Where were you the night Jimmer scored 52 points in the Mountain West Conference semifinals against the New Mexico Lobos? I was sitting right there in the Thomas and Mack Center having the time of my life. We took the whole family down for the semi finals game in honor of Jacob's 7th birthday. And Jimmer gave Jacob the birthday present of a lifetime. I'm just not sure Jacob appreciated it as much as I did. I told David I think going to the game was more of a present to me for giving birth to Jacob than for Jacob.
I had Lucas in the baby bjorn the whole night and he did great. I think after the first 10 minutes he went deaf and so nothing was bothering him. I had that blanket over his ears to help but it was sooo loud in there. However Lucas did sleep for the majority of the game as long as I didn't forget he was there and start jumping all over the place.
The Thomas and Mack is great because every chair has a back and a padded seat and there's not a bad seat in the house. The energy in there was insane and in front of us were some great BYU fans that we had fun with. We did get some crazy looks from some fans. I think they thought we were crazy (or inhumane) bringing a baby to the game or Matthew for that matter but being BYU fans is a family affair. Plus we got to see Than and Pacen Hancock which was awesome!!
I'm not really a spontaneous person and I like to plan out the details so when I mentioned to David that we should go to the game for Jacob's birthday and then bought tickets the next day I was a little nervous that it was going to be a fiasco taking all the kids. But words cannot describe how awesome it was. I love me a good sporting event and this was one for the history books. Oh life is sweet when Jimmer's in the house! The only thing missing was Greg Wrubell. We tried to get the radio stream from David's phone and wear our ear buds but it wasn't working and Greg was greatly missed. However David follows Greg Wrubell on twitter and Greg posted a link to a 7 minute clip of the highlights of the game so I got my "voice of the cougar fix" that way.
