We went to a concert

On Friday, Jeff and I dropped the boys off with my sister Sharen and headed off to Salt Lake City for a chance to see George Strait in person. It was fun to be with Jeff while he sang along with his favorite artist. Jeff really does love George Strait and has since before we met. The trip was quick, but lots of fun. It was super hot and I worried how Maleena would do, but she did great. I loved it so much before the night was over I was plotting as to the next time we would be able to get away like that. Thanks Sharen and Memo, Mom and Dad and kids for taking such good care of the boys. We missed the boys and I know they would have loved to be with us, but it was nice to get away with Jeff, Maleena is attached pretty much, so she comes along to everything.

This is the line we had to wait in-
 

 







This was right after they started letting people in. By the time the concert started the grass was pretty much covered with people and blankets. It was so packed-but it made it more fun.
 

Sorry, our camera was not that great so our pictures didn't turn out that good, but they did have these big screens and that helped in being able to feel closer.
 

The whole thing was a lot of fun. Next time, Jeff says we will be in the seats, instead of the lawn seating and then we will get a hotel room. We had to hurry home for Jeff to get back to work so that part was not fun. Anyway, I just wanted to tell you Jeff that I had a great time. Thanks for getting the tickets and making it happen. Can't even explain in words how nice it was to get an ICEE and sit in the hot sun surrounded by thousands of strangers. I love you!!
