Friday Night Lights

Friday night was unbelievable. It has become our family night. Sami and her family, the Nodal's and our family watch BYU. Dressed in our Cougar attire, eating pizza and laughing together it has become my favorite night of the week.  Riley Nelson, the back-up quarterback, saved the game for us. It was so fun to watch as he plowed through Utah State's defense play after play. When he threw the game winning touchdown our living room went wild. Jumping up and down, screaming with excitement and hugging each other as if we had all had a part in the victory. Not only was Riley the play maker that the Cougars needed that night but we were also so mesmerized by his gorgeous locks. This hair was so impressive! I was so envious of how shiny his hair was!

The next day was very different. Caryn and I went to the Lobo/NM State game. The game seemed to be the one win the Lobos would get this year. A new head coach and a rivalry would fuel our team to victory. Sadly that didn't happen. As we got to the bleachers we noticed that many of the students seemed sick. Most had been tailgating for hours before the game and couldn't stand for more than a few minutes to watch the game. Students had began to start puking everywhere. The stench of it was overwhelming and we tried to find better seating. This seemed to be the case in every section. By this time we were down by 3 touchdowns! Our goal was to stay until halftime but after a fan fell on me we decided we should make our way out.
