PICTURE PERFECT

A picture is worth a thousand words, and we all know I’m rarely short on those. So, here are a few of my favorite things, in picture form.

THE HARLINE CATCH:
At the risk of sounding like a Ute fan still talking about 2004, I still get chills when thinking of this moment. Never has blown coverage looked so good. Never has BYU victory tasted so sweet. It should be noted that my brother and I were dangerously close to a fist fight with several angry Ute fans about 30 seconds after this catch. It was completely unprovoked on our side, of course...

ANCHORMAN:
I could watch it a million times, and it never gets old. “Baxter, you know I don’t speak Spanish.”

SENIOR PHOTO:
Wow. I’ve seen Nikki look cute in hundreds of photos but never with so much hair. How did the photographer fit it all in?

P-TOWN:
No matter where I go, there’s still no place like home.


GLORIA:
She looks gooood after a bath.
*A special thanks goes out to Nikki’s new Pilot. Its presence has enabled me to retire the big, old Suburban and reunite with my automotive crush.


SHOCKWAVE:
My favorite Christmas present of all time. Too bad I sold it on ebay while in college. Nostalgia runs cheap when you need gas money.


BABY BURKE:
Best. Thing. Ever! Even if he looks more like a monkey with a mullet at this point, we can’t wait for our new, little guy to arrive late January. Let's hope he looks like his mom and doesn't act like his dad.

FALL = FOOTBALL

I know it is not Fall quite yet, but still we love this time of year! It starts cooling down, the leaves start changing making the mountains amazing and of course, BYU FOOTBALL!!!

We headed down to Lavell Edwards Stadium on Saturday, along with 65,000 other BYU Fans for their season opener vs. Northern Iowa. You might be asking yourself, who is Northern Iowa . . .I had to ask myself the same question!! :)

Brendan, his brother Chris and myself were overly excited to head down south to "COUGAR-TOWN!!"

The game was fun and exciting. We had plenty of opportunities to stand and sing the BYU Fight Song as BYU cruised past the Northern Iowa Panthers 40 to 17!!

**A note from Brendan: While Northern Iowa is technically not a "real" team, we look forward to stomping better opponents soon!
