Big Country Bash 2011

We had a blast yesterday at the concert.  All the acts were great.  Here is a glimpse of our fun yesterday...

The first several acts included a local Jason Brown, The JaneDeer Girls, JB and the Moonshine Band, and Steele Magnolia...

Below is Josh Thompson.

Here are me and my friends/sister at the bash.  

As you can see, the clouds were starting to form earlier in the day.  Below we were trying to stay dry during one of the downpours.

This was Colt Ford during his set.

We made friends while standing in line to get corn dogs.  They had a deal of five corndogs for $20 or you could buy them separately for $6 each.  

Here is am with Eddie Hatfield from the morning show on 92.5 radio station.  We both work out at Farrell's.

Here we are again, trying to stay dry when the next shower came through.  This one was more of a downpour, so we covered up completely with the tarp.  :)

When Dierks Bentley came on stage, we worked our way to the front stage.  It was awesome.  I even got a guitar pick from him.

Trace Adkins finished off the concert.  When he started his act, I got a text from Joe.  He was on his way to get us because there was a BIG storm coming.  He only got 4 songs done and they made him stop and said we had 10 minutes before the storm hit.  

We packed up everything and headed to where Joe said he was waiting for us.  So along with thousands of other concert fans we trudged through the mud.  When we got to the van, it was stuck in the mud.  So some strong guys helped push us out and then we gave them a ride to their car.  We picked up a few others along the way.  Just after we let them off at the cars, it cut loose.  The hail started falling and the wind picked up and the rain was coming down in sheets.  By the time we got home, the storm had mostly passed.  I am so glad that we had Joe drop us off and come get us, because we would have been stuck in the mud/parking lot for hours.  We LOVE you Joe!

Alright, I got out my Halloween scraps a while back and made some cards.  Here is one of them...

I have a few more Halloween cards I will share over the next few days.  Then I am going to share a bunch of cards to celebrate Christmas in July.

Check back again soon!
