Jaden's Weekend Out!

We drove to Seattle this weekend, for our annual Mom and Dad and Jaden trip. Why Seattle you ask? Well BYU was playing the Huskies and it is closer then driving to Provo. We had a great time and the game was amazing, well at least the end was. After getting up to Seattle on Fri night at about 9:30 we went straight to bed.

All they had to do was make the extra point and the game would go into overtime. Well after the touchdown they got a penalty for excessive celebration which moved them back 15 yards. We were able to block the kick and won the game. It was amazing to be there. The BYU fans went wild. You can tell by the look on Jaden's face. It was fun going to an away game. I think we decided to do every other year at an away game so the we can visit some new places. After the game we went to dinner at the...
