BSU game with our Special Friends~ Collin and Andrew

With Kevin at his Capital Singers Retreat we had TWO extra Junior tickets for the BSU football game. We had often talked about inviting a couple of boys from the ward to go with us. We knew our special friend Andrew loved the Broncos and thought it would be fun to invite him. Then we found out another young lad we know, and Andrew's good buddy, also liked BSU and so the decision was made...Collin and Andrew would come to the game with us!



We had SO much fun with them. They were quite chatty on the way down and the closer we got to the stadium, the louder they became. They were so AWESOME! We rode the shuttle over to the stadium, which they thought was pretty cool. Sorry, no pics, my hands were too full to wrangle the camera. But once we were in our places it was so fun to watch them take in the scene. I was rather disappointed because I couldn't wait to see their faces when the team ran through the helmet with the smoke blowin out of it...they didn't. There was a malfunction or something so we missed that. BUT, the first touchdown was awesome and I must say the HOTDOG on Andrew's face and the sheer joy of that pretzel on Collin's face was absolutley PRICELESS! These two boys were so well behaved and so much fun. It brought back floods of memories of our own two "little boys" and why we started going to the games together in the first place.
Thanks Andrew and Collin for coming to the BSU game with us. WE LOVED IT!! Hopefully you did too!
(The ride home was a little on the quiet side. I think the cool air and long game tuckered em right out!)
