{Tim McGraw}

I know it. I can hear you saying it. What another concert? What...do you think you are 20 again? Well, no. I won't be going to any more for a while. But I sure have had fun!

My concert gals! We sure do have a lot of fun!

Picture 1: Lady A. BIG disappointment! They were so blah. No energy. Not what I was hoping for at all! Picture 2: OK, I am not sure why, but for some reason Tim McGraw brings out a bunch of alternative lifestyle individuals. These two were dancing up a storm to the opening act! I think they were very happy from the beverages they had been drinking. Picture 3: This group of "kids" arrived like 5 minutes before the concert and just decided to take over my space. Seriously who does this? Who lays their blanket on top of yours and says, we want to make sure we don't step on your blanket. HELLO - how about find your own plot of grass, not mine.

Tim Mcgraw's show was great. He sounds great live. He has NO FLUFF - and it did not matter. It was great. Does anyone know why his drummer was encased in a plexiglass box? I am still perplexed as to why they would do this.

{Taylor Swift}

For Hannah's 16th birthday present(Besides her award winning awesome bash), I took her to see Taylor Swift. The concert was April 10th. Yeah I know, I am behind in posting...

It was a lot of fun, best part was spending so much time with Hannah. She is growing up so dang fast. We drove all the way to Fresno for this show, so we had lots of chat time.

Ray and Melissa accompanied us on our venture. Ray was awesome enough to be our driver. (Since we did not get home until 2:00 AM I am grateful it was him driving!) Thanks Ray! We had a great time with them, what concert is next guys? (FYI Melissa is Richard's cousin on the Brandley side)

Hannah and I before the show...somehow I look very old and she looks really young. Hannah was ramped up and really excited for the show. She missed half of the opening act since she was in the world's longest T-Shirt line. Melissa gave her a concert t-shirt for her birthday! She loves it!

Kellie Pickler was the opening act. She was cute, but had a hurt ankle was not able to move off the stool. Not a big performance. Actually, kind of a let down.

Were you aware that the performers have cheat sheets all over the stage? I was not aware until I was looking at the pictures from this concert...Our seats were to stage right, and we had a great view of the stage.

Taylor sang one song right there in the isle of the arena. She then hugged everyone on her way down to the arena floor. I am not sure how many performers out there really take the time to hug so many people. It was cool.

It was worth the trip since Hannah had a blast and felt like she had an awesome birthday weekend!
