Week Recap!

work mond-wedn. as usual.

Thursday evening we went to Justin Moore at the Wildhorse Saloon.  I had never been there but it is PERFECT for concerts and I can't wait to go back.  It's a huge room with 3 (I think) different levels.  You can go to any of the levels and get a seat (if you get there early enough) and set around the balcony or you can do what we did and stand on the floor and get really close to the stage.  Brit and I had just seen Justin Moore at the Miranda concert and I fell in love with him then.  He is awesome, writes a lot of his songs, and is a great performer.  I love ALL of his songs and his new one "If Heaven wasn't so far Away" is so touching, I just love it!  We met Brandon, Blake, Brook, and Danielle at Hooters before the concert and had dinner.  Anyhow the concert was awesome and I had a great time, although I was worn out!  We went straight home after the concert

 Chris Young made a surprise appearance 


Friday, I spent most of the day working on pictures.  That evening Josh, Jake, Brandon, and Christy came over.  Be played P&A, country dance on the wii, and drank lots of alcohol.  It was nice to have a night at home.

The boys passed out...

On saturday I went to see baby brother at the hospital and take them his car seat.  He's grown so much and is so adorable.  He was supposed to come home soon but he keeps having apnea's and brady's so they are gonna hold onto him for a while longer.

After that, I went to watch Logan race for the 1st time...I'm gonna do another post on that!

Sugarland!!!

2 weekends ago we went to Nashville for Sugarland.  By we, I mean Me, Alan, Brit, Thad, Jo, Noah, and Hatcher.  Brit, Jo, and I had planned on going to the concert for a while and Thad's Birthday was also that weekend so we decided to do it all at the same time.  Of course, the guys did not go to the concert.

Brit, Jo, alan, noah, and I all rode together and we ended up going to Starstruck Studios (Reba's studio) to visit Chris (Alan's Friend.)  Alan had been a couple of times before but the rest of us had never been.  Chris showed us around the whole studio!  It was awesome...
Outside of the studio...



After we left there, we went to our hotel, met the rest of the crew and started pre-gaming.  After we all got ready, we went to Hooters, well Thad and I made a pit stop at the Harley store to buy some shirts for each other, ate dinner, had a few drinks and then split up.  Who knows what the boys did or where they went.  All I know is that when we met back up with them after the concert Thad and Noah were WASTED, Hatcher was gone, and Alan was sober.....lol!

Moving on, the concert was AMAZING.  I lOVE, LOVE, LOVE, live music and concerts and I've really never been to a concert that I didn't love, but this one was amazing.  It was almost as good as Garth Brooks.  Jennifer Nettles has so much energy.  She was jumping around and dancing everywhere!  Jennifer and Kristian's voices are perfect together!  Little Big Town opened for them and although I didn't know many of their songs I still really enjoyed them!

After the concert, we met up with the boys at Big Bang.  They got Thad on stage for his birthday and it was hilarious!  We also met up with Court, Brit, Danielle, and Brook there...Love those girls!  Big Bang was super crowded and really hot and we all got hungry so we walked next door to paradise park, ate, and then got a taxi back to the hotel.  The girls came down for a bit and then we all went to bed.

It was a great night!  And I'm so thankful to have great friends who like to have a good time...

Next concert on the list...Justin Moore...April 21st @ Wildhorse!

Oh, I almost forgot.  Jo about got in a fight with some ol' hag at the concert.  The people in front of us were standing and so were we and she asked us to sit down.  Ummm, hello!  It's a freakin concert.  If you didn't want to have to stand up to see you should have requested a different seat....like one on the front row of any of the levels, or even and the end of a row!  It was hilarious.  Although, when the left the poured a whole bottle of water all over he seat and her north face...lol!  crazy women!

Toy Story 3 on Ice

I finally broke down and decided to start blogging!  I have been thinking about it for a while now and finally decided to start.  When I was younger I always kept a journal.  I still have them and I love to look back and read them. 

Yesterday I took Logan to see Toy Story 3 on Ice in Nashville.  We went with Samantha and Jordan.  This was Logan's 1st time in Nashville (that I am aware of.)  We went to Diana's Sweet Shop to eat.  It's a cute 1920's candy shop but they also serve food.  Logan and I both had sandwiches and then we all shared a hot fudge sunday!  We let the kids pick out some candy and then headed to Bridgestone Arena.  On the way into the show Logan had asked about getting a toy.  I told him that we MIGHT get one on the way out.  I hate paying $20 for those toys!!!  So after the 1st intermission he said he was ready to go.  I knew he was only saying this because he wanted to get a toy.  We stayed for the entire show and then stopped to get a toy on the way out.  Both little ones fell asleep on the way home. 

I wasn't really sure if Logan enjoyed the show or not.  Today when I was taking him to meet Mom I asked him what his favorite part was and he told me the "fire part" and the part at the beginning when Buzz came out of the sky.  Mom let me know later on that he had called Richard to tell him about it so I'm convinced that he did like it.  Next time I guess I'll just give in and get him a dang toy before the show.

Tomorrow I am heading home for Bubs' 1st Birthday Party.  It seems like just yesterday I was going to see him in the hospital when he was born.  Kids grow up WAY WAY to fast... : (

I'm working Monday-Wednesday this week and I'm looking forward to getting it over and having a relaxing weekend.  I have been going non stop with work, cleaning, crafts, photo sessions, and editing since we got home from the cruise and I think its time to SLOW DOWN a little bit!
