ahhhhmazing.

last night my brother and i went to rent walle (i left my birthday copy in keokuk...) and we watched it with mom and dad. then we watched cars. it was great to just relax together.

today i got a lot of Christmas shopping done. very good. then tonight my dad took me out. it was SO much fun. we went down to the square for the lights of the ozarks. they turned all the Christmas lights on and had a parade. the best part was the animal hospital float that had like 50 people walking their dogs behind it. so funny. then we went to eat at loafin joes, hot sandwiches are the best on cold cold nights. then we went to the walton arts center for a concert by chris thile and the punch brothers.

chris thile used to play mandolin for nickel creek. he plays crazy bluegrass songs. he's a genius. so now he's playing with this band called punch brothers. SOOO much talent in one band. so amazing. so, here's the link. http://www.myspace.com/punchbrothers

they just were so amazing live. its like, i have no idea how to explain it, it was just magical for me. for you? i dont know. you haven't seen what i've seen or grown up how i've grown up or liked what i like, so it might not have been as magical for you. but man, i loved it.

i wish timmy could have been there. but he was too busy trying to be a good minister in nashville. i miss him.

love.
