In The Zone

To start off with, I ask you this: 
how many of you can honestly call your Mom your best friend?
Because I can! And I do!
Perhaps it was the way I grew up;
Single mother, only child. 
We always had each other, no matter what. 
 And we still do, and I love that!

This past Friday night I had an awesome time with my mom!
We grabbed some coffee, drove to Seattle {while busting moves and singing at the top of our lungs}, tried a new Thai restaurant {which was so good}, and rocked out to an ah-mazing Kings of Leon concert!!! 
This was my third KOL show, while it was her first.
I told her that she was in for nothing less than a treat!
And Heck yes, did they deliver!
It definitely helped that we had fantastic seats...
basically a backstage view from where we sat!
The Local Natives opened for them, and I am honestly not that familiar with their music. 
But geez, were they good!! Then there were the Kings...ahhhh. How I love them so!
They opened their set with 'Charmer', which is a slightly older song {2007}, which I wasn't expecting! And while they obviously played songs from their newest album, Mechanical Bull, they played quit a few older songs from their first albums!
I LOVED IT!!!


As cheesy as this may sound, being at a live concert makes my soul wake up!
It truly is good for my soul!
And it is honestly where I am the most in "my zone". 
All in all, a great night was had by all!

Right Now...

I am sitting here with the sun shining in the window, and jamming out to my favorite tunes.
Spring has officially sprung and the sun is actually shining here in the PNW!
 
 
And when the sun shines, I turn my music up a little bit louder, and enjoy it a little bit more than usual! At this particular moment, I am listening to my favorite band: Kings of Leon.
Speaking of KOL, I have to say that I am beyond stoked to be able to say that I will seeing them live in exactly one week from today!! Yesss!!
 

In fact, I couldn't be happier to say that I will be attending quit a few concerts within the next couple of months! If you know me even a little, you will know that I couldn't live without music, and that experiencing it live is my favorite thing...ever.

After next week, I will be spending three glorious, sun-filled days at the Gorge Amphitheater {hands down the best venue} in August for the Watershed Festival!! And after that, I will be seeing one of my all time favorite musicians, Mr. Keith Urban in September at the Washington State Fair! Did I ever tell you about that time I got to meet him...?!
 
Summer Lovin' Tour, 2010
I will definitely be getting my music fix this summer. And let me tell you, it is long, long overdue! It has been far too long since I was able to feed my music addiction, and this summer I decided to throw caution to the wind, and treat myself. 
 
Because damn it...I'm worth it!
