BYU Homecoming

I know this was a few weeks ago but I still wanted to document this fun weekend.  I love being involved with things that are going on at BYU so homecoming was a must!  First we went on a date to the BYU spectacular show with my sister Kayla and her boyfriend Josh.  It was an awesome show, I had a great date and we got some yummy dessert afterwards.
Next on Saturday morning I ran the Cougar Run.  I know a 5K isn't that impressive but I have been consistently running and training these last few months trying to improve my speed and distance and was really excited to run this race.




It was so motivating to have Matthew and my kids there watching me at the finish line.  I ended up coming in third place in my age group!   Next goal: 10K.

We also stayed for the BYU parade which was right after the race.  My kids loved seeing the fire trucks, bands, and the candy being thrown at them.  I was most excited to see Kayla dancing with the BYU Ballroom Team.



 While we were in Provo we decided to go into the canyon to check out all the pretty fall leaves.  We rode up the ski lift at Sundance Resort and just enjoyed the nice fall weather.  So many trees were bright red and yellow.  It was so pretty!



The kids loved being up so high while riding the lift and you could tell we were from AZ.  We were the only ones all bundled up. We are not used to cold weather yet!
