Fourth of July weekend

Well I am all moved in, and I've spent a few nights at my new house. It's pretty cool! I like having roommates, and I like being more independent. I can tell it's going to be a good thing.

And now to the fun part of the post. The Stadium of Fire! Janice and I left my house around 3 or 3:30 even though we knew the show didn't start til 8. We were sure there was going to be traffic and trouble finding parking and all that. So we were a little early to the stadium, but we found our seats and we were so excited!!

Awesome seats, right?! We were row 23.

See how excited and dorky we were? :)

Okay, so we take our seats and then one of the Stadium workers comes over to introduce himself as Chris, and tells us if we need anything at all, let him know. And now for the rules (WHAT....). He tells us not to leave our seats in the middle of the show, and tells us to not stand up, but if we have to, watch our heads because the camera crane is directly above us. We were pretty bummed because we were hoping to run up to the stage once the show started!

Well, the show starts, SheDaisy comes on, and Glenn Beck, and the dancers, and all that fun stuff. I liked SheDaisy, they were cute. But then the Jonas Brothers started and immediately a bunch of girls ran to the stage. I looked at Janice and said "Let's go!!" So we did! We left all our stuff there, thinking that they'd just tell us to back to our seats anyway. But they didn't! They gave up trying to make all the 14 year old Jonas fans leave, so Janice ran and got our bags and came back and this is how close we ended up...

How crazy is that? We were so shocked that they let us stay there the entire time but it was such a fun show. I felt like I was 13 again. And the fireworks were SO cool!! I was literally looking straight up into the sky to watch them. It was insane. The ashes were falling on us, and we were covered by the end. I actually got burned by one of them that was still lit when it landed on my arm! Ouch!

Oh, on the way out, I saw this girl taking a picture of a sign that said "Jonas Brothers Dressing Room" on a door. Well.... I thought it would be really funny to take it, so I did. I am going to put it on my bedroom door... I'll take a picture and post it later. :)
