Prioritized Daily Task.  

BYU and UCLA football game.  Saturday, November 27⋅7:30 – 8:30pm

Location:   LA Memorial Coliseum.    3911 Figueroa St, Los Angeles, CA 90037, USA


 I had my personal prayer, and later prayer with Debbie.  I studied scriptures.  I found my car keys; they were in a jacket I wore yesterday.  The children are playing.

I went for a walk and jog this morning.  When I got back to the house Melodie and Beth were taking some of the children to Annie's Canyon Trail located near Solana Beach, California.  Ava had been there once before and told her mother I will not come here again.

We left about 4:30 PM to go to the football game in LA.  I rode with Brett, Rae Lynn. Some of the children rode with us and the other rode with Matthew and Melodie.  We stopped at Chic-fil-A for dinner.  I did not have a ticket to the BYU and UCS game.  I got in for free but went back when I found where all of our family was sitting and bought a ticket with the help of the USC ticking office for $21 online with StubHub instead of paying $75 for the cheapest seats at the ticket office.  

It was a good game, BYU won, 35 to 31 for USC.  The game we watched on TV before leaving home between Alabama and Auburn was more entertaining.  Auburn was leading 13 to 0 for Alabama, halfway through the 4th quarter when Alabama got 3 points on a field goal.  With about one and half minutes Alabama went 98 yards Alabama scored a touchdown tieing the game and going into overtime.  It was the 4th overtime before Alabama beat Auburn. 

I rode with Matthew, Melodie, and the girls home.  It was about 2:30 AM before got home and to bed.
