Luke and Grandpa stayed to watch the team practice and Jon (yep, my Ute came), Harry and I met them for a BBQ last night. During practice, Luke ran to the top of the stadium twice. (He slept GREAT last night btw.) At the BBQ, Luke was very shy, but he met some players past and present. He even met LaVell Edwards, who told Luke that Grandpa played for him in high school. It was a lot of fun and we really enjoyed seeing Grandpa in his element.

BYU Alumni Day
My Dad played tight end for the Cougars 1963-67 and this year he invited the boys to Alumni Day at BYU. Luke was very excited and insisted he wear his Denver Broncos sweatshirt because he wants to play for them like Grandpa. I did have to explain to him that he will have to play college ball first and BYU is a great place to play. I ended up going to part of the festivities and it was fun wandering around the field and the stadium. I even ran into some old friends who played while I was at the "Y."
