'Tis the Season


If you know anything about my husband, you know that the college football season is more anticipated than most holidays. He reads articles, listens to the talk radio, and studies his press guide thoroughly. This year, Chris even put up a countdown calendar with post-it notes. And, finally, here we are: the Season has begun!

Chris and Thomas celebrated the blessed occasion by taking in their first game of the season at our favorite local Romney Stadium. The Utah State Aggies took on the Rebels from UNLV-- and lost-- but the guys had a really great time. Since Thomas's school is on campus at USU, he is technically an Aggie-- a Little Blue Aggie, to be exact.

Later that night, Chris watched his Utes lose to Oregon State, and we both wondered whether uber-consistent blog coverage of our guys in red is a good idea this year. I'll still probably do it-- after all, this blog is about our lives-- and we'll just pray that injuries heal quickly and the team can get it together in time to make it a good season. GO UTES!

Let's hope Utah can win one for the "Gipper" (I mean "Asiata") Saturday. That Oregon game was painful to watch in so many ways. Ugh.

Hmm you know that really is too bad. You know I went to BYU's first game of the season (you can look at it on my blog) and I believe the score was 20 to 7... BYU winning.:) Just kidding it looks like they had a lot of fun.

I love Thomas's blue shirt for the Utah game. Remind him to wear it later in the season...you know, when they play BYU.

Yeah, I witnessed the making of those post-it notes! I really don't think I've ever met anyone quite like Chris when it comes to college football ... one of a kind.
