Good Intentions


We had really good intentions for a really fun day last Saturday, sadly it just wasn't what we hoped for.
Danny found out through a guy at his school that BYU was playing rugby down at Stanford this past weekend, and since Danny used to play, he really wanted to go. Especially when they won their game Friday night and were in the finals Saturday. I was excited to go and do something different, and figured we could head down to the outlets while we were down that direction. We looked up online that the game started at 1:00, perfect. Jaxson would just be ready to go down for his nap and would fall asleep in the car and be all rested up ready for the game. So off we went leaving us just enough time to park and walk to the stadium. Jaxson fell asleep in the car as planned, but that is probably the only thing that went as planned. We hit traffic on the way down, so we got there late. That was ok though because the guy at the ticket window told us that BYU actually didn't play until 3:00. We were really excited. We hung around waiting for the next game and come to find out, BYU didn't play at 3:00, they played at 5:00. We decided to try to hurry down to the outlets since there was only one store we wanted to go to. We realized we would be cutting it close and maybe miss the first half, but danny felt bad that we wouldn't be able to go to the outlets if we just hung around. We rushed down to Gilroy to find that the pants we wanted to get for Danny weren't even there. So we picked out a few shirts for Danny and Jaxson and tried to speed back to the game. By the time we got back to Stanford, there was only 10 minutes left in the game and BYU was getting spanked. I think it was like 35-0 or something. Danny ended up just running over to watch the last few minutes of the game while I fed Jaxson in the car. Not quite what we had in mind.
We didn't realize it would be so sunny and warm so we ended up spending 20 bucks on a really ugly adult sized hat for Jaxson. haha oh well...

Sadly I'd have to say that too many of our planned days end up that way! But hey, at least you attempted to do something exciting and you got to enjoy the sun and that hat's a great investment considering it will still fit him in 10 years!
