A whole new world

No, we didn't go to Disneyland, but we did go to Stagecoach in Indio. It was a huge country concert with 60,000 people there. We saw amazing artists like Billy Currington, Sugarland and Keith Urban. We also found out that you don't have to wear much of anything to go to an outdoor concert. (I never knew a bandana could be used as a top).



We had a great time hanging out with our friends. Ron kept finding us better seats, so by the time Keith Urban performed, we could easily see him on stage, without having to stand on our chairs.



It was a fun trip, and reminded me of how we are in the world but not of the world. I'm happy with my semi-sheltered life, and I'm really glad we left the kids home with friends.

Thank goodness for a cavity

Because if Blake hadn't had a cavity and gotten the day off to go to the dentist, my dining room floor might still look like this:

Which, granted, is defnitely better than this:

But I LOVE having it done! Now I can't wait to rip up the carpet in the front room. That room doesn't have so many tricky angles, so I won't have to wait for Blake to get his next cavity in about 4 years.
