The Utes win, thanks to a Prayer

I posted this picture on my facebook account, but I thought it was too good.

I have season tickets to Ute basketball. I took Carter with me. He has started Junior Jazz and is having fun...he is actually a very good dribbler. I told him we would go to the game and he could see some players who are really good at dibbling the ball. The Utes had a big game against Michigan last night. We got there early (back in college, I would get to the games an hour early to 'prepare' for big games) and we were sitting around watching the players warm up.

I told Carter that this was a big game. He was quiet for a bit and then said, 'maybe we should say a prayer.' I laughed a bit and told him that he could pray if he wanted to: He then closed his eyes and started saying a prayer. I have to admit, I kept my eyes open and fumbled for my camera.


It must have worked. The Utes won. Carter got ice cream after the game for his smart decision to pray.

Renan's brother put the Jazz on the prayer roll at the temple. I don't think that was appropriate, but whatever. The Jazz didn't win because I think the big man upstairs was angry at them......not the Jazz, but Renan's brothers.

Dorien and Trish--thanks, he is a cute kid, isn't he?

Amy--oh no, I guess I shouldn't have done it for the Utes?

Laura--us Utes are spiritual when it is vitally important to get a win. :)
