Rise & Shout the Cougars are out in Dallas

Danny's parents invited us out to the BYU vs TCU football game in Dallas. We couldn't turn down a chance to feel like old alums and hang out with family so Danny took a 1/2 day of vacation and we headed down.. well I guess up to Dallas. We decided to board Sadie at the vet after our last not so successful attempt at letting her camp out in the backyard. 
(In the course of 2 hrs. she managed to move a cinderblock, a 2x4, pull the wire cattle fence we had stapled to the bottom of our fence off with her teeth, and dig under our fence to get out. We now affectionately call her Houdini dog!)
Anyways, it was funny though because Sadie really likes our current vet for some reason. She has never really done well being boarded, she always comes back skinny with marks on her nose from rubbing against the cage. Except, this vet for some reason she loves! Maybe the have a good view from the window or their treats taste better we're not quite sure. Anyways, we pull up to the vet and Sadie is jumping to get out she's so excited. So I fill out all the paperwork at they take her back, that's when I look at Will. I seriously think he is going to cry. He has a look of total udder betrayal on his face. He took the whole leaving Sadie at the vet thing incredibly hard poor little guy, she's his best friend.
 The puppy was quickly forgotten by the time we got to Dallas though. Will found his seat and settled in next to Uncle Scott to watch the game.
  Pre-game 
 Will had a lot of fun with Grandma and Grandpa this weekend. He really loved walking back and forth and making everyone adjust so that he could fit through :) I was pleasantly surprised that Will lasted through the entire game in good spirits. The people around us kept asking if he was just a happy kid and if he ever got upset.... um, they should have seen him at 4am the next morning that would have cleared things up :)
After private tutoring from Grandma and Aunt Crystal, Will finally figured out which team to cheer for, too bad it was a little too late the cougars finished the game with a loss. :( Oh well, we got what we came for... a fantastic weekend with some of our favorite people. Thanks for such a great weekend!
