These Days

Last Friday night my friends Whitney and Steph and I put on our cowboy boots and drove to the Ham to see Rascal Flatts, Sara Evans, and Hunter Hayes in concert for Whitney's birthday. I had already seen Rascal Flatts in concert a few years ago so I knew it was going to be a great show! One of the things I love about country music is that the artist can actually sing and sound great live. No one auto-tunes, there isn't a lot of dancing to tire them out, it's really just all about the voice.

Needless to say, we had a fantastic time! Here are some pictures of the fun...

 Hunter Hayes was the opening act and he was absolutely precious. I didn't really know much about him because he's new to the country music scene. He's actually written several hits (including ones on Rascal Flatts' albums) and has just now released his own album. He was quite the cutie but I'm pretty sure he was born in the 90's (jail bate!). You should check out his song "Storm Warning"!  (If I were a good blogger I would have his song playing in the background but I'm too lazy to figure out how to do that.) 

Next up was Sara Evans, which was a lot of fun because she lives in Birmingham and all of her family and friends were there. She has 7 kids and they put a spotlight on all of them jumping up and down and screaming. It was really cute. Anyway, this girl can really belt it out. She was phenomenal!

Finally Rascal Flatts came on and sang all my favorite songs! They had on some absolutely ridiculous outfits on (picture a rhinestone POW/MIA shirt with white pants. Yeah.) but I forgave them and rocked out anyway. Unfortunately, this was the only picture we got of the 3 of us and it is a low quality iPhone pic. I didn't trust any of the people sitting around us with my camera. There was a lot of alcohol floating around our section.

After the concert I came home to these lovely flowers from my Valentine! Yay weekend!
