Last weekend, we made our way to Stanfurd, in the hopes that the Bruins would dominate the Cardinal, courtesy of Judd's mom and sister (his birthday present from them). (On a side note, I still don't understand how the color "cardinal" and a tree are in any way related, but I guess that's Stanfurd for you -- completely irrelevant.) We even donned our matching UCLA gear, complete with "eyeblack" to fight the glare of the sun (yes, even I, a Cal fan who only roots for UCLA to support my husband - unless they're playing Cal, of course - dressed in the UCLA garb; it was for his birthday, after all). But, it was all to no avail; UCLA didn't win. Final score: the dumb trees - 24, the not-so-mighty-that-day bruins - 16.
Our hopes for a beat-down on the Stanfurd campus crushed, we headed over to Ted and Lesley's house to watch Cal's homecoming game against USC. We were hoping for a Bears victory, but that didn't really pan out, either. Unfortunately, my Bears seemed to be hibernating, allowing those silly Trojans to walk all over them. Final, embarrassing score? 30 to 3. Good thing we have a bye tomorrow; we really need it!
Here are some pics from the UCLA-Stanfurd game:

Wow. Just wow. She looks so grown up here!

Gotta post up in the shade to beat the heat!

Well, fine! If the Bruins can't win, I'll just steal a Stanfurd water or two! Take that, you silly Cardinal!
