Jimmermania

Niel and I are both BYU alumni and we will always be big cougar fans. But being a BYU cougar fan during this year's basketball season was better than ever. We all know why. The Jimmer. Even my Grandma is a Jimmer fan. We finally got to see him play in person at the MWC here in Vegas. The first night of the conference we got a babysitter for Kensie and tried to buy tickets from scalpers. That was unsuccessful. Not only did we not get into the game, but Kensie screamed for the babysitter almost the entire time we were gone. The following night we got tickets to the San Diego vs. BYU game while my aunt watched Kensie. It was a sad loss but I'm still glad we were able to go.

My brother Brannen and his family came to Vegas over the weekend for the MWC. They stayed at our house on Saturday night and went to church with us the following day. It was so much fun to have them stay with us even though it was a short visit!

Mollie and Gregg had a party for the BYU vs. Florida game. That was one really disappointing game but at least Mollie made really cool cupcakes with pictures of the BYU basketball players. It was sad to see Jimmer have a rough shooting night in his last game of his college basketball career.

But...

I'm pretty sure we will see a lot more of Jimmer in the NBA...and we will be his number one fan as long as he never sports a Lakers Jersey.

Uhhh...I have to disagree. A Lakers jersey is probably the only thing that would make Jimmer even better.

But I guess we can still be friends;)

Shawn will be so jealous you went to the game! He tried to figure out a way to go but couldn't get away from work. We did go to the Utah vs. BYU game though and saw Jimmer in action. It was amazing!!
