BYU Homecoming means... BLUE PanCakEs!

My favorite part of BYU homecoming used to be that Zach would take me to the dances and we'd get dressed up and have a fancy dinner... Now those days are gone (Zach feels dumb dancing where his STUDENTS might SEE him!) so NOW our favorite part of Homecoming is the BLUE Pancake breakfast before the parade in the morning! As you can see,
Hyrum is VERY excited!


Weston is just hungry.

And Afton already had breakfast so she doesn't care what's going on...
BUT, the blue pancakes were in rare form this year,

Blue-er than ever, complete with whip cream and chocolate chips!
Of course, Hyrum, being the lucky boy that he is, reached the pancakes just as one GIGANTIC pancake was cooked to perfection and who got to eat it? Hyrum!

It seriously hung over the edge of his plate 2 or 3 inches all the way around... Does that look like a hungry, happy boy? We thought we might win a prize for putting a Y in whip cream on it.:)

Hyrum started eating his jumbo breakfast and said "Hey, this is like a Man vs. Food challenge!" Can he eat the world's largest blue pancake? Let's find out!

NOPE! The food won! But he got pretty close- not much left of that giant pancake but you can see the full look on Hyrum's face. :)
We'll have to see if next year's blue pancake breakfast can beat this! Go BYU! (Oh, there was a foot ball game. We didn't watch it (Well, 'we' meaning the kids and I. Zach actually went to it), but they did win... Just in case you were wondering.)

SOOO sad we missed the tradition! Maybe next year...Thanks for hanging out with my kids, though. They love going to your house.
