We were so excited when BYU announced that they would be starting their 2013 football season with a game against the University of Virginia. With Charlottesville being only 2 hours away from our home in Falls Church, Virginia, we knew that we had to get tickets and go cheer on our Cougars.
It was quite an adventure, besides having two young children we had some crazy weather too. The game included a two hour weather delay in the middle of the first half with heavy rain and lightning requiring the stadium to be evacuated.
During the lightening storm we took shelter in UVA's physical science building. Evan took a nice long nap and Mommy wished she had something else to eat besides popcorn.
After two hours we were let back into the stadium. The lightening had stopped but the rain hadn't We didn't get as wet as Uncle Scott and Aunt Elizabeth because we hid out under the bleachers but we did get rained on a bit. We stuck it out and stayed to the very end. Even though there was crazy weather, even though we didn't get home till after midnight, and even though BYU didn't win, we still had a great time and can't wait for BYU to play another east coast team so we can go to another game.
