Crazy weekend!

After living in a hole for the past two years, when I have a free weekend I am going to take advantage of it! Thursday and Friday we went to Country Fever in Pryor. It is a four day outdoor concert with 25+ bands and tons of people camp out all weekend. We went with Elizabeth and Tanner, Charley and Brad and Katie and Grant (an awesome couple that LA and T met at work). Thursday night we didn't get there until everyone else got off work and got to see Sugarland. They were amazing!




Friday Mike wanted to test out his new golf clubs and I had to go see my "little sis", so we didn't get out to the concert until 3:30. It had rained on and off in Tulsa all day, but nothing substantial. As we are coming in, we were warned by a worker that hail and 60 mph winds were coming. We spent about an hour in the Eckler's pop-up trailer playing cards while the heaviest rain came through. I had planned on rain, so I had my rain coat and didn't wear my boots, so they would not get dirty. I decided on flip-flops...bad idea! By the time we left that night I was covered in mud from my knees to the back of my head. Friday was red dirt night and the concert didn't miss a beat with the rain, mud and wind. We got to see Kevin Fowler, Stoney Larue, Jason Boland, Pat Green and Dierks Bentley!

Rain or shine, we had an amazing time and I hope that we get to go again next year!

Saturday, we had a wonderful Father's day lunch at the deVerges's. Then we immediately left to go to Norman for one of my classmate's weddings. Elise and Ben are an amazing couple and they had one of the most touching ceremonies that I have ever been to. A couple of the girl's that came had taken their Step 1 Boards that day and everyone else had just gotten done or takes it next week, so we were not a very lively bunch! That night we drove back to Orlando. We spent Sunday in Harvest-mode. Daegan loves the combines and he and I rode with Mike for about an hour. You know you have a future country boy when a 17 month old recognizes and can say wheat and combine. Mike was really glad he could spend a day helping his dad, especially on Father's Day!

Keri will be so jealous of all the great bands you saw. We especially love Pat Green! I'm glad you all had a free weekend to do something fun. We really enjoyed seeing you last week Ash!
