We went out to eat before going to the concert which started at 6:45. The restaurant was Floyds and it was so yummy! My family and I have not always been keen on the seafood idea but Zac really likes it and I was willing to try something new. For an appetizer, we had alligator.... like, the big scary reptile, alligator. But, it was pretty good! =) I then tried crawfish for the first time and that also was really good. Overall, Floyds was great!
Next, we hit the road. The drive took us almost two hours because of construction and the normal rush hour. But, we did eventually make it, safely, to the concert. And was it worth it! The Plain White Tees opened for Daughtry, of whom Zac and I both like. When Daughtry came on though, I nearly freaked out I was so excited! I absolutely LOVE Daughtry and being able to see them live was just a dream come true! They opened with one of their newest songs, Baptized, and Zac and I sang along the entire time.
Chris Daughtry is an phenomenal singer and he was just as good live as he is recorded. I was very impressed. =)
I am so grateful to have a friend who loves Daughtry as much as I do. Having Zac there with me made the evening go so much better! Friends make everything more special and Zac is a great friend. I'm also so grateful to my parents for having followed the promptings they received. They could've gone with an "easier" gift (or no gift at all) but they chose to listen to the prompting they received. Because of their love and willingness to listen, I had a FANTASTIC night!!! I have the absolute best parents ever! Zac's parents are just as great! They also felt the same prompting and were willing to work with my parents. They gave Zac a prepaid credit card for his graduation gift which he used for dinner at Floyds. I am truly surrounded by some of the best people in the world. =)
Now, I did promise my mom pictures, so here they are!
