So I probably have THE BEST husband ever! What husband will sit through a 3 hour concert with thousands of screaming teenage girls, just because he knows his wife loves David Archuleta?? That's right, my husband did that! He got me tickets to the David Archuleta concert for my birthday and it was last night! I cannot tell you how much fun we had! I have never been to a concert that was louder than this one. The ENTIRE time these girls were screaming for their lives, hoping that David would notice them!! We had 3 girls sitting right next to us that were SO in love with him! In one of the videos you can hear one of the girls yell, "I freakin love you!" It was so fun to have them right next to us! They made it so much more entertaining! David was so good! He is just such a little cutie! No wonder all these little girls love him! He was such a great performer! It was seriously one of the funnest nights! Thanks so much baby!


Look at that face! Does it get cuter than that?? Well besides my 2 girls...hehe!

So after the concert we took advantage and stayed the night up in Salt Lake, thanks Britt and Stef, at the Little America! Such a pretty hotel! Look at our view! We were on the 16th floor!! So while Christian was checking us in, I was sitting in the car looking at my pictures and videos from the concert. I looked up and saw this huge man walk out of the lobby. I looked a little closer and thought, "is that Shaq?"



And yes it was!!!! He started walking right by the car and he smiled so I waved and was a little in shock! It was Shaq! So I jumped out of the car and asked if I could take a picture with him and he generously let me run up and hug up next to the biggest man I've ever seen! He made small talk and was very nice! It was the coolest thing that's ever happened to me! I was SO sad though because Christian just missed him! I would have asked him to wait, but who makes Shaq wait!! So I called Christian and he was so sad!! But the Hotel receptionist said that the whole suns team was staying there for their game today! an you believe that? Shaquille O'neal!!! Amazing! And then I got to send the whole night, baby free, with my hot husband! It was the BEST NIGHT EVER!!!

Oh my gosh-- you met Shaq! You really look like a little ant next to him. I'm so glad you were brave enough to ask for a picture! I always chicken out and hate myself for it later. Too funny. :)

David & Shaq all in one night, how fun! I'm slightly jealous! I'm must be a teenage girl at heart. Nate's Aunt and Uncle rent there basement apartment to David's backup singer Kendra. So their daughter (one of my best friends from high school as well) spent a whole weekend with David in Boise! Dinner, Concert, Fireside and back to their house for dessert... I's just a tad bit jealous! I was wondering though, I heard a friend from high school, Benton Paul opened for David, is that true? Oh and I love that picture with Shaq, he's huge!

Oh my gosh SHAQ IS HUGE!!!! I can't believe you saw him and Marci, I was at the concert, sitting in the next section over, three rows up!!!! haha!!! That's HILARIOUS! I think I can actually see me in the background of your pic?!!! Funny! Don't you just love him?! I've been listening to the cd for days! So glad we got together for lunch! :)

Ashley said...

That's so crazy that you saw Shaq!! He looks so huge...and makes you look so small!! :) Looks like a fun weekend!

Thats so cool you got to see Shaq and get a pic with him! Im so jealous! A couple of years ago me and Steve were here in Portland for the holidays or something and we got passes to the Nike Employee store and the whole Phoenix Suns team was there and I got Steve Nash autograph and then the stupid lady that worked at Nike took it from me I was so pissed! A picture is much cooler and so is the fact that it's Shaq!
