utah vs. northern colorado

score: 41-0

football season is finally here!
and we definitely started the season off on a good note.

first we went to the ute walk, so we could cheer dad and jason on.
then we went to tailgate at uncle brady's legit tailgate set-up.
he had a place from enemy territory (downtown provo) cater called Guru's.
all i'm saying is dawson and i ate 3 cookies each, and then had to sneak some into the game.
yes, they were THAT good.

 
after that we headed over to the stadium to watch the utes warm up
and guess who we found there... preiseident uchtdorf and his wife!
they came to the season opener last year and had such a good time they came again.
they sat up in the box during the game this time, 
but president said he wanted to go down on the field first so he could "feel the atmosphere".
notice he even had his red tie on!


the utes definitely had a slow start to the game.
we had an interception and no touch downs in the first quarter.
but after some amazing catches from our tight ends and a pair of touchdowns by travis wilson,
we were in our groove and end up winning 41-0.
at about 28-0, cousin jason got put in at linebacker!
he is a freshman and already getting legit playing time (he starts on special teams).
whittingham family pride!


so now football season is officially underway,
which means my stress level will be on high for the next 4 months.
we are going to logan next week to take on the aggies...
be sure to cheer us on!

that cutie in the hat is the girl that does ALL of our hair!
we sure love mandi, thanks for making us look beautiful!
