My 30th Birthday and not being pregnant seemed like the perfect time to make it happen! Chris bought us the tickets months ago and it was finally here! Once again, I was sad to leave the kiddos and nervous about the travel but my excitement to see Garth pushed me through! ;) Glenda and my mom were so sweet to once again, watch Avery & Warner. It's so comforting knowing they are in great hands!
We had such a fun time together all day on Friday shopping, gambling, sitting by the pool, eating annnnnnnnnd then GARTH! It was better than I could have ever imagined and yet so different. I've never sat so close in any concert and we were in the 4th row; we might as well have been on stage with him. And if we were, it would have made a total of 3 people because it was just Garth and his guitar. Talk about talent. I pictured him sitting back and playing all his hits but again, it was so different. He told a story, went through the decades and shared what influenced his music all while pacing around the stage, making MANY jokes, and breaking into song unexpectedly. So incredible. I hate to say it but you really did have to be there to appreciate even an ounce of this entertainment. And the coolest part? You really don't even have to be a fan of country. He sang so many classics from all music genres that showed yet another layer to his talent. A must-see. I would go back in a second.
But then came the food poisoning. Grrrrr......
I woke up Saturday morning with a horrible stomach ache that only got worse over the next 4 days. Yup, severe food poisoning. I sure didn't see that coming and found myself wishing for a hangover instead. I'm pretty sure it was from a the pizza place at The Wynn but it was bad. So it was definitely a bummer to my trip and the days that followed but at least it was after Garth!
Soooo despite getting sick, Chris and I had a wonderful time and were so happy to have finally seen Garth's show! I highly recommend it!
