2 bands in the same time slot...

So what do you do when 2 of your favorite bands are playing in the same time slot?

This happens a lot at outdoor festivals like Coachella & ACL and it seems like they are playing at opposite ends of the park every time. I think I lost 2 pounds just by running around all weekend. True Story. Anyway, Fred wanted to see The Flaming Lips so we (Jacob &I) split up with him to catch Switchfoot first because I have never seen them live at an outdoor fest and also because they are more upbeat. Then we ran to hear the end of Band of Horses set which was mellow & awesome! It worked out perfect since I heard the songs I wanted to hear most! 

I love love love his voice!

OMG so the girl standing next to me did not understand personal space! and she had a lot of room!
she kept slapping and flipping her hair in my face, and she almost slapped me with her paper fan over and over! I seriously thought there was a hidden camera or that one of my friends told her to do it.
I just kept looking at Jacob laughing in disbelief...then she walked off.

and Band of Horses is such pretty music.

So I pretty much hang out with whatever friend wants to see the same band as me, sometimes I roll solo because it's all about the music at ACL! I think all my friends feel the same way.

Sorry my photo's were so far away at Band of Horses I could only get clearish screen shots.
I think they came out pretty cool though. That's one of the sucky things when you catch the end of a show. You're not likely going to get to the front especially with a crowd like this one.
Anyway, I don't like to be that pushy, rude, sweaty, stinky person forcing their way through all the people who earned their spot waiting in the front. I won't say I never do that, but I always say excuse me, sorry, can I get through, and i look for an opening, and I ALWAYS WEAR DEODORANT!!!

Have you been to any outdoor music festivals lately?
Were you at ACL?

i'm the girl who always had guy best friends. always.

i grew up with 3 guy cousins who have been my constant best friends, so i guess thats why

i have always been more comfortable hanging out with the boys. i feel like they are more loyal and  they were more fun for certain things like the beach, skate park, snowboarding, camping, bathroom humor, road trips... then i realized later GIRLS were cool too. some girls. hahaha.

i thought this would be a fun new post to get to know each other without an overload if information.

just one fun fact each week.

 

me and my constants. Taylor, Darin, and Pepper.

funerals bring goodtimes....this weekend the bruno brothers came in town for a funeral, which sucks, but to make good out of it we took a day off to be kids again and go to schlitterbahn!i missed these boys, its been over 7 years since i have seen ross, and 3 years since i've seen jacob! too long, but it was for good reason, they were in the army and i am so thankful they made it back safe. after this long soaking day we hit up rudy's bar-b-q! it was the perfect day!

if you have not been to schlitterbahn or rudy's, pack your bags and go now!

next day....annual float trip!

we were off to float the river. i think it's hillarious actually. everyone looks like lazy cows going to one place to get in a tube and just chill for hours. i love it! click here for explanation of tubing. 
thank you @sheaisawesome for that link! perfect.

you know you do this when passing a trucker. i'm trying to get him to honk! but i look like a hilbilly.

hahaha this is the best. everyone needs a kellee. she is the reason for this trip. kellee now lives in newyork but came into town to float like every year! the tube rental place remembered her from last year!

they asked her" are you the girl in the red bikini from last year who was walking around for hours looking for your friends?" bahahahahahaha! oops. kellee got left during last years float trip with no clothes, towel, phone, money, or flip flops:(

after a long float we discovered that nick and krista lost their keys in the river! oh no!

dairy queen saved us that day bc hungry people = grumpy people

then we look over and our kellee was picking flowers without a care in the world!!!

oh kellee we love you! thank you for making us laugh all the time! there is no one like you:) don't you forget it!
