Scenes from the Weekend

"In these bodies we will live, in these bodies we will die, and where you invest your love, you invest your life"....

Mumford & Sons, rocked! I've been to hundreds of concerts and very rarely do the artists sound 100x better live. M&S's were the exception, wow. Old Crowe Medicine Show was also insanely impressive. All stringed instruments make my heart ache a bit, and both of them are  lyrical geniuses. If you get a chance to see either, worth every second.

Gentlemen of The Road was the theme of the concert & it also was one of the most charming "venues" I've been to. The small town of Troy, OH had never seen anything like it. People came from allover in droves. The music was played in their high school football stadium, which was great as alot of the crowd could be up in the stands. We were all shipped in and transported like a fine oiled machine. Buses picked us up on the outskirts of town and dropped us off and picked us up. The musicians wanted to pick a small town that could reap the "local" benefits and picked Troy based on efforts to give back. Very cool. 

Highlights of the weekend include:

My husband thinking he's part of the 'Gentlemen of The Road' and shaving his beard to leave this molester/hill jack looking face. He claimed to be "getting into the spirit". He then proceeded to look like a stoic (perve) in every pic the rest of the night. 


We connected with some local Dayton friends at the show (Megan is also a bit of a local celeb as she is an anchor person on Channel 2 local news station). Good times had by all. 





Toasted PB&J + Bananas? Best thing EVER! Plus, I had to rep the town I was raised in and "give back" myself {at least that's what I told myself to endure its calories}







Glad my honey surprised me with a weekend trip to my favorite place, live music festivals. The last one we attended {Lollapolooza} he got so hammered he was yelling & boo'ing at Asher Roth for sucking so bad. Sigh. It was due time for a redemption....and this definitely did it. 

We then drove to Columbus for my sister in law's low key (the only way we could con her into one) Bachelorette Party! We did dinner and drinks and spent over at The Hilton. It was good to reconnect with some high school ladies and meet some of Paige's fantastic college friends. Looking forward to the wedding next month! 






Labor Day was spent relaxing at my parents with my sweet nephew and fam. Although forewarned about cops on the road, there was alot of drinking and driving on Isaacs part.....


{Clearly intoxicated}




Happy 4 day week y'all!


Xoxo,
Andi
