ROAD TRIP:Colorado

Last weekend on like Thursday night i believe it was... me and Brooke were returning to our room and I realized that there was a slip of paper underneath the door. I picked it up it was a flyer for a Colorado road trip. Instantly I was like that would be way fun I've never been to Colorado before... But i def had to get my parents on board so i decided to bring it up see what they thought about the whole thing. So i asked my dad and mom and got the approval on account that the weather was good and we wouldn't have to brave the challenges of snowy weather through the Rocky's.... So i went and before i give any details it was prob one of the funnest (don't care if that's not a word I'm using it anyways) trips I've ever been on.

The drive to Colorado was a long 9 hour drive we encountered ice for a little bit but that was it for weather conditions everything else was fine and dandy on the road. We drove in a 4 car caravan down and got to Colorado safely at like 12:30



Famous gas station picture with the glasses


We had a 7-11 dance party to keep warm.

Me and Rachel



Me Rachel and Brigham with I heart Cuties stickers on our heads from the oranges we were eating

We stayed at a girl names Rachel's house in Colorado springs


The group

Then next morning we woke up got our BYU gear on and went to the BYU vs. AIR FORCE GAME!


The girls


The boys quoted saying "you can't make us smile... this is our game face"

Parachutes at the start of the game who brought the football into the stadium

They did push ups when they scored
This lady came up to us during half time to tell us what awesome BYU fans we were!!

Me and my cousin... Lees and Lybberts

It's another cougar first down! GRRRRRRR!!! (Rilyn and Jackson: doing the cougar growl)


TOUCH DOWN COUGARS!!!
The group had awesome celebration when we scored jumping cheering we even sang the fight song.

Me Rachel and Kel

We brought our own cheering sec. And we are thoroughly convinced that BYU only took a victory in that game because we drove all the way to cheer and support them...:)

Dave, Rachel, Keli, and Me smooooshing our way too church.

Then we went to church and went back to Provo dorm sweet dorm.




A gas station we stopped at that didn't have any gas... funny and weird

Some of the beautiful scenery we saw on our drive to and from Colorado.

It was a way fun weekend I got to know some kids in my ward better and had a blast of a time!
