Flashback Friday - Cosmo

Last night Marc and Dan Parkinson bravely took the kids to BYU to meet the athletes and Cosmo at the Cougar Kickoff while Rhianna and I played Bunco. Not only did we have a fun night with the girls, it looks like the guys had a great time with the kids! Can you believe these two with double strollers??? I bet 5 years ago they never would have guessed they would have 5 (!) kids between them.



They had some fun activities for the kids and as usual, Lila jumped right in. She is definitely built to be an athlete. She's even running with the track team in flip flops! I love the second picture. The other kids are just jogging along - but not Lila. She's full out running with her hair flying!

Now for the Flashback. Lila took a picture with Cosmo last night, but I still remember the first time she met him in September 2005. We pointed him out to her while the game was going and once she saw him, she couldn't wait to meet him. She kept screaming, " 'Osmo, 'Osmo!"Cosmo was standing on the field and we ran down to catch him. Lila didn't even hesitate to jump to him across the railing. But she looked a little scared of him last night!

She is going to be (is) a true-blue dyed in the wool BYU fan! I guess she can't help it with Marc as her Dad! I like it though since I am a fan too! :)

That really was a choice evening to watch the football studs with their babies! Didn't seem to faze them at all, tho! Cosmo should be proud of the Blasers and Parkinsons!
Go Cougars!

What amazing fathers and husbands, that's so awesome. I love the excitement in Lila's eyes, you can tell she was determined to win the race. You have such an adorable little family!

Those are some great pictures and some great dads. I never would have predicted it for them 5 years ago either but it fits them just right.
