Sugarland

I had an A-MAH-ZING night last night!!!! 6-8ft from Sugarland?  Can it get better?  I think not!!!


Vanessa and I got General Admission Tickets to see Sugarland, this put us in the Sugarpit.  We got their early, but not terribly early.  It was raining and all and we didn't want to stand in the rain.  However, we did get unlucky and when we thought we were going to get in, finally stood out in the elements, and it started to rain again and for 10 minutes, we got rained on.  I looked a little like a drowned cat/rat take your pick.  So as we got into the arena and down the stairs to the pit, I expected it to be full...not at all!!! We took our standing "seats" where we wanted, right front center.  We couldn't believe how close we were.  Maybe 6-8 ft from the stage. 

The show started with Sara Bareilles, which was a tad odd for a country concert, but she was good all the same.  (left)

Then Sugarland came out, this is how they started, and this image is not zoomed!!!! (above right)

My night was this!!! I enjoyed every minute. 

I even caught a guitar pick from Jennifer after they sang Baby Girl!!!! So awesome! Definitely a great night! Thanks to Vanessa and Sugarland! 

To end it, I'll share probably the worst picture, but puts it in perspective kinda....This is a terrible shot of me, but it shows how close Vanessa and I were to the stage.  Vanessa struggled to get me and Jennifer into the picture at the same time. 

Love

Friends are blessings to all

Moving around you make and meet new friends, this is fantastic because you get to meet so many different people that all touch your life in so many ways.  The flip side, the sad side, is that when you move you also leave these friends behind, in physical space anyway.  I feel so blessed to have met all of the people I have in my life.  I do, however, miss those that I was close to while in that place and now we do not get to see each other.  There are to many to name, but they are from each location: Kearney, Norman, Raleigh, Wichita, Reading.  

 I don't do good enough about calling people, I always feel like I'm bothering them, but I should get better at it.  I am so excited to hear the phone ring and see who is calling.  I wish I had all the money in the world to go and see everyone  often.  Many of these friends have moved on themselves to new and exciting locations.  I keep all of you in my heart and my mind.  I think of everyone often when different things come up.  Such as a certain song that we would sing to in the car, or a place we use to eat, or an activity that we use to do.  Memories are everywhere and even just for a split moment, I'm thinking of you all.  Thank you all for what you've given me in life.  I am truly blessed. 

Love
