Practicing Gratitude 9.28.17 ~ Bran's BU Official Visit


- Oh my GOSH that we got to be a part of this amazing weekend with such once-in-a-lifetime opportunities!

- Coach Rod's tweet the week prior


- Bran felt good about his choice of playing his football game (we won by a landslide) and missing BU team dinner. And he walked off the field yet again with no injuries!

- Even after driving down late after Bran's Fri night game, we rested well and woke up well


- Cookies and lanyards on the hotel bed waiting for us
they even knew his jersey number


- Staying at the Hilton with the BU football players - cool to see them around and ride up elevator with them

- Sat morning farmer’s market with the other recruit moms, Maggie and Nikki Strauss

- Getting to meet the other recruits (7 total) and their parents
The Magnificent Seven (ha!)

- Recruits and dads attending team workout
holy moley
 - Rummage sale from the BU baseball closet (thanks, Maggie!)

- Boys’ photo shoot and baseball team tailgate on baseball field



 


 - Loved getting to know the other parents - terrific families

high school classmates!
- AMAZINGLY fun football game v. OU - wow! Really amazing atmosphere in stadium and so exciting even though we lost 49-41, it was a close game and we were all shocked

- Mom staying with girls for Joy’s vb tournament, helping when she was injured, took Essie to Fuzzy’s to watch BU game when our tv wasn’t working - hilarious - and the policeman who told Essie, “I want a little girl just like you someday, a little girl who's as big a football fan as you are"

- Watching the game with Hud
My perk of watching BU play well with Hud - he's more fun to watch than the team
- A bright green and gold future ahead!
