OSU vs UOU

This past weekend we made a "quick" trip to Salt Lake City (if you can use quick and SLC in the same sentence) to watch Toby and Lexy's beloved Beavers play some football. Unfortunately it was a terrible game on the Beavers part, but the whole college game experience was worth the trip. We drove down on Friday, shopped a little on Saturday and then went to the game. Afterword we drove until midnight to get us part way home, slept 6 hours and got up to continue driving since I had to work Sunday night. I believe we rolled into the driveway about 3pm.

Since it was a impromptu trip we weren't prepared with all sorts of beaver gear, so we did the best we could with what we had to support the beaves. Lucky for us it was Halloween weekend and orange and black happen to be popular colors for this holiday.

Well, some of us did what we could to support the beaves, others wore their ducks sweatshirt and was BOOed by the many beaver fans! Nojah was good about clapping for the beavers since they were indeed an Oregon team, however there sadly wasn't much to clap about this game. Hoping for a better year next year for them....

To add to the weekend of fun, I was snack mom for BOTH the 6th grade and 4th grade classes and whipped out haystack creatures (with my lovely husbands help), popcorn balls and provided peanuts and punch all with a mere 4 glorious hours of sleep and a few inadequate cat naps in a 24 hour period :-) I had to work Halloween night and was bad about getting picture of my kids but Lex was a dead bridesmaid and then I think she became a dead Dorothy with her dog toto, anyway she was something dead :-) and Nojah was a monkey! Both had fun trick or treating and are still munching on candy and sharing generously with mom and dad.
