BYU vs. TCU 2010

Every year that BYU plays TCU we have to make the trip up to Dallas.  I mean, you have to start them young, right?  The day was warmer than we would have liked, but the kids enjoyed themselves both by having their faces painted and eating all the junk you can buy at sporting events.  Each kid had their own style on the face painting.

Emma went for the subtle, don't-you-know-I'm-beautiful look.  By this point she had accidentally wiped away most of it.

Matthew went for the all blue face with just white BYU letters.

Josh went for just letter across his face.  If you can't tell that is a white Y across his forehead and nose.  He had sweated away quite a bit of it at this point.

Zach liked Matt's quite a bit, so he started doing his own version.  Only a slight difference being the flesh outline around the white letters.

Overall, it was a fun day spending time together.  We only wish that the team had been able to pull out a win.  Next time, for sure.

Little Girls!

Long ago, I had only three little boys.  Then I became pregnant with a fourth and wanted another little boy.  You see, I KNEW boys, I had everything I needed for boys, I lived, ate and breathed boys.  It seemed like the easiest thing.  Then I found out I was having a girl and, quite honestly, it made me quite nervous.  What was I going to do with a little girl?  And now I look back on all that and think, "What was I thinking?  I don't know what I would do without a little girl."

Who else would let/beg me to put pink curlers in her hair to sleep on so that she could wake up....

Like this?

Who else would take a dance class at the cute age of four?

  

Who else would want to take judo just like the rest of her brothers and then love it for the social aspect?

Who else would have so many cute little girlfriends and LOVE each and every one of them?
