I had such a great time with Clayton on Saturday. I'm so glad that I have such a great brother! I was kind of going crazy on the way to the concert. Clayton might have thought I was loosing my mind, I'm not sure. I didn't really know what to do with myself. Even now I don't really know what I want to write, because all I can think in my mind it "I WENT TO REBA AND IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" But that doesn't even explain it. It was like the first time I went to Disneyland after coming home from my mission. I had been looking forward to seeing Reba live for such a long time, and it finally happened. Anyway, back to the story. I was crazy on the way there... No surprise. We wanted to get there early, and try and change our tickets to ADA seating. However, all of the ADA tickets were sold out. But we had great seats for Clayton. He didn't have to go up or down any stairs and only had to scoot in nine seats, and we were close to the ADA seating and I was able to put his scooter in the ADA area. That was nice. Oh and the doors didn't open until 6:30. That was crazy because the show started at 7. It did start on time.
Lee Ann Womack was really good. However I was a lot distracted because Reba was coming next! I don't know a lot of Lee Ann's music, but I did know some of her stuff, and I had fun listening to her and trying not to get to crazy. Really Clayton is awesome, because he put up with me all night. When Lee Ann Womack was finished I was so excited!!
REBA WAS COMING!!!
There she is!
They showed a little clip of what Reba has accomplished before she came out. So we got to see a LITTLE clip of Little Rascals, Tremors, and The Reba show. That was fun. Then she came walking on stage. It was so exciting. She was so fun to watch. She really put on a great show. I took a lot of pictures but they are all the same... well kind of the same, because she is singing... But I think I got some good ones. And lets be honest I'm really excited to share them with y'all.
Near the end of her show she started talking about The Reba show and here came Melissa Peterman running down the walkway to the stage. That was awesome!! Melissa played Barbara Jean on the show. She acted a little crazy and it was AWESOME!! She wanted to sing "I'm a Survivor" with Reba. It was fun. I have a video of it I will try and get it on here sometime soon. It is a little long but so worth it!
This was AWESOME!
Reba did come out and sing "Fancy" as an encore. That was fun. She is so fun, and really she sounds so great live. I don't really know why it is so different then on CD but it is. I loved it so much!!
"Fancy"
Then the King of Country came out... George Strait. I have to be honest I was kind of let down. He wasn't very fun to watch. He can't really move around a lot, because he plays the guitar. So he just stood on one corner of the stage and would sing two songs then move to the next corner and do two more. Really not entertaining. The people around us were really entertaining. Clayton was sitting next to one guy that would pump his fist every time a new song started, like he was saying "I love this song." Which is what I said to Clayton at the beginning of most of Reba's songs, but it was really funny. This guy also cried a few times. And the lady in front of us was a little nuts. She was calm most of the night, but a few times when George would start singing she would jump out of her seat and scream!! It was awesome. There were a few older couples there too and they were really fun to watch. They sang along to all of the songs and would sway. They were cute. We had fun people watching! Oh and George Strait had a crazy light show. Clayton said it was from the 80s. I loved it!! So funny!
The King of country!
It was raining after the show. So as we went to the car my hair got wet, but only on the left side... I guess, because when we got in the car I felt my hair and it was starting to curl, but only on the left side. It was scary!! Really glad it didn't do that on the way in. I would have scared everyone! Clayton and I were starving by the time the concert was over so we topped at Wendy's on the way home. I think the guy there thought we were nuts!! The radio was kinda loud because we couldn't really hear... And I forgot to turn it down at the drive threw... And I started to get the tired giggles... Every thing was really funny, but not really. I don't know we had a lot of fun on the ride home. I love Clayton. Thanks for going with me Brother!
My crazy hair after the show.

I was totally crazy!!! You would have loved it
I love that you two have such fun together. I also love that the guy close to you was so emotional. I feel lucky to have such great cousins that are also my friends. Even if you get crazy about Reba.
That looks so fun!! I always come away from concerts more in love with the music than before!! I'm sure she was great!
