The Holy War

I LOVE college football. It is the mark of all things cozy, like the transition from summer to fall and curling up by the fire watching a game or reading a book. I have even been to the College Football Hall of Fame in Atlanta, Georgia!

I was born in Provo, Utah while my dad was working on his bachelors degree at BYU. I bleed blue, I always have. Today is what is known, in the college football world, as "The Holy War".
BYU vs U of U.  

I never realized the intense rivalry of Utah's two biggest universities until I married into a family where everyone, except my hubby, attended the U (University of Utah).

 Here I am proving how blue I am:

 My midwife, Rachel is a Ute alumni so we get some pretty playful banter back and forth about which school is going to win. I couldn't help myself and so I started trash texting her earlier this week:

Here I am next to my midwife's car, she was inside the hospital delivering my friend's baby when I vandalized her car.

Here I am with Rachel and Sarah. We just finished tagging the new midwife's van, she's not a cougar fan but that's what makes this even more funny

This is my hubby when we watched last year's Holy War, I was sitting on the couch when he walked in, my oldest brother leaned over and said, "He seems conflicted."

If I am being honest, I think BYU has lost the last 7 out of 10 contests or something like that but the rivalry is still super fun no matter who wins.
