Happy Birthday to Me!

Yes, I am one of those people who loves their own birthday, and this year was no exception! About two months ago, Matt started teasing me, telling me he had already bought my birthday present. But he was sneaky, he didn't use our credit cards, or money from our accounts, he had his brother buy the present so I had no way to figure out what it was. After about a month of pestering him ("Is it this? Is it that?"), he gave in and told me we were going to the Jason Aldean concert on my birthday! Good job Matt! I was so proud of his gift-buying and secret-keeping skills.

On Friday night, I went to Thriller with Kamie and Kendra, then Kendra and I drove up to deer camp after the show to hang out with everyone. The morning of my birthday I really wanted to see a deer get killed so I went out with Diet, Randy, and Brad in the truck. I wasn't about to get up with Matt and Lance and ride the four-wheeler in the freezing cold while it was still dark. We did see a deer, but not one get killed. We went back to camp, had some scones, and I convinced Matt into taking me on a four-wheeler ride. Again, we saw a deer, but not one get killed.

After our ride, we headed down to Salt Lake for our concert! The concert was at the E center (I don't know what it's called now), where the Carrie Underwood concert was a couple years ago. Wow. I have never been to a more party-like concert. Seriously, half the songs were about beer or drinking, and even two of the three acts drank beer on stage. Luckily, we did not get any beer spilled on us, nor did we sit by anyone who was too drunk. We did watch the drunk people leave and that was hilarious! The concert was fantastic.

Thompson Square, who sing "Are you gonna kiss me or not" opened:



Followed by Chris Young, who sings "Voices," and "A Good Man," among others:



And finally, Jason Aldean! Wow, what a great performer. I was singing the whole time. I'm sure the people around us thought I was drunk too.



Thank you Matt for a very fun birthday, and for giving me a reason to wear my cowboy boots. He also bought me a concert shirt to add to my collection. Good husband award!
