I recognize that Matt's birthday was over a month ago but I can't write about my birthday until I put up Matt's. So the day before Matt's birthday I took him to Universal Studios because he's mentioned on a few occasions how awesome he thought it was and I had never been. It was a pretty awesome day. Matt loved the new Mummy ride and we were able to do just about everything we wanted. We met Spiderman and Spongebob, for the kids of course. The best part though was the studio tour backstage. We were able to see CSI taping and the Desperate Housewives Wysteria Lane. We couldn't see anyone but it was cool to know they were taping right then. Matt was pretty pissed that the clock tower from Back to the Future was no longer the clock tower. They take the same places on the lot and reuse them so it was being reused. We saw parts where Gladiator, Pirates of the Carribean, National Treasure, Psycho, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Bruce Almighty, The Great Outdoors, King Kong, Tokyo Drift, and Nacho Libre were filmed. Plus there were the earthquake, flood, and Jaws experiences that were pretty awesome. There was a little kid that was freaking out, thinking everything was real and Matt thought that the kid crying was awesome. Sensitive, huh? Overall we had a great time though and now we have a season pass for the rest of the year! Whoo hoo! Plus, Matt got his Broncos floor mats (as soon as they get here). Enjoy!

We are the Champions
Cypress 2nd Ward has officially dethroned the singles ward. Yesterday, Matt & the rest of the ward basketball team beat the singles ward in the stake basketball championships. Matt scored like 14 or 15 points - dropping in 3s like nothing. It was pretty exciting beacuse our ward's not done much in a while and the guys from the singles ward are pretty cocky & hung up on their basketball (maybe why they're still single). I feel dumb that I didn't bring a camera to take a picture of the team or something but then I probably would've felt dumb if I was going to take a picture of a bunch of middle aged men (and Matt). Oh well, something to remember for next time.
That was part of Matt's most awesome day. First, his new CD/DVD player for his car came in and his friend installed it for him. The first movie he played on it? Back to the Future. Part of me was surprised and then not so much either. Then they won the championship. Then we went and saw Spiderman 3 with a bunch of couple friends from our ward, which for the record rocked - you should all see it.
Then when we were driving home after the movie close to 1 AM, Matt almost got really PO-ed. We were stopped at a light and all of a sudden we heard screeching tires, heard a crash, and felt Matt's car move. We thought we got hit. So we drove back around the corner to get out of the way. There was a car in the lane right next to us that rear ended another car. When that guy got out of his car, he said he didn't even think he hit anything. Obviously we thought he was drunk. Turns out that Matt's car didn't have a scratch on it, no scuff marks, nothing. So apparently because the impact was so close it just moved us like a little earthquake or something. And it turned out that the guy that got rear ended was completely hammered. So we're ok, we didn't get hit, and apparently we're really really lucky that we were that close and nothing happened to us. So it stayed a great day for Matt B.
