We had such a great time. The Counting Crows cancelled at the last minute but that still left us with Augustana (a local San Diego band that we loved- added them to my playlist!) and Maroon 5. We were really surprised at how great they sounded and how entertaining it was!
We were in the lawn seating. It was blissful sitting on a blanket under the stars, having a whole bag of kettle corn and my husband to myself. Perfect night!
Meanwhile the kids were having a great time! We were told the highlight of the night was a game of sardines. At one point Lindsay and Shelby were stuffed in a closet with Mimi, Granddad, Aunt Jenni, Uncle Rob and Robby while Owen looked for them! Our kids are so lucky to have fun grandparents!
Owen got up early to help Mimi sweep the front walk (apparently they do this every time the kids spend the night there). Elizabeth told me later about their conversation that I thought was hillarious.
Mimi to Owen: How did you sleep?
Owen: Pretty good. But I didn't have my sound machine.
Mimi: Oh, you have a sound machine to help you sleep?
Owen: Yeah
Mimi: Oh, that's good.
Owen: Well, it's more of a baby machine.
Mimi: It is?
Owen: Yeah, but one of the songs is educational.
Mimi: Which is that?
Owen: It's the ABC song, so that's okay.
(Owen's sound/baby machine but it's okay because it's educational.)We went to church at our old Stake Center, drove by the home where I spent my teenage years,
and climbed to the top of the water tower by my house just for old times sake.

We miss you guys too! We miss your whole extended family too. Your dad and brothers were so wonderful to help us on our moving day. I don't know what we would have done without them! Can we borrow Owen for a while? He is so funny! Maroon 5! What a great night.
Can I just say that I got to have a sneak peak at those paintball emails and they are hilarious! I kept trying to stick up for Chris to Doug and let him know you can dance AND still be fully a man. I don't know if it worked, though :(
Hey Key Lime Sugar Cookies so soooooo good. I'll have to get the recipe for that one. I can't believe how big your kids are!! I remember when Lindsay was just a baby.
How fun! What a great concert! Glad you had a good time. Btw, love the shirt! :)
I so wanted to go to that concert - love Maroon 5, were they good in concert. Chad and I went to a Coldplay concert a few years back and had grass seating like that - I loved it, it was romantic and relaxing and just cool. Glad you guys had a fun time!
