*As most of you know who read this blog, our marriage was created on conflict and rivalry. As each of us entered into the agreement of marriage we fully understood the possible stress each of us may undertake throughout our lives. That's right, we each married into the rivalry of the Utah Utes and the Brigham Young Cougars.
I don't need to bring up the intensity this rivalry can have on fans or friends, even family; however, it can be tough for any Ute to walk on the same soil that a Cougar has recently been seen on, and vica versa. Each year as you all know the Utes and the Cougars face off together in what has been claimed as "the Holy War" and each year one side receives certain privileges after receiving the most sought after win.
The past two years as too many of us understand, has been a horrible and long two years. BYU winning with two lucky plays/catches to clinch the yearly rights. I am certainly proud to say:
The Utes have those rights this year baby!!
Now as painful as the last two years were, some may be able to (rightfully in my opinion) claim that the last two wins were two VERY lucky plays made by BYU. This year however, they have left nothing to chance with a very lopsided score of Utah:48 BYU:24, leaving nothing to doubt that the better team received the win, not to mention a glorious undefeated season!
What a Great Game!!
GO UTES!!

Carynn,
It was so fun to read your blog. We need to play. I am always complaining that we don't have another outdoorsy couple that will hang out with us in nature. We should go snowshoeing over Christmas break.
Carynn,
It really is fun to read your blog! I am so glad you are posting comments about the big game and recognizing the importance of such a thrashing of those lonely folk down south. I am so glad you are a Ute by heart, which obviously shows by your loyal attendance to such a great school, and supporting your husbands righteous ways of cheering those Utes on. By giving the UofU your money, and not that Provo school, you ensure your children's future loyalty to such a great school where words of courage, talent, team,zoobies and those heart soothing words 'Go Utes' will echo in your home for a lifetime.
May this season of Christmas bring you joy as you see the color of red surrounding you and those great numbers 48 & 24 dancing in your head. Tis' the season to be merry. So go give your Ute hubby some hugs and give thanks for being a Utah Ute!
