Glen was able to make a great recovery from his triple surgeries in time for him to enjoy the BYU/Notre Dame football game with his boys.
Abe came to town for the game and Jacob's family also came to town for the game. Ben joined the group for the game.
Nothing screams game day more than an ice cream Cougar paw...?
Claire went prepared for the ESPN College Football GameDay activities wearing her Cougar suit and displaying her poster hoping she would make it on TV with her sign.
Claire ditched the large poster and took the small bear with her to the stadium.
I do not know who the bigger BYU fan is between Claire and Jacob. Those two together are crazy fans!
Laurie, Logan, and Natalie.
Claire and Natalie.
Wesley and Emma joined the rest of the family in storming the field after the exciting BYU win. Glen had the good sense to refrain from jumping 6 feet over the wall onto the field. I was so proud of him being sensitive to his two new hips and recently-spinal-fused neck.
Claire was one ecstatic girl over the win.
She was able to get autographs from some of the players. One of the players gave her his pair of gloves when she asked. How kind was that!!??!!
Jacob's family left after dinner and we took Abe to the airport the next day. It was fun having all our children together while it lasted!
The next Sunday we had a big Ward family dinner celebrating Mom's 90th birthday.
The best surprise of all was Mark and Michelle were on their way home from visiting their daughter Hailey in California and were able to get a 5-hour layover in Salt Lake City that very evening to come to the party. Hurrah!!
What a great celebration for a very fine woman. Love this mother of mine!!
