Friday So we went to the BBQ at Barrett and Jeanine's and had a blast with everyone! Katie joined us a little later and it was great to have her there with the family too. Then we went to see Batman, Dark Night which was, close to the greatest action/suspense film ever. There were some awesome messages within the story and some great story line along with amazing dialogue. It would be a great movie to Analyze for an english class or something of the sort. A perfect way to end the night!
Saturday
I woke up saturday morning and debated within my head whether I wanted to go to Utah Lake with Beej or not, but I knew I would have a good time as much as I didn't want to get up and going... quite yet haha. But I ended up going to the Lake with Barrett and Curtis Marshall, later joined by Matt Row. The water was rough enough that we didn't do any skiing or wakeboarding so we just chillaxed! We played a lot of smash-ball from the front of the boat to the back of the boat and chased down a lot of loose balls. We got home at about 1:30 and I headed home to get ready for my piano recital.
I practiced a lot leading up to the recital... but it never seems to be enough and I can't figure it out. I didn't play as well as a had wished and I was more frustrated/sad then I let show on the way home, but it's okay... I'll just do better next time. I was in an anti-social mood and so when I got home I played with the Rubiks Cube and painted some of the White Rod Iron fence in the Front of the House. I took my time cleaning the office afterwards cause I wanted time to think and be alone.
On my way home from the office I went up towards "Y" mountain past Timpview cause I didn't want to go straight home. I drove up on the scooter to see the sunset and the lightning storm... The valley looked amazing with the orange glow about it with the white flashes on and off. I started to head home and realized I was going to catch the storm. it started to sprinkle and three... maybe four seconds later it started to POUR! I rode home with the biggest smile on my face (when I could open my eyes) because I was loving the rain, even though it hurt when I was going 45 mph. I passed Kyle Hansen and the Mckell's while I was on my way home and they were out in the rain too. So I stopped and we ran through the gutters and rode around even though it was a little cold. We found some places where the water was over the sidewalk and up to our shins! After a while of the puddles and the rain dying down, we ran and got into the Mckell's hot tub for a little to warm up. Then we made Hot Chocolate and played a game called Queen Elephant! It was probably the best ending possible to such a horrible day. One of my favorite nights of the summer for sure!
P.S. We need to play Queen Elephant next time we're together... so remind me!
This is the Rod Iron Fence before I painted it. :D I'll put up the painted one.. eventually.
