Happy Birthday America

First of all you have to know that I, Adam Bazzelle, have never been to a concert in my life.  Don't be too shocked, according to Shaila there are many, many things that I have never done that are just a part of life.  So shortly after we started dating it was announced that Brad Paisley was coming to Stadium of Fire.  I love his lyrics, he just has the right amount of sarcasm and humor that i can't help but love it.  So she told me without question we were going. 

So while planning a wedding and spending money on that and a ring and everything else we splurged a little and got some tickets for Stadium of Fire.  I have watched the fireworks many times outside the stadium but never from the inside.  We were excited.

The long wait was a little hard to bear but there was so much going on that it wasn't too bad.  We managed to make it without too many problems.   The night finally came and we were ready.  We decided to go early and get a good parking spot, so we went very early, an hour before they started seating.  We stood around and people watched, always a favorite.  

After watching people we got seated and got some stadium food for dinner, I had wanted a hot dog for a long time!  After eating we waited more.  Watching the stadium fill, wondering if we would have some space around us if people didn't show up.



Ten minutes before the start of the show people started piling in and the stadium was filled very quickly.  The program itself was awesome.  From the girls behind us making us deaf from David Archie boy, and the crazy country folk in front of us cheering for Brad it was a great experience.  We felt very proud to call ourselves Americans.  It was worth it.  I would have to say that we had a blast, even if it took us an hour and a half to get back home after.  










Thanks Freedom Festival for helping us celebrate our freedom.  I am so grateful for the wonderful country we live in.
