Our Bohemian Rhapsody

Today was the first day of our trip. We went up to LA to see the Hollywood sign, Rodeo drive, Chinese Theater, Walk of Fame, and such. It was quite the experience.

We went to pinks for lunch:



We ate dinner at our favorite California Mexican restaurant, El Cajallon.

And we got to end the day with Moms favorite song, Bohemian Rhapsody.

Thirty.

Thirty Switchfoot concerts. Thirty! I cannot believe all the great memories I have had with these boys for the past 6 years. They have all been worth wild, but last night was different. It was the best experience ever.
First off, I didn't need my tickets so I had the priveledge of giving my tickets to the sweetest little boy and his dad. They got to go backstage. He was so cute!


The meet and greet was an unusual setup, but turned out to be one of the best times talking to the guys.



I got a pic from Tim, he signed it: 


I also got to show Jon the drawing I did of him for my school's art show that won first place in its category! He loved it, and wants a copy:)


...and of course Jon, being the fabulous guy he is asked me what song I wanted to hear to celebrate my 30th show. I picked by far the best show ever in concert, Gone (sorry Ike, I know you don't like it anymore...) and he said he would give me a shout out....sure enough... at the end of Gone he says "That song goes out to Jordan" let me tell ya...I did not think he was going to do it. I have to admit I had a fangirl moment for the first time since my first few concerts. But its okay, i regained control of myself very quickly. 








After the show I worked Merch with Bobby. It was my second or third time working. We had so much fun! 


Best guy ever. Love you, Ike!

After working merch and everyone had gone I said by to Bobby until June:( but then I went to talk to Jon again. I told him thanks for the incredible night and the shout out...and he FINALLY got to see my car tag in person...not just in pictures...


I'd say he liked it!


Next up...BROAM!

2011 Bro-Am!


This morning, like previous mornings, started off with breakfast at Swamis! Yummy peanut butter smoothie! On the way to the beach we noticed to famous surfer statue was decorated in BroAm attire! What a great way to start the day!:


When we first got to the beach (about 8:30) we saw Jerome. He is NEVER at the beach before like 11, so we had to document it:




After we talked to Jerome for a while we went down to the beach where the guys were surfing. Here's some of my favorite pictures:


Tim Foreman

Jon Foreman

Tom Curran





Unfortunately, the Switchfoot surf team did not make it to the finals. But they did put on an awesome show...which was no surprise. And we got to watch the show from the VIP tent! thanks for that, Dad..And happy fathers day! we love you!:


I will upload videos of the guys surfing and playing new songs tomorrow!

Seal Lions, Baseball, and Loud Music


So this morning we started off with a breakfast smoothie from swamis and went to see the sea lions in La Jolla! The sea lions were so adorable! We had so much fun watching them! Here are some pictures:







After going to see the sea lions we went to Pecto Park, which is the San Diego Padres baseball field! Jonathan and I both loading up on Padre merch! Here is some pictures of that...So sad we couldnt take jonathan to see a game!:



After visiting Petco Park, we went BACK to Swamis for lunch. Burritos! Yum! Then we were off to the fair!:

Huntington and Newport Beach

Well, today started with a wonderful strawberry/granola waffle at our favorite restaurant, Swamis. Then it was off to Huntington Beach. Here are some pictures:







...then we went to Newport. By far the prettiest place to take pictures in California!




After taking tons of pictures and doing tons of shopping we went back to the hotel to get ready for the Auction....
