Tegan and Sara – Portland – 4.8.10

9 Apr

Part of the reason i wanted to live in or near a large city is because in Birmingham we had to drive at least 2 hours to Atlanta or 3.5 to Nashville to see a good show.  And that always bothered me.  I always said i wanted to be in a city that the bands and artists i like would come to…and Portland is.

Tonight (or thursday depending on your time zone) we went to see Tegan and Sara. If you have ever seen a list of my favourite bands Tegan and Sara are probably the first one i will list. I love them! And it helps that they are Canadian…and also from my hometown of Calgary. So seeing them gives me warm fuzzies in my heart cause they are from my city…something good and fun from the hometown. always nice. oh, and we had 4th row seats off to the left. Cant complain!

but anyways… i took some pictures and here they are…

I love concerts!! and i love Tegan and Sara!

Who is your favourite band or artist?

Mallory and Eric

8 Apr

Hey guys. I would love if you helped a friend of mine out. She is awesome and her name is Mallory and i love her…and she is engaged to a great guy named Eric.

They made this video to be a part of Project Wedding Birmingham, AL. If they win they will get a complete wedding…how amazing is that?!?! anyone who has planned or paid for a wedding knows that it is insanely time consuming and expensive and this would be an amazing gift for them.

The way they win is for you to watch, rate and comment on their YouTube video. it is about 2 minutes and super cute, they are really creative. and it will help you get to know them a little bit more….

So, if you could watch the video, then go to their YouTube page and comment and rate the video…it would be AMAZING!!

How cute are they?!
