Friday after work Greg and I headed to Utah. We left the girls at home so Emmy could take the ACT and Lily could get to Nutcracker rehearsals. Saturday morning we met Tom, Rachel, and Mark for breakfast then we hung out with the kids for a while before getting lunch with Gayle, Ric, and Grandma Nani.
It was fun to catch up with the kids and we got Nani to Provo so she could go to the game with Marley. Greg and I caught up with Grandma and Grandpa Dame at the NACC tailgate. We filled up with yummy food then headed over to the game. On our way in we ran into the entire Kelly Dame crew.
It was a bit sunny for the first quarter but the game was so intense we managed to ignore it.
We ended the first half in the lead and we were on cloud nine. Andrew came over to visit during the half. We were so close to the student section we got to soak up all their energy and we could see Andrew's head now and then.
The third quarter had us worried but we pulled it together and won 28 v. 24 - BYU #8 beat Notre Dame #2. One of the biggest wins in BYU history. That was such an awesome experience, glad Greg and I were there. Greg wanted to rush the field but we left it to Andrew and the rest of the students and we slowly found our way to Marley's apartment, picked up Nani and drove her up to Gayle.
Listening to BYU radio kept us awake while we drove to Burley to stay for the night. The first few hours we were still rolling on adrenaline but by our 2 am arrival we were ready for bed. We left early enough the next morning to get Greg home for his meetings. Greg struggled to conduct Sunday because he had lost his voice at the game but so worth it.
