that myers family: LeAnn Womack, Reba, and George Strait

My husband and I had the best worst date night ever Friday night! :)

It all started on Thursday evening when I first tried to buy tickets for the concert. I had two different people that I was talking to. I didn't call one person back because I was waiting on the other. The one I was waiting on told me at 6:45 that she would call me back at 8:30 when she got home to the tickets. Well, at 9, I still hadn't heard from her so I called her....she hung up on me! Ugh! By then, it was too late to call the other person back.

Friday morning I found some great seats online, but wanted to wait and talk to Matt before I bought them. So, when he called, I told him about them and he said "make it happen", so I did...LeAnn, Reba, and George... here we come! :)

I left work early, ran by the house and grabbed Matt some clothes, ran by the day care and got the kiddos and headed to Childersburg. My in-laws was gracious enough to watch our babies while we went. (I'm so thankful for them!) Matt and I had planned to go dove hunting on Saturday afternoon so we needed some extra shotgun shells (which I see now was a blessing).

We left around 4:30 so that we had time to run by Academy. We hit Inverness at rush hour and traffic was ridiculous! While we were sitting in traffic about a mile from the Summit, my car starts flashing "Engine Hot, A/C Off".."WHAT?!" By the time I got that out, the car starts beeping at me like crazy and it's flashing "Engine overheating stop engine now" ..again, "WHAT?!" So, I cut off a few people (you see, I was in the middle lane) to get over. I pulled in a road by the Marriot hotel and stopped. This is the newest car I have ever owned and it's the first one to EVER do this! I was so heartbroken. We were sooo close! Matt looked under the hood and messed with a few things and when I looked up, he was gone. He had left me sitting on the side of the road by myself. Thankfully, he had walked over to the hotel and gotten a bucket of water. Poured it where it was supposed to go and we let it sit for a few minutes. Needless to say, we didn't turn the A/C back on.

By the time we got back on 280, traffic had thinned out and we were on our way! It was 6 by then and the show started at 7. Had we not left early and stopped by Academy, we would have never made it! We made it all the way downtown and in to the concert traffic before it started giving us problems again. I got parked as quick as I could and didn't care how much I had to pay for it (luckily I pulled into an $8 lot!!).

We made our 1/2 mile trek into the arena and laughed the whole way in. This was just our luck! ha. Once we got inside and found our seats, they were awesome! We were only about 10 rows from the stage! (the pictures don't do it justice..my camera just stinks!)

Then the drama ensued again...the guy and girl next to Matt got into a screaming match with the group of people behind us. After that was solved, two people were escorted from front row and started throwing punches. Ugh, can't people just get along! :)

All in all, we had a great time and it was a trip I'm sure we'll never forget!
