For Jena's birthday, we gave her tickets to the BYU Homecoming Spectacular for her and her three friends in the Wonderwood program--Sara, Emily, and Megan. We also got tickets for Gary and I and Emily's parents, but we sat behind and in a different section of the Marriot Center so they could feel like college students. Jena was so excited and we had a really fun night in Provo, despite the crazy traffic heading down to Provo.
The program include Colbie Caillat, a country singer, that I had not heard of, and David Archuleta, one of Jena's favorites. It also included all of the major groups at BYU in one big dance and singing concert. It was so fun and I loved being there and especially watching Jena and her big smile throughout the evening. Every once in awhile, I would catch her looking at us and she was always smiling. I love it when gifts I give make someone happy.

When we parked, we had some extra minutes and decided to head over to the Farmers Market at the stadium and get a photo by the pretty pumpkins.
The mountains were amazing--still green near the base, with the red middle and snow on the tops. I always loved the fall in Provo as a student with the mountains so close, especially coming from the Panhandle of Texas.
This is a photo from our seats down to where Jena is sitting with her friends. She is wearing the green shirt.
Happy 22nd birthday, Jena....not sure what we can do for next year's gift to top this. Might have to do it again!
