Homecoming was a blast this year…I’ll let some pictures do the talking.

On Friday night we went to a BYU cheer alumni dinner and connected with some good friends we hadn’t seen in a while. Here’s a great shot of April, Sandy, Kristie, Heather and David “Grant” Grant:

The next morning was the homecoming parade. Since Kristie had to be there with her squad, I decided to come along too, and we rode the entire thing on top of the Cosmobile along with a raucous party of Cougar United friends.

After the parade we headed off to Lavell Edwards Stadium where the Cougars were facing off with the UNM Lobos. As part of homecoming weekend, they had the Cheer alumni come out on the field at halftime and perform. I ran into a couple of the old-school Cosmo mascots who did a bang-up job dressing for the occasion and maintaining their secret identities:

And here are a few pictures from the half-time event:

Kristie looked awesome up there. If it weren’t for her herniated disc, she wouldn’t have anything to do with this alumni business for at least another year. She’s grateful for all that she got to do in three years, but it’s  tough because the injury happened right when she was at the top of her game. It takes some crazy athleticism to stunt like she does.

BYU won the game in a hard fought battle. Still undefeated…but they’ve got to start stepping it up if they want to finish 12-0. Go Cougars!
