Forever And A Day... And A First For Everything!

Hey there followers, if there is anyone even following me anymore... ha ha! It's been a really long time... Blogging has been the last to-do on my list lately. I've been super busy, and lots has happened since my last post! Lets see if I can cover everything in one post... there may be multiple!
First it seems like I have had a lot of "firsts" lately. They will be posted in no particular order FYI. I recently got to go to the zoo with Dustin and his family. Never been there before. No pictures though, sorry. I saw a rhino and a giraffe for the first time and I'm almost 22! Sad! Then, in the same day, I tried crab and lobster for the first time. Not a big sea food fan, but I will admit, it wasn't terrible. It was a great weekend. I love Dustin's family and always look forward to spending time with them! :)

OK! Then here's an exciting one! I've been to one other concert, but I've never been anywhere near anyone "famous!" My roommate Trisha and I became obsessed with this band called Parachute. They aren't a huge well known band, but they are getting there and we LOVE them! So one day she surprised me with tickets to go see them in Tempe!!!! We were right up against the fence, you couldn't get any closer to the stage unless you hopped the fence! Will, the lead singer, picture below, came down into the crowd and walked around a little bit. Yep, right past us, and then hopped back onto stage.


Oh wait, then it gets better... After the show (Parachute opened for OAR, which we didn't care as much about) Will and the band lined up for pictures and autographs :) so we took advantage of the opportunity. Trisha plays guitar and writes her own music so she even brought one of her Cd's along and gave it to him. We shall see if anything comes of it!

Another great one was the Arizona State Fair! I've always wanted to go and drove past it a millions times, but never got there until this last time it was here! Amazing! I had a blast. It was raining, and by raining I mean drenched to the bone, freezing cold, pouring rain... And I loved every minute of it! This picture below was from the BIG Farris wheel in the rain :) Good times!
There's been a few others, but these were most exciting for me. There will be more posts to come about more important things... Stay tuned :)
