On Saturday morning, Barbs and I attended Zack's, my nephew, baptism up in Heber. It was a wonderful opportunity to be with family and see Mom give a wonderful talk about the Gift of the Holy Ghost directed towards Zack and the other two individuals getting baptized. After the event, we all headed over to the Ellis' home for some scrumptious sandwiches and cookies, but since the baptism started at 11:45 a.m. and the BYU game started at 1:30 p.m. we had to book it down the canyon to make it to the game. We made it to our seats just in time to see the starting of the 2nd quarter where BYU immediately scored their 2nd touchdown. Needless to say, this was only the beginning of UCLA's butt whooping. We all know that BYU football is great, but I totally underestimated what BYU can accomplish. I hope that BYU finally gets the respect and recognition that they deserve on the national level. Just look at the score.....WOW!!! Not only was it fun watching BYU smash UCLA, but it was fun to sit with The Boys and get caught up with everyone. While Barbs enjoyed holding Matt & Katie's beautiful little boy, Ben, the rest of us couldn't stop jumping up and down, screaming and yelling every time
BYU scored a touchdown or forced a turnover. Needless to say, we were jumping and screaming the whole game. Unfortunately Barbs and I didn't scream loud or long enough because on Sunday we had to speak in church AND teach Sunday School. Talk about a double whammy.......ouch! After a long day at the game, Barbs and I were up to about 2 a.m. preparing the talks and lessons for the next day. Since our church now starts at 8:30 a.m. we barely got any sleep. Oh well, the game was worth it :)
