Introducing, HAILSTORM

Anyone who knows Tyler, knows that he LOVES music.

They also might know that he has always wanted to be in a band.

This year, his dreams came true.

Introducing..... the newly formed band, HAILSTORM!

Below are a bunch of pictures to commemorate the band and their big moment!

Three wards from our Stake were having a "Swapa-palooza".

What is a Swapapalooza you ask?

You bring items of yours that you no longer need or want.

While there, you might spy something you need or want.

It's pretty much a glorified garage sale... except everything's free.

The activities committee asked our friend Jayd to form a band to play some music while the swap was going on. Lucky for Jayd, he knew a drummer!

They asked Ty to play the drums for the band, and he ROCKED!

Ty created a logo for the band which we transposed into t-shirts.

Here I am modeling my one-of-a-kind Hailstorm tee.

Here I am posing with the drummer of the band Hailstorm. Ooo-la-la!

Imagine my surprise when he bent down and SMACK! Kissed me right on the lips! (Okay, so we were actually trying to gross out our photographer, Talmage. It worked! Notice how he still took the picture, he secretly liked it.)

The man. The legend. Lars (a.k.a. Tyler).

The fans.... yes, they mostly consisted of wives and families. Here is Natalie, wife of the lead vocalist, Randy. Rock on Natalie, rock on!

The Hailstorm band from left to right: Josh, Randy, Jayd, Tyler, Steve and Barry.

They were so good! I'm asking Tyler to put a video up on my blog so you can check these guys out!

After it was all said and done, Maidie was the first to strip off her Hailstorm tee. She ended up spilling her lunch on it, which enabled her to ride her trike in the buff. A win-win in her book!
