Sorry to all my readers who may have checked this without any updates!- It has been a busy busy past 2 days. I am so sad to tell you i did not have my camera while i was at home last week, so sad to say I have no great pictures of the twins game or Rihanna concert.
On Wednesday, me and my fiance took the light rail downtown and had a few beers before the twins game. We cheered and ate hot dogs and pretzels and took the light rail back to his parents place.
On Thursday- the day i have been waiting for for months has finally arrived! The Rihanna LOUD Concert. We drove downtown at 4 o' clock, got a little turned around thanks to a poorly updated map on my boys' iphone. But eventually we made it over to Kierans' Pub and met up with Nick's dad before the concert.
When we got to the target center i was just so thrilled to sit down because we had walked at least 4 miles, and i was in heels. Blisters to say the least. Nick had tweeted our seat number for a chance to win upgraded seats..
After J. Cole performed, about 4 guys came running up the stairs towards us in KDWB shirts- i honestly did not even realize what was happening. WE WON UPGRADED SEATS! First level 7 rows back, off to the side of the stage so we were even closer than some people that had floor seats. I was so excited screaming and running to our new seats. Ha.
The concert was so inspiring and just left me utterly speechless at points. Rhianna is a trend setter, fashion icon, a women who speaks out against abuse and her fearlessness of what the media will portray her as, is what makes her one of my greatest role models. Her songs may not always be the "classiest" but like a famous women once said- "Well behaved women seldom make history"- Laurel Thatcher Ulrich {Professor of Early American History at Harvard University}.
There you have it! Just a quick ketchup on my past 2 days. Sorry for the lack of photos. You can look forward to my new blogs. Each v. or episode/series will feature a person that is in my wedding party!
I'm so jealous. can't believe you got those seats!!! ahhhh. what an amazing day
