Texas Country

What a great Saturday this was. Another Summer of FUN adventure checked off my list!

My day started out slowly. It took me hours to get out of bed and get ready for the day. When I finally made it out of the house the first place I went to was Ross. I told myself I was only going to buy things I needed and not the entire store. Thankfully I made it out of Ross with only a yoga mat and a phone case. Next Theresa and I hit up Home Depot. We needed to deal with the potential bedbug crisis and the weeds growing in the backyard. From there our plan was to go grocery shopping. However we bought bug bombs for the house and decided the perfect time to bomb would be while we were at the concert tonight. So instead we went to Old Navy. This is were I disappointed myself. I bought three dresses and a shirt, all of which are extremely cute. I couldn't resit. I spent too much money and didn't even buy shorts. And I need shorts. Gah. Girls you know. The only way I could go shopping and not spend money is if I don't go shopping. Typical.

So after the $115 spent, we headed back to the house. We needed to get ready for the JOSH ABBOT BAND CONCERT. We were going to a Texas Country Concert and we were darn excited about it. Before leaving we emptied the pantry and any food in the house. Then we let the bombs loose and ran like hell.

Theresa and I picked up Luke, then met Rachel, Grace and four of Grace's cousins at the concert. To my surprise we ended up paying $13 extra dollars for the ticket. It was still worth it. There is so much that can be said about our night at Whitewater Amphitheater. So here I go.

The People. Everyone was white and country. Boots, dresses and jeans. A beer was in everyone's hands, including mine. The guys were tall and the girls were a little trashy. It was everything I expected.

The music. The concert lasted forever. Literally. It started at 8pm and ended at midnight. That is four hours of Texas country. It was probably the longest concert I have been to. Kevin Fowler and Josh Abbott were true rednecks. They drank beer on stage and cussed at the crowd. They sang about women and Texas sunsets. Truly an experience.

I would for sure love to go to another country concert. Next time buy tickets ahead of time, bring your own koozie, bring a date, know more songs and dance as much as you can.

This is Josh Abbott playing She's Like Texas. It is my favorite Josh Abbott song and one of my favorite country songs. I love Texas and Texas Country. TEXAS FOREVER.
