It's been a while....

I need to keep reminding myself to update my blog. I have like a bazillion pictures ready to show you but for some reason I have forgotten to post them :)

Ok, so Concert photos!!! Last Friday (the 8th) Cara and I went to see Lady Antebellum, Miranda Lambert and Kenny Chesney.

Now I know I should start with the opening group and then move onto the headliners, but I'm going to start with the worst and move onto the best.

So the Worst: Kenny Chesney. I know, I know, I wasn't a big fan to begin with, but I was always told that he was an amazing performer and he WAS clearly talented but he didn't do it for me. (Wow, that was a long sentence) Something about him just bored me. I have been to many concerts where I have no idea who's playing but I stand up, dance, and enjoy the show anyways...Kenny made me sit down. Nuff Said.

Right before Kenny was Miranda. Loved her! She was so fun and so talented. I don't like her albums because, honestly, she doesn't sing well on her albums. Somehow live, her voice transforms and is amazing! She had me singing along the whole time.

Last, technically first, and the best: Lady Antebellum. A-MA-ZING! Loved them! I wish they had a longer set but the first band up always has the shortest set. My friend Dave actually got to meet them after they performed. He somehow gets himself back stage at every concert he attends. I am eternally jealous :) One slow song of theirs was so good, I cried. I will definitely buy their album when I get the chance. I think their 30 minute set was well worth the price of a full concert ticket.
These last pics are of me and Cara and the wall. That's right, our tickets were all the way against the wall. We were on the side of the auditorium so the view was great. Cara was afraid of falling down all of the stairs. It didn't bother me.
