Journey.

Today I am grateful for the last two days.

My husband and my mother are completely amazing and have made my birthday weekend just awesome.

Last night The Marsh took me to see Loverboy, Pat Benetar, and Journey in concert.

I know. It's okay, you can be jealous.

It was fucking amazing.

I've been in love with Journey for as long as I can remember. and before I married The Marsh I was 95% sure that I was going to track down Steve Perry (the former front man of Journey) and force him to marry me. When I heard on the radio back in the spring time that Journey was coming around here the day after my birthday I knew I needed to get tickets. The Marsh agreed it would be the perfect birthday present and agreed to buy them for me.

The concert totally rocked. Loverboy and Pat Benetar were still so good live. and I have to give the new kid that fronts Journey now credit, he can definately sing. so even though it was an outdoor event and it was raining, The Marsh and I still had a great time and I'm so glad we went.

Today my momma and I spent the day together and she taught me how to gamble :0)

at 25 I still had never been to a casino before because until recently there wasn't one around here. oh and also my husband is completely and totally 100% against gambling. that sort of puts a damper on the whole going to a casino thing as well. but today my mom and I ventured out to one today and had alot of fun. because i'm inept my mother had to help me with the slot machines for awhile before i got the hang of it, but pretty soon i was on a roll. and holy crap, I can tell why there is such thing as gamblers annonymous. once i was in the zone on a good machine that i was winning pretty frequently on, i could have stayed there to play forever. I'm not quite sure The Marsh would have been okay with that though.

After we left the casino we headed south to the major liquor store around these parts and stocked up on some wine. I managed to snag a couple bottles of Root 1 that The Marsh wanted to try because it's his new favorite chilean wine company and my momma bought another bottle of wine for me that looks fantastic. I cannot wait to try it. tomorrow. because after these last two days, i am one tired girl. it must be my new old age.

I'm so grateful to be blessed with such a wonderful and caring family who took the time to make this birthday so incredible. I love you all.

Thanks for reading!
