College day at school!

Today was College Day for Madelyn and Carson, and Aubrey wore one too! Madelyn chose USC, Carson supported Nebraska, and Aubrey went with BYU! We are fans of all these schools, or at least their football teams! Why we like these schools (in no particular order):
1. USC: this is where my Dad went to Dental school, so I was raised a Trojan! I have fond memories of going to USC football games at the Coliseum with my family, taking a campus tour in high school, and taking an SAT prep course there with my sister Jennifer.
2. Nebraska: Since Uncle Nate and Auntie Jen have lived in Nebraska, we have become fans of Nebraska football! Not, as die hard as Uncle Nate, but Jon has been able to go to a few games and see the campus! GO BIG RED!
3. Last but not least, BYU: Jon's parents both graduated from BYU, so Jon was raised a Cougar! I also spent a few summers at BYU attending Basketball camp and EFY, the best summer experiences for a teenager! Jon headed to BYU after graduating high school and then returned to BYU after his mission. Jon loves watching BYU football and we have great memories from attending BYU and living in Provo! Jon didn't graduate from BYU, but he still bleeds BLUE!

It's hard to think about College already, since we have 10 years before we will be sending Madelyn to college, but I'm sure it will before we know it! I'm glad that they were excited to participate in College day at school and hopefully they will be this enthusiastic when it comes time to actually go to college!
GO BIG RED!
FIGHT ON TROJANS!
GO COUGARS!

How great that you had these shirts on hand! We didn't have any. Well except for a Utah State sweat-shirt that is about 10 sizes too big for me. My kids would have probably tripped on it if they would have worn it.
