Valentin's Day Splurge with a hint of Life

Well the title might be misleading, but I think mom will be okay with it. Just wanted to post some pictures about my life and what has been happening. Well we had a nerd fest for our ward and everyone dressed up as nerds, but we thought we would take it to the next level. I did what any other nerd would have done, stuck a belt on my head, wore underwear on the outside of my shorts with a green polo, and become Quail man from the animated show Doug. Anyway we had like 30 minutes to come up with these costumes so I am pretty proud. The next picture is a random 90's dance party that Kevin and I went to. Again it was short notice, but Kevin got his best flannel shirt and butt part going, while I got an old school 90's BYU hat with an oversized jacket. We had a blast dancing

to all of the 90's classics. We were told that we

looked like Adam Sandler (me) and Macaulay Culkin (Kevin). Seems pretty accurate. Anyway, the next picture is Halloween when Kevin and I dressed up as the best comic book serie

s ever Calvin and Hobbes!! This was for our Stake Dance party that we went to. It was great. I would have to say that this is probably the most creative costume I have come up with next to being the Green Ranger last year, but Kevin out did himself as he made a box that said Transmogrifier on it, and we both had paper ship hats. We danced it up and had a great time. These next two pictures are our trip to California, LA style for Thanks Giving. It was a blast spending time at our room mate Ty Ty's house (Tyler is his real name). We enjoyed a nice frozen banana at Balboa beach as we watched the sun set. It was amazing weather and just a

great trip. We went to the Gally which is a free museum of art, but more than just paintings this place is like a giant art work

in itself. It was amazing. The plants were done up very artistically to be aesthetically pleasing to the eye, there were statues, wood carvings, modern art (not my favorite), and some of my favorite art from Claude Monet and his impressionism. They had this amazing grass there as well and I might have taken like an hour nap on it as I enjoyed the sun and thought about life.

I know this is going to be lame, but for my Valentines Splurge I went to a 5 dollar Blue Grass concert. My guitar teacher sent an email out about a concert that night. It was the Matt Flinner Trio. I like blue grass, but thought I really don't have 5 dollars on me at the moment. Then I realized that I had the 5 dollars from the Valentin's Card. So I took that 5 dollars and saw an amazing concert. The upright bass player was slapping the bass and the mandolin player and guitar player were amazing as they were picking away. None of them sang which I really didn't mind because blue grass lyrics can be kind of weird and I love the pure sound of instrumentals. It was a great concert and the players made it fun. It was a great gift mom thanks.
