College for Crazies

Last month the boys school had a college bound day, they were encouraged to wear something from their favorite school. So it turned out to be a 'wear your parents alma mater day' and all of our kids dressed in BYU blue! Although BYU is a fantastic school, I don't want to claim that as my own. I attended the more 'prestigious'(not) Southern Oregon University or SOSC (southern oregon state college, in my day)!

Could they be any cuter??
(and yes, I did talk to my boys about the weird camera face, what does that represent?)

On a side note, the boys came home the other day saying 'ducks rule, beavers drool', I am so glad they are learning important life lessons at school! If I had to choose an Oregon team, my vote is for the Beavers, because their colors are orange and black, and we all know how much I love Halloween!

I thought the day turned into a ducks/beavers rally for the big game. My kids, who have never watched a college football game in their lives, came home from school rabid ducks fans. It worried me a little so I sat Sophie and Abe down just to make sure they know: you don't pick your college based on their football team.

Cute, cute photo.

Go Cougars! That is a darling picture. I can't wait to see the same shot in about 12 years when they really are headed for BYU.

Yeah, that day was overwhelmingly DUCK related. Nathan came home from school saying that "Beavers suck". Thank you Allison! We had a 'talk' about that word. But, they sure look cute in their byu gear until they are old enough to have their own oppinion!

I don't know if you can tell or not, but Ben refused to wear BYU blue that day, since Josh didn't. He's wearing a Star Wars shirt. What a weirdo. Love the pics, I'm putting it in the yearbook for sure!

How in the heck did they get those BYU shirts? Do I need to do some shopping???? There are problems.....
