course BYU won 44 to 0!!

After the game, we went to Mike & Betsy's house for dinner, and to spend Sunday with them. It was a wonderful Sacrament. Both boys gave great talks and it was really fun to see the two brothers, Blake coming home from Florida and Travis leaving for Minnesota, speak together in church. After church we had lunch with their family and had wonderful food and fun. Nathan always enjoys spending time with the cousins and Mike and Betsy always make us feel so welcome in their home. We got free t-shirts and footballs at the game and even more fun that that - We completely enjoyed spending so much time with Hyrum, Amiee and our beautiful granddaughter Kyla. We are so greatful for all that we have.
