It was so much fun. We took the 4 hour drive to Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas. It was well worth it. We saw a lot of people we new from our church including our bishop and his family. We also saw someone famous. You can probably see him in the back round signing autographs. Ty Detmer was their as a quest speaker at the tail gate party to help us get pumped up for the game. He signed Hunter and Chandler's football. He was very nice and stayed and signed autographs up until the game started. As we were walking to the stadium we were walking with friends and Hunter was straying a little from us and Ty noticed and said, " hey! you better get over this way by your family." I didn't see him right behind us. It was very nice of him to notice Hunter straying away and then say something.
OK so BYU lost. That was hard to take in. Despite that little set back, we had a blast! I have to say that the TCU fans were very nice about it. While walking back to our car, a TCU fan said to us that "BYU is a really good team, we were lucky". I agreed with him. I immediately felt better. The BYU fans were amazingly loud. I was very impressed. We were in seats where you could see all the BYU fans.
We really had a great time. It was nice to be able to just sit and not have to worry about a baby or toddler. No changing diapers, bottles, or crying. It was nice. We got out of their about 10pm and started our 4 hour drive home. It was not as bad as I thought it would be. I drove most of the way home because I do better driving at night. The rest of the family slept. About an hour before we got home I was really tired and Travis was able to get a little nap in, so he took over for the rest of the drive.
We made it home at about2:30am. We still had to get up for school and work. We were very tired. But, like I said, it was worth it. We had a blast! Go BYU!
