Summer Concert

   Every summer Appalachian State University and Blue Ridge Electric put on a family oriented summer concert with fireworks. This year the group playing was The Band Perry. We are not huge country music fans but we were familiar with some of their songs, and we were offered tickets from a client, so we decided to go. Plus, we would get to visit Mike's mother along the way for an added bonus.
   This summer has been so rainy, we were not sure what kind of weather we might have. It ended up raining, but stopped long enough to enjoy the concert. It did get a little stormy at one point and everyone had to go under cover for 30 minutes. The Band Perry were so full of energy and really talented. We had a great time. This was the first real concert for Jeremy so he loved it.
   I took the pics with my phone so excuse the quality!

Waiting for the concert to begin.

Mike let us use his coat for cover in the rain so all he had was the hood!

Packed in like sardines waiting for the lightning to stop.

Awesome concert!

Georgia Cottage

I have spoken before of my love of cottages- especially coastal ones. I daydream about living in a quaint cottage one day. It is funny how my tastes and my need for so much space has changed. When we were looking for a home 11 years ago, we wanted a larger modern brick home. If I were buying a home today I would care less about the space - with the exception of closet space because we never seem to have enough of that- and more about charm.
These are pictures of a cottage in Georgia I found on bhg.com. It is by no means small, but I love the charming interior style.
