FIFTH ROW

So Eli and I heard that Maroon 5 was coming to Hershey and OF COURSE we HAD to go since they are one of our FAVORITE bands...although I might be slightly more obsessed just because of the Adam Levine default!  

 The bonus came when we found out that Maroon 5 was touring with Sara Bareilles (love her) and Counting Crows (featuring Side Show Bob from the Simpsons...but we will get to that later).  It was an AMAZING concert, of course it didn't hurt that we had 5th row center tickets!  

Here are a few of our favorite pics...

The concert opened with Sara

She had a fantastic voice and played the piano while she sang a few songs...keep your eye on this one!  She will be around for a while.  She also mentioned that she went to college with Maroon 5...I can only imagine what kind of stories she has about those guys!

She is so cute!  
Then came Maroon 5...LOVE THEM!!
Adam vs James in dueling guitars
I heart Adam!
Butt shot for all you ladies! (Actually I think Eli took this for me, thanks honey!)
WORTH EVERY PENNY!
Then came Counting Crows, which I must admit I haven't listened to their stuff since high school.  They were actually really good live, I think it was due to their "herbal aid" that they were so "relaxed" about the show!

Ok is it just me or is Adam Duritz Sideshow Bob from the Simpsons?
Side Show Bob
Here we are drenched in sweat but having the BEST time.  Concerts are some of the best people watching, check out the background peeps!  Ok, scary man about ready to go postal on the place and that poor woman picked the total wrong time to lean over!  
We had a fabulous time!!

The countdown is on...



So this week my brother and his family are coming back from China!  They have been gone since March so I am so excited to see them and my two favorite little nieces!  Here is a little shout out to my girls!

These pics of course are from when we went to Disneyland right before they left.  Aren't they so funny?  Seriously these girls just kill me!  They forced me to put on this Nemo hat (which had been tried on by who knows how many little sweaty kids all day) and they insisted that I hold a pirate sword to protect myself.  From what you ask...probably myself, I can get a little carried away in my favorite place on earth!  


That is the smile from one satisfied pickle customer!

Also this week, my little brother, who is not so little anymore, is coming back from Brazil!  He has been there for two years and I am so excited to see him!

Just a few days and my entire family will finally be on the same continent!  Can't wait...
