BYU vs UofU...Way to go COUGARS!!

We had planned on studying all day Saturday after Thanksgiving, but when three BYU vs UofU tickets came available priorities kind of changed. I told Dave that I was just going to study, but when he didn't want to go without me I told him I would go. By that time the tickets were being decided between people and we decided that they would go to my father-in-law, Andy and Jason. Dave and I decided that we would go and see if we could just buy tickets at the game. It was pretty risky because tickets were being sold online for over $100! We decided that we would take out things to study and if we found tickets for $20 then we would go, if not then we would study. Either way we would have fun and get to spend time with each other.Dave was able to talk a scalper into selling us the tickets for $20 so we got to go! This was definitely the game to be at. It's the biggest game of the year and everyone goes wearing their colors.



Of course we had on our blue and white! Dave loves this game because the two teams make red, white and blue! For half-time BYU and the Utes combined and they did a really cool patriotic half time performance.

The game was so exciting! Dave started feeling sick at half-time, but stayed the entire game! I kept telling him that we could go because he didn't look too good. He is definitely a trooper. It wasn't as cold as the week before, but it was still pretty chilly. We shared a hot dog at half-time and ate some fruit snacks to hold us over. We were planning on going to Tucano's (Brazilian meat restaurant), but once Dave got sick we decided to go straight home after the game. At the end of the game we were tied! The Utes had just kicked a field goal and tied last minute. In overtime the Utes got another field goal, but that wasn't enough because we got a TOUCHDOWN and won the game!! The crowd seriously went crazy...everyone started to rush onto the field. In the span of like 5 minutes the entire field was covered with people cheering and celebrating.

We went to the store before going home to get medication for Dave. After that we made Christmas cookies for his parent's Annual Christmas Craft. Everyone was using cookie cutters so we decided to get creative. We made a Jack Skeleton Santa.
