BRAD PAISLEY

On September 19th, Daniele and I went to see Brad Paisley in concert. And we had a blast. Except for two drunk guys hitting on us and getting beer spilled on our purses. Other than that, we had an AMAZING time!!! Brad Paisley is probably my #1 favorite country singer with Keith Urban coming in at a close second. He put on a pretty amazing show for his All American Saturday Night 2009 Tour. He sang "Ticks", "Celebrity", "Alcohol", "Then", "Welcome to the Future", "Online", and "Mud on the Tires", just to name a few. The concert was at the USANA Amphitheater which is an outise theater. It started to rain and came down pretty good, which made me a little worried they would cancel the show early. But Brad got out there and told us he was going play as long as he was allowed and didn't mind getting rained on. He is amazing on the guitar and I think he played 3 or 4 different one's. There was a huge screen set up behind him and that showed several parts of his different music videos along with the songs he played. I sang the words to every song as loud as I possible could. Luckily that next day was Sunday and I didn't have to teach my lesson. I had absolutley no voice left. And I was so glad that Daniele went with me. She mad the concert that much more fun.










Missy's Baptism

On Septmeber 16th, our cute, little niece, Missy was baptized. She was baptized by her father, Troy Saddler. She had her grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles attend. I was asked by Daniele and Missy to play the piano for her baptism and I was happy to have that opportunity to be a participant on that special occasion. Missy just glowed and told me afterwards that she felt "clean" and "different". She is so cute!!! After the baptism, Daniele and her kids, and the rest of the Williams' clan headed over to Jon's parents for cake and ice cream to celebrate. It also happened to be Dean's, Jon's mom, birthday so we had two special reason's to celebrate. We are so proud of Missy and the decision that she made to be baptized. We just love that little girl.

Keith Urban

So, my friend Jamie had two free tickets to see Keith Urban. Her husband was unable to go because he had class for Grad School. She invited me to go and I have to admit, I have not had that much fun in a long time. Seriously, he puts on the most awesome show. He has so much energy. He sang all my favorite songs. He punishes the guitar, I think he had 8 or 9 different one's that he used through out the night. We saw his show at the Energy Solutions Center and they set up a hige stage with ramps so he could walk out onto the floor among screaming fans. He is very brave! And then at the end of the floor, there was a mini stage set up for him so he could sing to the back of the house. Then he walked through the fans back to the main stage. Later on in the concert, he walked through the fans again to another mini stage set up in the stands where he was literally surrounded by fans. It was pretty cool!! He has a great aussie accent that's not too thick. After the concert he did an encore, of course. He introduced each band member personally and they are all just as talented as he is. He dedicated a song to his wife, which we thought was super sweet. After all of that, he took the time to sign autographs to the fans who had front row seats. It was such an awesome concert and so much fun. I will never forget it. Thanks Jamie for the awesome evening.






By the way, these are not my pictures. We were allowed camera's and people were taking pictures like crazy, but I forgot my memory card for my camera. Oh well.

Mandy's Headshot's

On Saturday night, September 5th, I had the opportunity to go to dinner with Daniele and the kids. Braden was pretty lucky because he got to go to dinner with 5 beautiful girls. I gave Britney a makeover and Daniele did Missy's and Mandy's hair. While everyone was getting ready, I caught Mandy in the bathroom looking at herself in the mirror and saying how beautiful she looked. So I took the chance given to me and got come cute pictures of her modeling for the camera.

See my pretty curls??






She is such a ham!!

Football is HERE!!!!

The smell of fresh mowed grass. Gatorade bottle's. Cheering crowds. That's right.....It's football season.

On Saturday, September 5th, Jon and I attended our nephew's, Braden, first football game of the season. He play's Little League football and is a member of the Highland Rams. Their first season game was againt Jordan Beetdiggers. It was fun to watch even though they didn't score a win. But we are proud of our little guy for playing hard and doing his very best. It doesn't mater who wins of loses. It's how you play the game.
