#BYU50

We went to look for the BYU box tonight. It was fun to get the kids all dressed up in their BYU gear trying to chase it down. We had shirts for everyone but Kate.  So we made her a bib and a headband out of a too small shirt Spencer couldn't use anymore. Spencer was super excited and looked for it all day everywhere we went on the road as we drove.
We decided to wait at the Mormon fort once it got close to the announced time for the drop off. 
A few other kids were there when we got there and after awhile along came Leslie Nebeker.  I tried to keep Josh and Kate cool in the shade but it wasn't long before I had to turn the car on and get them inside.  That's when the weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth occurred.
Josh did not want to be buckled into his seat while the boys waited outside having fun.
I guess the boys all agreed if the box was dropped of there they wouldn't fight over it...they would split it up according to what they thought each parent would want.

Then we got news via Alexis my friend that the site was posted. The container park--dang, I thought about going to a place close to the container park. We packed up and headed over not soon enough though. Someone else got it. So we decided to drive home.  At that point Kate was screaming, Grant wanted to tell me a story and listen to the Radio, Spencer wanted to figure out the name of the guy who got the box and figure out why we weren't still out looking for it. AND Josh started rubbing #2 all over his face.  I was on the freeway and couldn't do anything about it...so Spencer had to wipe him down the best he could with baby wipes. AWESOME!
