Alicia Keys in Concert!

My favorite older sister, Janice scored tickets for The Alicia Keys Concert and invited Brittnee and I to tag along with her and my nephew Andrew!

Brittnee knows just about every single Alicia Keys song by heart AND is the biggest LAKERS fan. So going to see Alicia Keys in the STAPLES CENTER was just about the highlight of her fourteen years on earth. If only you could have seen the way she grinned from ear to ear for the entire evening!

With Andrew and Brittnee

I just realized that she's sticking her tongue out. Not sure what that's about.

We ate dinner at Wolfgang Puck's restaurant. It was super fancy. Thankfully French Fries and a burger was on the menu to cater to Brittnee and Andrew's simple palate.

When we were walking to the concert we saw this sign... a benefit for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital! Is it odd, or is it God!??? How cool is that!

We got to see the paparazzis in action. Way fun!

Not by MY influence, but Brittnee is a HUGE Kobe B. fan.

Standing next to the Grammy Awards poster. Notice the shoes? And, yes, she walked all funky to avoid the "creases." I lost it a time or two and threatened to throw them away and make her walk barefoot! Am I a mean Godmother or what???

I told you she was happy!


My too cool for school Justin Bieber look a like nephew actually posed for a photo. That NEVER happens! (He did make me promise to email me the photos so that he can upload them to his Facebook page. And do you think that I get to be his "facebook friend?" Um NEGATIVE!)

Andrew goes to take his drivers license test tomorrow. GOOD LUCK, ANDREW!

My amazing and generous sister, Janice. Thanks to her we had such an amazing and unforgettable night!



Alicia's concert was INCREDIBLE. She is a very intelligent, classy, talented and beautiful entertainer.

What a fun, fun, fun night!

Thank you Janice for dinner and the tickets and thank you Alicia for an unbelievable show!

I heart Keith Urban ~ Escape Tour 2009 Concert

I'm a huge Keith Urban Fan. Love him. Maybe even a little bit obsessed with him. I've always loved his music ~ his hopelessly romantic lyrics, dreamy voice and musical talent. So when his Escape Together 2009 Concert Tour Tickets went on sale, I snagged 2 of them ASAP and counted down the days to SEE KEITH! So how cool is it that my favorite Country Singer is a HUGE supporter of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital? I thought he was a good guy, now I KNOW he is! :O) Together with other country music stars, Keith has helped to raise over $354 MILLION!

Isn't he dreamy???? I think he needs a female backup singer. Don't you?

Carolyn and I in front of Keith's tour bus. I'd sure like to ESCAPE and be a groupie!

#1 Fan FAN!

Keith played to a sold out crowd.



Being crazy country chicks. SO fun to sing out the lyrics!

So close to Mr. Urban!

"Sweet thing the moon is high and the night is young. Come on and meet me in the backyard under the cottonwood tree. It's a good thing and I'm wishin'. C'mon sweet thing won't you climb on out of your window while the world is sleepin'. Cause you know I need you. And there's no way I'll be leavin' 'til we're kissing on the porch swing. Oh my little sweet thing!"

"...And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you. And I'll earn your trust making memories of us. I wanna honor your mother and I wanna learn from your pa. I wanna steal your attention like a bad outlaw. And I wanna stand out in a crowd for you. A man among men. I wanna make your world better than it's ever been..."

"...And silently I say a little prayer, yes I do. But for the grace of God I must've been born a lucky guy. Heaven only knows how I've been blessed with the gift of your love. And I look around and all I see is your happiness embracing me. Oh Lord I'd be lost but for the grace of God.."
What a great night!

Rock and Worship Roadshow

My friends Carolyn, Robbie and Elizabeth saw an incredible concert tonight. The Rock And Worship Roadshow came to Ontario, California. "The Rock and Worship Road Show features 5 amazing artists that share this same goal. Our dream has become a reality — providing the best entertainment and a meaningful message for a price that everyone can afford, just $10 at the door.”

So for $10 we got in the door to see some of my favorite Contemporary Christian Artists. Unfortunately, we couldn't find seats together anywhere in the arena. Apparently, people came at 7:00AM (doors opened at 6PM) to get in line! However, I "made friends," (big surprise!) with a publicist for Jeremy Camp. He sat us in the band family section! On the floor, front and center! SWEET!
