You know when you have those unexpected great times? The ones you really didn’t plan but just kinda fell together? This weekend was one of those. For lack of a better word, it was EPIC! I had my birthday dinner with the family on Friday night. Jess and Sarah and the whole band showed up. Lynsie made me this huge, three layered music cake. Marie made a delicious dinner. Ashton and I sat around jamming on the acoustic guitars. Saturday morning we got up early and had something of a band field trip, snowboarding at Solitude. Ben got us discounts since he is an instructor there. Aside from the fact that I was completely off my game and spazzing down the mountain, it was a totally fun day. I recall at one point falling in five feet of powder, and after trying to drag myself above the snow and wearing myself out. I just laid back in the snow, breathing heavy, staring at the sky through the pine trees thinking “man, this beats the heck out of a day at the office!” After snowboarding, I raced down to South Jordan where I bought a Line 6 Spider Valve head from a kid named Zack (good price too). After that I went to Jess and Sarah’s where we hand-tossed some pizzas and watched “Knight and Day” with Heather and Bryson. Sunday was a good day at church, I took a three hour nap when I got home and woke up just in time to watch the Super Bowl. Cheers and boos erupted throughout the game as the Packers squeaked out a nail-biter win (yeah Packers!) against the Steelers while we drank root beers, ate ice cream and Peanut M&Ms (Yeah Packers!). I went to bed watching the dying ember glow fading from my new amp’s tubes thinking “Man, what a weekend!”
