I heart Carrie!

Craig and I were able to go to Carrie Underwood's concert this week! I bought the tickets online months ago, we were both looking forward to a fun date night out on the town! We were going to go to a nice restaurant and really just enjoy the night! Well.... wrong turn, after wrong turn, we ended up running late. I was starving because I didn't eat lunch (saving room for a delicious dinner). We saw that there were some places to eat by the Jobing arena so we thought we could hurry and grab a quick bite. All the eating establishments had over an hour wait so we were about ready to give up when Craig walked into Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville, and asked how long the wait was. Sure enough the wait was an hour and a half but, we could order from the bar. So after watching a wonderful conference, we went in to the bar and ordered dinner. It was not that good I wouldn't recommend it, however, it filled the hole and by that point thats all we cared about! We ate as fast as we could and walked over to the arena ready to let loose :). Sons of Silvia were the first to perform, not a fan! Then Billy Currington opened, he was soo good. I now kinda have a crush on him even if he has scruff, curly hair, and looks like he needs a shower! At last Carrie came on and of course she was fabulous! She looked gorgeous, her stage was awesome and she can SING!!! My favorite part was right after she sang "Jesus Take The Wheel" she broke out into "How Great Thou Art", she had tears and it was so powerful! I loved it! Even though the night started off a little rough it was so fun just hanging out with my best friend!

I swear I put on make up before I left the house... I'm not sure where it went!
My new crush Billy :)

And there she is.... We did have some good seats!

Looks like quite the fun night! I saw her open for Kenny Chesney about 4 years ago and she was amazing- I can only imagine she has gotten better since then! You guys look darling in your cowboy get up!
