We have never attended a BYU Football game as a whole family. NuSkin had installed during the summer new huge screens on both the north and south end zones. Byron was invited to come out on the field to light the "Y" as they lit up the screens and turned them on for the first time. We were ecstatic to finally be able to attend as a family. The older kids ended up sitting on the west side where NuSkin gave us tickets and the younger ones and Byron and I sat in our regular seats. It was quite an amazing experience. About 1/2 hour before the game started we were led out onto the field with about 100 other people from NuSkin. We were on the field at the end zone as the BYU players were practicing with Riley Nelson right in front of us along with Bronco Mendenhall. The kids were so excited to see them up close. During the ceremony it started pouring. Of course we were prepared with rain ponchos, but they were at our seats. So we got drenched. As the team made their way back on the field, we were able to line up on both sides to welcome the team back. We weren't on the front row so couldn't really get a good view of this fun part unfortunately. It was a fun experience!

We had an extra ticket, so Camille invited her friend Cara Sabin to come with us.

The new screens on the north side along with the fun lights that go vertically on each side.
It was a late game, so one very tired boy when we got home. It was also a school night, so not much sleep for these kids.
