Happy Monday friends! For all of you at home because you had President's Day off, I hate you am happy for you. After my eventful weekend, I could have used a day off! But alas, I wasn't that lucky. On Friday I was off work at 11:30 so the gals from my carpool and I did a little thrift store shopping and had lunch together. I have to say, I LOVE thrift stores. We found a new one that we really liked. I did pretty good. I bought a purse and hat and only spent $12 total. I thought I had a picture of both on my phone, but I guess I didn't take one. I'll post a picture later this week!
After an afternoon full of shopping and Chick Fil-A, I met up with the BFF and we went to see The Vow (oh yes, two movie dates with Channing Tatum in one week, I'm a lucky, lucky girl!) ;)
Me and the BFF- it was taken in a dark theater so it's not the best picture. |
I'm not a huge chick flick person, but this movie was okay. It was cute, not the best movie I've ever seen, but it was pretty good. If you are a die hard chick flick fan (or just like seeing Channing Tatum with no shirt on), I would recommend seeing it in the theater. If not, I would Red Box it when it comes out on DVD.
Saturday morning I woke up to rain hitting my window, and I could tell it was a cold and miserable day outside. I finally got my lazy body out of bed about 1:00 (for the record, I was awake about 9ish, I was just sitting in bed watching TV until 1:00). Kohl's had sent me a 30% off coupon, and I felt it would be rude to at least not go by and say hi (this is how shopoholics justify going shopping). And just because I know you are dying to see what I got, here ya go. I actually did pretty good, I only bought three things.
Hooray for new work outfits! |
I got home about 4:30 or so and was preparing for an evening of intense DVR watching when a friend of mine called. He had two extra tickets to the Darius Rucker/Lady Antebellum concert that night and wanted to know if a friend and I would like to go with him. I told him no, I would rather be a lazy bum and stay home by myself instead of going to a free concert. I'M KIDDING!! Of course I said yes. He called back a little while later saying he wasn't feeling good, so he actually had three tickets. He dropped the tickets off at my place and my friends Lea, Laura and I went to the AAC for the concert.
Our view (taken before the show) |
Some friends saw on Twitter and Facebook that I was there, so I was able to meet up and say hi to them.
My friend Leaneth was also there! |
Got to meet one of my Twitter peeps! |
The concert was great. The group Thompson Square opened the show. I only knew a few of their songs, but I thought they did a great job! This is my probably my favorite song of theirs.
I absolutely love Darius Rucker! I think this is the third time I've seen him in concert. I would say that he stole the show and was my favorite part! :)
And yes, he did sing a few Hootie and the Blowfish songs! ;)
Lady Antebellum did NOT disappoint. I had never seen them in concert before and I think they did a fabulous job! :)

Sunday afternoon I drove to the other side of the Metroplex for the BFF's jewelry party. It was pretty exciting that I got to hang out with her twice in one weekend (this rarely happens). AND I got to see my sweet god dogs! I got home about 6 and was beyond exhausted. I think I was in bed about 8:30. See why I need another day off to recover?? :)
Hope everyone had a great weekend!!
Hope everyone had a great weekend!!
XOXO!
Love that song! LA is actually one of the few country artists that I like. And yes, it sounds like you do need a day off to recover!! Lol.
ReplyDeleteI have been singing Need You Now since the concert. LOL. I actually had to download it. Don't get me started! Darius totally stole the show! Thanks again for the invite! :)
ReplyDeleteOh wow, I'm sure that was a fun concert!
ReplyDeleteHow freakin lucky to get FREE tickets!!! I am so jealous! I am glad to hear it was so good though because I did buy tickets and will be seeing them in June!!!
ReplyDeleteSO SO jealous! And just proving my point that you get to do a lot of cool things/get a lot of free tickets! Would love to see Darius and Lady A in concert.
ReplyDeleteCan I please live your life? FREE LADY A and Darius Rucker tickets? NOT.EVEN.FAIR!
