One perk of my job is that we can get free tickets to sporting events and concerts. I guess no one wanted to see American Idol Live since they looking for people to host the suite. I will admit this year wasn't as exciting as past seasons, but I did watch the show and know the AI gang - Big Mike, Casey, Crystal, Lee. At first I thought we could bring the baby. I was thinking that we'd be in the suite so we wouldn't be around a ton of people and if he cried we could sit in the lounge area with him. Plus after being away from him all day, I am always so excited and in a rush to get home and see him. In the end, we decided to leave him at home. Good thing we didn't take him because poor Zander would be deaf! He'll have to wait a bit longer for his first concert experience.
It was our 2nd date night alone since having the baby and we had a lot of fun. We ate dinner at La Canasta, a restaurant that we've been talking about going to for a long time but it's too far from our house so we never do. It was alright, but not fabulous. It did give Devin bad heartburn and a trip to the restroom during the concert. When we were leaving the restaurant, Devin had something stuck in his pant leg and magically pulled out a pair of my underwear! I guess he grabbed his jeans out of the hamper. Kinda gross but we thought it was hilarious!
We really enjoyed the concert and got to hang out with my coworker Patrina and her husband Oscar in the suite. It was hard for Devin to contain his excitement about the show as he was hooting and hollering after every performance. After Didi performed, it was dead silent and he shouted out "I love you Didi". We all laughed at him and then laughed even harder when she responded "I love you too". The concert started with Didi and counted down from the top 10 contestants down to Lee. There were also some medleys thrown in the mix and as we all know, it's not American Idol without some cheesy medleys.
All in all, it was nice to have a night out together. We need to start doing date nights more often!
Yep - that's Lee Dewyze
Siobhan and all her weirdness. Patrina thought she was going to bring out a lamb and sacrifice it after her crazy performance.
Big Mike who should not try and sing JT songs.
He is one of a kind!
Aaron Kelly who sounded surprisingly good.
Crystal who was sporting her new smile.
Medley time - Devin's favorite : )
