Wait...What Hat Did You Say I'm Wearing?!?

Dad, can't you see I'm already sad? I'm wearing a BYU hat now?

You're joking...right?

Oh no...anything but BYU! Ahhh!

If you couldn't tell from the commentary, I (Melinda) posted this. (All in good humor, I assure you.) I just couldn't help myself. I grew up in a die-hard U of U family and went to Utah State. Neither place has real warm, toasty feelings toward BYU. But my dear husband, who I love despite his imperfections, grew up in a die-hard BYU family, so that explains why the hat is even at our house. I agreed to take the pictures merely because Emerson was so cute in the hat. And at this time I just wanted to give a shout out because out here in Ohio if you're LDS, then most likely you attended BYU. But for the small minority out here (Ben, Joni, Candice, and me) I just wanna say GO AGGIES! And really, who doesn't love the spot where the sagebrush grows? (And don't worry, Scott, I'm not doing the arms with the song because I'm typing.)

I love the expressions on his face! They are just so cute! He can really pose perfectly for the camera!

Ben you're child is anti-BYU? You're not the brother I once knew.

Ahhh! I'm going to have to hide these pictures from Kevin somehow. He'd be appalled that a child so young is being seen in such an evil hat... ;)

Ugh. At least Emerson is in the pictures, so they do have one redeeming quality. Everyone out here is the same way- they all love, love, love BYU. It makes me nauseous. Literally. I usually try to keep my distance from church people on the weekend so I don't happen to hear anything about them. Unlike you, I have no friends here that went to another school or are not BYU fans (besides Scott, of course).
