BYU Womens Soccer

Jackson and Amanda sharing the number 9. This is now Jackson's favorite number and notices it everywhere we go.







This is from the MWC championship last year. This year it was in Vegas and we weren't able to go.



After going to close to every game Jackson and Cosmo became good friends.


Here is Jackson with the whole team, this was such a big deal for him. To go out on the field and sit with Amanda and the Soccer team. He still talks about it.


For the last five years we always look forward to BYU Women's Soccer. Our cousin Amanda has been playing and she is such an awesome gal. She is beautiful, smart, & sweet. She is just one of those people that you feel good about yourself when you are around her. She just concluded her final season at BYU. I think we went to almost all of her games. It began to be something we looked forward to. We are so proud of Amanda and her perseverance with soccer. She got injured , she didn't play much at when she was an underclassmen. Then she became one of the stars of the team. They won the MWC championship last year, and this year. They also got to the second round in the NCAA tournament, they played USC (reigning NCAA Champs) they held in to double overtime and then lost it in a shoot out. We are sad to have the season end, we always enjoyed Steve and Dara coming up and hitting Cafe Rio and eating chocolate cinnamon bears while watching the game. Jackson loved going to the games and would scream as loud as he could, even if Amanda wasn't on the field at that time. Then when we would go and see her after the game he always ran and gave her a hug. It was some great memories. We love you Amanda !!!!

I'm just so jealous you got to go to so many of them! If only I lived in UT! :) Don't tell Ryan that! But I LOVE the family photo! So cute! I'm glad you appreciated your yum yum cup! We made a special trip (or used it as an excuse) to yum yum because we wanted you to know we were thinking of you!
