Kayla's Back to College

So I've known that this day would come for the last 8 months, but how did it come so fast? As I hugged her today in the parking lot and watched her drive away the strings on my heart were being tugged on! It has been so nice to have Kayla home for just over 8 months. She has been a great daughter, helper, driver, sister, and a wonderful friend and will be missed by all of us. Kayla has a talent of making me laugh, I don't know why but she can make me laugh more and harder than anyone else. I think her leaving this time is almost harder than the first, she has grown and matured and is such a great friend. When no one else wanted to go grocery shopping she would go. I spent more money with her but it was always fun! I am so grateful for cell phones and that she is willing to call often, if only for a few min. To my sweet daughter...You will be greatly missed! Have fun, enjoy the journey, dance like no one is watching, be yourself, follow your dreams! This isn't good-bye only see ya soon!

BSU Football....Finally

So the first BSU Football game of the Season was last Saturday.  We played ISU, won 49-7 and the season is underway.  Ben has been counting down the days for about, oh, since the Hawaii Bowl last year.  We love going to the games and cheering for BSU!  Kayla and Krystin were able to go down on the sidelines with Damon and that is always a highlight for her.  Hopefully we will have a winning season with a very young team.  Some people think it's a little weird, me, being a huge football fan.  BUT...I did grow up with 5 brothers 4 of them which played football, watched football, ate football, slept football...so me being the little sister went to soooo many football games from little league to high school.  I also remember watching many football games over Thanksgiving always picking the team I wanted to win by the color that I liked best. Made sense to me, not so much my brothers but I had to find some joy in watching so much football.  I guess all those games just wore off on me.  

Me and Kayla waiting to get into the stadium.

Kayla's photos from the field.  She thought she should get a picture of Kellen Moore, the freshman quarterback, and the new press/sky boxes.  

GO BRONCOS!!
