The concert was INCREDIBLE!!!

Actually the whole 24 hours break from parenting was pretty amazing. I can't believe how many complete conversations 2 people can have when there aren't 3 kids to interrupt. We left Thursday after work and headed to G.R. We made really great time....got parked....stood in line and finally got to go into VanAndel. Very nice place to watch events. We were in the top bowl and the end. The seats were great....a little loud because the speakers were pointed directly at us....hard to see John (upclose and personal) but the songs and music we WONDERFUL! He sounds just like he does on the CDs. Had an exciting dinner of poptarts and popcorn at 11:30 PM and fell asleep. Had a liesurely breakfast at Big Boy and then shopped in Lansing and Okemos until K3's game in Stockbridge. We liquidated all gift cards....some were 2 years old. Kind of fun to shop with someone else's money for a change. K3's game was great. JV won by 30 points...2 more games this week and then baseball starts March 12th.
