Jason Mraz Concert- Fond of Hats -October 16th

Wow!  What a day.  I am pretty sure that it started from the beginning.  I got an email notifying me of the concert for that night.  There were no two seats next to eachother, but the tickets were an amazing price.  I thought about it all day long.  In fact I invited Chris and Bailey to go, but Chris was broke, and Bailey just couldn't do something so spontaneous.  I debated on it pretty much because Chris my boss, had gone out of town, and he had told me to do something fun, while Gma, and Gpa were there with the kids.  This was the first time that I considered going to a concert by myself.  Crazy I know!!! In fact I asked several of my friends if they would ever do that, and everyone said no way!!!  Although their answers were NO, I couldn't help but think of how much fun it would be just to see him in concert.  I got really close to just booking the ticket.  But after thinking about it long and hard, I decided not to do it!!!  I texted Bailey to let her know that I was just going to bag the concert idea, and just do something with everyone that night instead.  Well as soon as I sent her the text, she called me to say that her and Vickie had found two seats together and that she would like to take me their for my birthday.  So within a matter of minutes it was official, we were really going to a Jason Mraz concert.  I picked her up after dinner with the family, and all my good byes, and I found her at her house Still cleaning up from dinner.  She was soooo not ready to go.  I knew the concert wasn't very far from my house, but I didn't know the way for sure.  So I did my best to be patient, and help her pick out an outfit.  Well luckily we got there just around the time that Lisa started singing.  It was so exciting to be there.  The theater was really cool.  It was the Tower Theater in Upper Darby.  The concert was amazing!!!!  We had so much fun!  He is an incredible performer.  He was a lot of fun to watch.  And he involved the audience too... It was so sweet!!!!  He said something between songs that I will never forget.  It was, "Don't let your mind stop you from having fun."  It totally went with our entire day of should I stay or should I go.  I am just so glad that we went. I loved when he and Lisa sang Lucky together.  It was so great!!!  I love when I know the words to the songs. Bailey was so happy.  She was so thankful that I talked her into being spontaneous.  It's important to live a little.  It's fun to do something not all the way planned!!! :)  I took like 100 pictures.  It was great!! We both bought new cd's of his, and she bought a shirt, and I got  a cute bag to add to my collection...  It was a night we will NEVER forget!!!!
