I want to brag about my husband for a minute. Morg is in the Architecture program at the U of U. For his last project in his studio class they had to construct a display that was about recycling. So Morg and his group built there model. Well then the people of First Night which is the big downtown party for New Years Eve at the Gallivan Center. Came to the school and picked four of there favorite projects from like 50 projects. Well of course Morgs group got picked (they had the best idea). They then had to build a 10 foot size replica of there project to be on display at First Night. So they built a globe out of metal, chicken wire and over 4,000 water bottles.
Morgan and Ryan (a guy from his group) were on the news wednesday morning on channel 2 and 13. It also made the front page of the Utah section of the SL Trib Thursday morning.
We went down weds. night to check it out...It was so Awesome! There were so many people taking there picture in front of it. People just standing around staring at it. It was so funny because three teenage girls asked Morgan to take there picture in front of it. Well I told them that he actually built it and they dragged him into there picture.
It was so fun and I was so so super proud of my hubby! He worked so hard and it totally paid off! I put some pictures below so you could check it out!

Wow! That's pretty impressive. How long did it take them to build it? And where did they find that many water bottles? It's actually quite pretty...

That is awesome! I just dragged Tyson (our 12 year old) over to see the pictures. **He wants to be a architect when he grows up so anything cool related to architecture I HAVE to show him. :) GO MORGAN!
