Crazy Weather

Kevin and I got to use his parent's BYU tickets for the game last night. We were both excited to go! My mom came over to watch the boys until Tami could come pick them up. They were excited as well! On our way to the stadium it started to rain. Then it started to POUR. Almost instantly the streets by BYU were flooded and we could barely see. We had been listening to the pre-game show and knew it was going to be delayed because of the lightning. And now with this rain we considered just going home. We decided to stop at Wendy's (which was beyond packed!) to get some dinner while we waited to see when the game was going to start. We were happy to hear we didn't have much longer to wait. The rain had let up and eventually it turned into a beautiful night! (It didn't sprinkle a few times during the game but nothing that drove us away :)
Meanwhile back at home, my mom and Tami had quite an adventure. The boys were outside playing but as soon as it started to storm they all ran inside. Tami and my mom were talking and my mom looked out the window just as the tramp blew away, over the fence, up against the neighbors house! Yikes! Tami said the poles were bent (we already had to trash the net). The tramp was staked into the ground so that was a fierce wind that must have blown in just the right direction. I'm so glad the boys had come inside.

The game was lots of fun. We cheered and high-fived and enjoyed being out together. I do enjoy watching BYU football and it's always a bit more exciting to be at the stadium. BYU played a great game and pulled off a win! GO COUGS!!
