Time to snap back to reality!

Happy Friday Everyone!

Glad to see we all made it through the work week as painlessly as possible.

Yesterday was one of the best days I've had in a very long time! Even all the rain couldn't put a damper on my day! Went to work for a few hours to get some office work done and to do a couple errands. Hey getting two hours is better than getting none right? My Mom wasn't so sure she wanted to go to our first stop, seeing as how she didn't know anything about the guy singing. Luckily I talked her into it.

The events of the day started out at Smoked Out in Virginia Beach for a private show by Michael Franti. They also provided a free lunch for us as well. First off, the food was amazing and you should definitely check it out. The show they played was absolutely amazing. They definitely know how to work the crowd and get everyone on their feet. Mom was even getting into it. They did pictures afterwards, and this is where  you saw how awesome they were. Taking all kinds of pictures with everyone! This was our picture with them!!!

Michael Franti doesn't wear shoes, so we decided to be like him for the picture. :) 

After all the excitement at Smoked Out, it was time to head over to the radio station to see Gavin DeGraw. If you know me at all, you know he is one of my absolute favorite artists. My Mom and I see him every time he comes into town, and on some occasions we travel to see him! He played two songs for us at the radio station including his new single, "Best I Ever Had". As always it was amazing. I tend to prefer him doing acoustic over a big show like last night. So I got the best of both worlds yesterday! Can't wait for his next album to come out! Here is my picture with Gavin DeGraw....

To end the amazing day, it was time for the actual concert. Mom and I got our rain coats and umbrellas ready and headed out for Farm Bureau Live! I was suppose to go to another meet n greet with Gavin at the concert, but it didn't happen. Thanks to people who don't know how to drive in the rain, I was late. At least I got to see him earlier in the day right? During Franti's performance he came out in the crowd several times. Luckily he was over by me at one point and came and danced. :) Then after his show he came by and signed the pictures we had taken earlier. Train was phenomenal as always. All I can say about the concert.... It was amazing!

Here's a bit of a photo dump for you from last night! Enjoy!!

I have more pictures from the concert... But I haven't gone through them. Maybe I'll upload those in another post! Anyways I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!! :) 

...Until Next Time...

Hump Day!

Well hello there everyone! Hope everyone is enjoying their hump day! I know I'm ready for the work day to be over. Tonight I get to go to dinner with some of my ladies and I'm excited. I've been a little under the weather for almost the past week, so I haven't been doing much of anything other than laying down, taking meds, and relaxing. I'm finally starting to get back to normal, but not quite there yet. So it will be nice to get out of the house and spend some time with friends. 

Before I go to dinner though, I'm going to treat myself to a nice ole pedicure! And man do I need one badly, I haven't gotten one since before my cruise. I decided since I'll be seeing Gavin DeGraw tomorrow, I need to try to look good. :) I can't wait for tomorrow, it's going to be a blast! I'm suppose to go to see Michael Franti at Noon at Smoked Out for a private performance. Then after that, I'm going to a private performance with Gavin DeGraw. How awesome right? That night I will be going to the Train/Gavin DeGraw/Michael Franti show at Farm Bureau live where I will get to go backstage and see Gavin as well. If any of you know me... you'd know that I absolutely love him! ha. I will definitely be posting pictures of that.

Our summer kickball season begins this Friday! Which is exciting... because I'm not coaching! I finally just get to go out there and have a good time. Only problem is, I doubt I'll play this week. I want to make sure I'm 120% better before I go and make my self worse!

I hope everyone has a fantastic week!!

...Until Next Time...

Sweet Summer Time

Hello there! I'm back again. And since I have no life, maybe I'll be able to keep up with this thing again... we shall see. 

Well I think that the weather decided that we didn't need a spring season this year. I mean we went from 50's to 80's... and today it's suppose to be 93. Oh and not to mention tomorrow is suppose to be like 100! What in the world is going on!?! Luckily I work in an office with some nice AC blasting. :) 

Lots to look forward to this summer! 

In exactly a month Momma and me will be going to see Train and Gavin DeGraw.

And can I say how awesome my Mother is... pretty freaking awesome! 

Thanks to her I'll be getting to meet Gavin DeGraw again. 

I can definitely go without meeting Train again, they aren't the nicest guys.

But at least they put out some really good music!

Then in two months I'll be headed to Nags Head for a week with the family!

For once, all 5 of us will be down there together!

We didn't get to go last year since we went to Alaska so it will be nice to get back to our yearly tradition.

My little slice of heaven. 

I'm finally not coaching kickball this summer, so I will have plenty of pure relaxation time. I love kickball and all but I stress out over it too much. Luckily my cousin decided he'd take it over for me. Poor boy, I don't think he knows what he's getting himself into to. I use to love coaching but after 3 years, you kind of get burnt out. So now I just get to go out there and have fun! Maybe it'll spark my love for kickball up again!

Well tonight starts a very intense next couple of weeks. 

It's Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals between the Boston Bruins and the Chicago Blackhawks.

As well as it is Game 3 of the Calder Cup Finals between the Grand Rapids Griffins and

the Syracuse Crunch.

I'm pulling for Chicago and Grand Rapids.

I'll be glued to my tv and my laptop tonight watching both games! 

Saddening that hockey season is coming to a close though.

Well time to actually try and get some work done! 

....Until Next Time....

Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain...

Who knows where these lyrics are from?

If you guessed Hootie and the Blowfish you would be correct!!!!

I'm sure I will be hearing this tonight. As I am going to the Darius Rucker concert with my mom, my aunt, and my cousin. I absolutely love Darius/Hootie. I have seen him at least 4 times and I've met him twice. He is such a nice guy. I will go see him any time he comes around.

Please don't mind that I look like poo.

Being the lucky girl that I am, I've also met a few others. Some of whom I have been lucky enough to get pictures with. Here's a couple of others in which I've met. 

This was actually a few weeks ago! 

Train.

Gavin DeGraw.<3 

Best Meet N Greet Ever!

I love my music and the artists...

But I'm more of a sports girl.

We definitely don't want to get me started on who I've met sports wise though. 

Or else we would be here all day! 

Any ways, I hope everyone has a spectacular weekend!

Mine will be spent with family & Beth @Arrow In The Eye .
