thriller 2008: or how i felt sytycd matt's waxed chest


we saw ghosts, goblins, and ghouls when we went to see thriller on friday night with our posse--it was a beautiful night to be outside and we weren't scared not one little bit.....



okay, maybe just a little. this is how mia watched half of the show.



showing our part in "multiplying and replenishing the earth"--who are all these children and why are they calling us 'mom'????




mia was exhausted after being emotionally scarred by the various creatures from the underworld. watching the show from underneath your finger-tips can take a toll.



katie & bailey pose with lorena bobbit--



b-rad and abbey were all about bubbles the clown--



so here's the part where our night got REALLY interesting: we figured out after the first number that matt dorame from so you think you can dance was the lead dancer. we were so excited! we knew he was from yewwwwtaaahhhh and that he had been a member of the odyssey dance company, but we had no idea he would grace us with his excellence. jody, kristin and i wanted to take a photo with him afterward, so we gathered 'round, all the while telling him how we had voted for him and how great he was, blahblahblah.

we were just about to take the photo when our friend steve walks up, says, "if you are gonna take the photo, make it count. you need the MONEY shot." and rips open matt's jumpsuit and unzips it halfway.........

i look up at him, mutter, "ummmm. sorry 'bout that." and then we proceeded to get the MONEY SHOT:



i'm not sure if he'll come back to southern yewwwwtaaaahhh again anytime soon.

Oh, he's comin' back. I can see it in his eyes.

The picture of Mia is adorable. That's how I watch scary movies, but I'm not nearly as adorable.

Awww man! You really did get the money shot.

Nice going re: Matt from SYTYCD!! Given the smile on his face, I'd say he'll be back in southern Utah; you haven't scared him away yet.

Love how Mia "watched" the show.

Love the money shot! My little guy Hyrum went that night with My sis-in-law Becca. He came home and had nightmares. UGH! Was it really that scary? I must admit I have never been.
