Hold On To Love.

They did it. 

They finally did it. 

Ben and Chad Truman have finally sold their first debut album:

Hold On To Love. 

Are we obsessed? 

YES. 

Did they rock it?

YES. 

Was the crowd roaring?

YES, LIKE BEASTS. 

Amongst the roaring crowed were Ben and Chad's biggest and most loyal fans. 

We were ready to go with our homemade signs crying out, "Marry Me" and "Truman, play me like a chord" (all casey's idea.)

We couldn't be an anymore proud group of friends for our Truman brothers. 

Here's a little taste of my favorite song of theirs: 

"Will He Dance?"

"Before you take his last name/ You must look in his eyes.

Deeply and ask/

Can he rock, can he roll?

Can he love with his soul?

Make you laugh uncontrollably/ Baby love you/

Baby someone to talk to/

Baby someone to touch you/

Baby someone who'll stay true/ 

If you ask, will he dance?

Will he take you by the hand?

Will he make you understand that baby you're the only one?

If the answer is yes, then baby hold on to love. 

Hold on to love."

Becca Boo.

Sometime during the Spring Semester, I became fed up with not being around my Becca Boo. 

So I bought a plane ticket, and flew into Los Angeles for a long weekend vacation

in La Canada with the greatest woman ever. 

Becca Anderson. 

Straight from the airport, Beccs took me to the beach. We chatted up a storm with our friend KJ, drank plenty of water and became lazy for the afternoon. 

On the way home from the beach we took a tiny detour and stopped by the house that the film "Nancy Drew" was shot at. I of course flipped because I lived off Nancy Drew books, unfortunately... I put off seeing the movie because I knew I'd dislike it and what do you know... I did. 

We took plenty of dips in the backyard pool. And also had the pleasure of helping Trent boy (Beccs 18 year old brother) come up with reasonable excuses to break up with his woman.

entertainment. 

speedo action. 

didn't quite make it to a Dodgers Game... 

but beccs did treat me to a day at Universal Studios. 

thanks to beccs mom, stacy, we lived off glorious sweets. don't worry a fondue pot was up and running from sun up to sun down with marshmallows, strawberries and pretzels laid out and ready to dip. the whole week. 

All set to go on our Vespa Scooter ride through the neighborhood. 

bonding time with puppy Karl. 

beccs, KJ, and wa-la. 

mikey and chandler in Irvine for our friends farewells. 

this is all Lance and Trent did while stuck in traffic on the way to the farewells. 

They watched a total of 2 movies, and about shot themselves. 

and that about wraps up my weekend in La Canada at the Andersons! 

I sure do miss my Becca Boo, but no worries. We'll reunite in August!

woot woot!

Preparations For Africa.

You got to do what you got to do if you want to go to Africa. 

We sucked it up. 

The Rescue: Aftermath.

Do you remember the world wide event Invisible Children held in April?

Did it make an impact on you?

Did you take the time to peek into the lives of these abducted african child soldiers?

Did you?

Well in case you didn't, I'll give you a taste of the goodness that went down. 

And the aftermath of our generation. 

gives you the chills does'nt it?

24 days till i get to meet my friends.

Truman.

Get a load of this.

Now, I am about to brag, so just sit tight and bare with me. 

My dear old friend Ben Truman (whose birthday is today by the way...)

and his darling brother Chad Truman 

have finally come out with their first debut cd. 

"Hold On To Love." 

Is it amazing? 

Yes. 

Will it be on the radio someday?

No doubt about it. 

Due to their father being a part of the Diamond Rio Band: 

I think they have fame up head.

It's intense, sticky and wild.

Sara's birthday lasted two days and we couldn't have had more fun with it. 

We decided to camp our little selfs in the canyons of Provo

and call it a celebration. 

And that it was...
