FANATICS: Star Wars in Concert

Last night was the long awaited Star Wars in Concert. We gave Zachary the tickets for this for his 9th birthday in April. The boys were bouncing off the walls all day, and were wide-eyed by the time we actually arrived at the Fed Ex Forum at 6:30 last night. We had an hour to walk around and see the museum and the characters. The boys loved seeing their favorite troopers!


When we got to our seats we were pleasantly surprised by our location. We'd purchased the nose bleed seats, but for some reason we were moved down a level. We were still up pretty high, but the view was great.



This is my illegal picture of the concert. We weren't supposed to use flash photography during the show. I honestly forgot. Alec reprimanded me!


The boys loved the concert. I admit it was pretty cool. I'm not the fanatic that my guys are, but the music is really captivating and it was fun seeing the lightshow and the movie clips.
This was one happy boy on the way home:


This one was asleep just a few minutes after getting into the car. I wasn't sure he'd make it all the way through the concert. He climbed into my lap for the last half hour or so and got really quiet and still (neither of which are the norm for him).



It was a great night!

That looks like a blast! Love the pics of conked out kids after a big event. I think that is a sure sign of a good memory being made.

Good F words

Hey! Not all F words are bad. The best words in the world are family, fun, food, and fabulous! I'm challenging myself to expand my own appreciation of the fabulous F words out there. I'm starting a list of words that I'll eventually write about. Let me know if you think of another fun one.
