Birfday Magic

For those of you who don't know, I am in another competition that I am determined to win, but probably won't. It's with Talyn, my girlfriend, and the game is this: whoever doesn't post every week has to take the other to get sweet potato fries. She may make claims that the winner gets taken to Texas Roadhouse, but it isn't true. Anyways, on to more important things. Since my last post, I

played snow football,

had a delicious bbq, and....

had my birthday!

I had my 22nd birthday and I was hoping to have a quiet evening with my friends and girlfriend; however, my plan was foiled, but in a good way. Talyn (shown above) got a hold of all of my closest friends and coordinated with her sister to throw a party for me at her sister's house. It was totally unexpected.

 Talyn is a really good liar (is that good?) and threw me off by saying we would celebrate my birthday on the 5th (the actual day). Instead, the party happened on the friday before. There were awesome treats there and the cake itself made the party. We finished the party by playing a dance game on the xbox kinect and called it a night. Thanks again to Kierra and Deveren for hosting the party. I had a couple of tests this last week and I escaped their wrath pretty well, beating the average handsomely on both. I also got to go snowboarding twice since the last post. On one of the days, there was a foot of new powder and it was awesome. The last time I went boarding, I took a nasty spill and landed right on my head. I didn't have a concussion (thank goodness for helmet that has speaker and a subwoofer in it), but I had some pretty nasty whiplash in my neck. Thanks again for the Harlan family for letting me stay with them in Park City and how awesome they are.
