You guys are really nice.  I completely appreciate your words of encouragement.  I always want to try and keep a Christ like attitude when it comes to touchy subjects, but also want to protect my work in a professional manner.  Thank you for understanding…A big thank you with sincere appreciation attached to it.

So moving right along 🙂  Last week Josh Kelley and I had a concert date with my SIL Jen and my nephew Cooper and none other than The Lumineers.  It was too much fun.  This was only Coop’s 2nd concert ever, so it was fun to experience it with him.  We ate crazy good burgers from The Pharmacy before hand and Coop drank the most killer malt ever.  Like ever, ever.  And he shared with me because he’s just cool like that.

Laura Kelley Fun Fact #43  I prefer a chocolate malt over a milkshake any day.  Mom always would bring me malts from Sonic and now they just make me think of her.  Josh Kelley, on the other hand, would prefer a McDonalds chocolate shake.  And that right there is just crazy talk.  How did we marry?!?!?!

Dr. Dog opened for The Lumineers and weren’t half bad.  One of the members looked dead up like Bob Dylan…sang like him too.  They were lively and I liked their dance moves and their some-how-worked-and-flowed-together outfits. #diggin’themustardcardi

I thoroughly enjoyed The Lumineers.  Maybe it was because I have their entire CD memorized and it really is fun to sing loudly along with strangers.  Or maybe it was because some members from Old Crow Medicine Show showed up and did several songs with them…which was kind of totally awesome.

Or maybe it was because when they played Hey Ho I got a little misty eyed.  From the moment we learned about Amon’s heart condition it was pretty much my anthem to him…all the way across the oceans.  So to hear it live with lots of other people singing along, well, it kind of did my heart good.

Whatever it was, it was definitely a good night.  Enjoyed being with some of my favorite people and hearing good music, enjoying yummy food, talking things over and laughing.

And when it was all over and done with, we were all ready for bed.  A super late Monday night and needless to say, Coop was in need of sleep when I picked him up from school the next day.  I think we all needed naps.

Have you heard anyone good in concert…any faves out there?  I’d love to hear about them.
