Spud Harvest Day 7: SMURF TURF

Last week when we were talking about going to Boise, Braxton asked to go tour Boise State University. For those of you who don't know, BR is a huge BSU football fan. He's been to a few games with his dad and uncles and if it's on TV, he's always watching. He's met a few players. Michael T. Williams came to our hotel room nearly three years ago to talk to BR and give him his autograph. Pete Cavender and Tim Gilligan signed his 2007 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl DVD. Tanner is slowly coming around to football and understanding the game. Both boys were excited to go to BSU.

We had an awesome tour guide this morning. He took us all over campus and we got to see some really cool things. Braxton loved all the technology available in the ILC. Tanner was enthralled with the Art department. Personally, I liked the library. Our tour guide knew a lot about the history of BSU and kept the boys entertained with stories of what used to be. Shayne saved the best for last.


Our final stop: Smurf Turf. The football team wasn't practicing so we were able to walk out onto the field.
This is cool tour guide, Shayne, on the field with Tanner and Braxton. Then he let them run up and down the field. They discovered that the field is a lot bigger than it looks.



We had a great morning at BSU. A special thanks to Bethany for watching McKay and letting Kilee take care of Royce. The smurf turf was well worth it.
