Summer Concerts.

Over the last month we have been lucky enough to make it to a couple concerts. That means a couple date nights. The concert last week was on Ryan vacation so it was nice to get a babysitter for the night and go out to eat before the show and not have to rush home for bedtime. The concert last month was on a work night so poor Ryan only got about 3 hours or so of sleep.
Last week we went and saw Gretchen Wilson, Big & Rich, and Cowboy Troy. It was an awesome show. The best part was it was a smaller venue so you could see pretty good from every seat. The way they had their play list set up was pretty cool. The kinda went back and forth, Gretchen Wilson would play and sing in their songs and they would do the same with her songs.
And I could definitely people watch there all day long. For sure some interesting looking people;) I almost started taking random pictures of people because it would have made for an awesome post....hahaha.
Sometimes I just can't get over what some people wear. It's mind boggling.

Last month we went to see Sugarland. I LOVE Jennifer Nettles! She is so freaking HOT! Next time I told Ryan we are going in the front row, whether he likes it or not. I order the tickets anyway so I will just surprise him once we get there. Plus it will give me more room to dance...hehehe.  We couldn't see all that great from where we were sitting, eventually we moved and ended up standing (that way I could shake my booty). It was just too far away. But we also saw them a week after that horrible accident in Indiana where a wind storm came and their whole stage collapsed ending in tragedy. So we were thinking they probably didn't have their usual stage set-up that might have had some jumbo tron screens. It was still an awesome show and I would for sure go see them again.

And these pictures were taken with the phone. Oh how I love my new iPhone! And I am loving Instagram. I am totally obsessed with both;)  The last concert we went to before these two was Nickelback and that was last fall so we were over due for a show.

Have you been to any good concerts lately?

Oh and a random question.....Does anyone have the upgraded Picnik? And is it worth getting?

iphone.

Last week we finally got new cell phones.....THANK GOODNESS!!!! Of course we went with the iphone since Verizon finally carries them now. These phones are so cool and I now know why everyone that has one loves it. We are still learning how to use it. So if anyone has any tips or cool apps you know of please let me know. We just figured out how to close down apps the other day {i think that's why my battery was draining so quickly} I had like every app open......whoops.

Of course I had to get the pink cover.....I am on a pink thing lately {i used to hate the color pink}.

I am not going to go into every reason why I love my new phone so much but I am going to tell you the apps I am currently obsessed with at the moment. I LOVE Instagram, craftgawker, foodgawker, and the MLB app {you can set it to your favorite team so when you open it the current scoreboard is up....of course mine set for the Giants}. I would post the follow button for Instagram  but I don't like the way it looks and I have no idea how to change it, it's kinda funny looking and small...haha.

Earlier this week I received the giveaway prizes I won in the Bubby&Bean giveaway a couple weeks ago. Of course I took the pictures with the new phone and used Instagram.

I think this is my favorite print from Bubby & Bean.

"Coming Home" from Studio M.M.E. Illustrations. Now I need to find a place to hang it;)

This is the necklace from Little White Chapel. It's so pretty....I just love it. I haven't had a chance to wear it yet {it's super hard to wear any jewelry around kids, they pull on everything}. There are so many items I absolutely love from Little White Chapel. Hopefully I will be able to treat myself to a couple of my favorites soon.

I love how this picture turned out in Instagram. It's hanging from some silk flowers in a ceramic vase we have in our bedroom {it's current location so it doesn't get destroyed by the boys}.

So there you have it....We finally got new phones and I can talk longer than one minute without the darn thing shutting off and they take waaayyyyy better pictures and video than the Blackberry.  And of course I am hearing rumors that an iphone 5 is coming out in September.....just our luck!

Have a great weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
