The day started out with Abbie getting up at about 6:30 am. We lounged around for a bit and then got ready. We decided since it wasn't raining (yet) that we wanted to walk in the BYU Homecoming parade with the Law School. Our main motivation was that they were giving out free t-shirts. You know how I love a free anything, especially a t-shirt :) So we parked our car at the RB and walked up to the starting point. We got there just in time to get a shirt that actually fit for all 3 of us. All the law students wore shorts with a nice suit coat and had a brief case. They call it the briefcase brigade- a long time law school tradition. Walking the parade was really fun. We got to throw tootsie rolls to the crowd- this is definitely a good parade to attend if you want lots of free candy. Abbie enjoyed it and was very good considering that she didn't have a nap and it was pretty cold. (Seriously, what's up with winter coming so soon??)
Right after the parade we went to Brandon's intramural soccer game. It was fun to watch him play. They were winning the whole game until the last 6 seconds. I guess a tie is better than losing. Even though it was cold, Abbie wouldn't stay bundled up, she just wanted to play :)
Then right after we dropped Brandon off to clean the church and Abbie and I went home and made lunch.
When Brandon got home, we quickly ate and then got ready to head up to Lagoon. We met my family up there and enjoyed the afternoon riding rides and spending time together. I seriously love roller coasters! Brandon probably had more fun watching Abbie than riding.
Amanda talked me into going on the Catapult with her. I was super scared beforehand but I'm really glad I went. It was really fun!
Well that was our busy, but fun day. Good thing today was Sunday so that we could just relax.
Oh, and Abbie entertained us and had fun playing with the balloon that she got from the parade.
