The Fray & U2

~May 24, 2011~

Last night  Don,James,Jake and I went to the U2 concert.  WOW!!  We were so close to Bono at times we could have touched him.  I think I enjoyed it more than anyone.  It was such a GREAT show.

I got tickets last year and wasn't able to use them because they cancelled it due to Bono's back injury/surgery.  We actually got a refund for them, and then when we were sure they were going to reschedule, we bought more.  It was a "beautiful day" and night.  There was no rain whatsoever, and we could even see the stars....ha ha!  Anyway, it was an AMAZING show, so glad that we went! . 

"The Fray"

another one of my favorite bands!

**I loved the claw and the effects were amazing**

Love the mountains behind them.....

I love this picture, there was just so much smoke that it looks foggy.

this was during the song "City of blinding lights" very cool.

Today my ears are still ringing and I am so tired because we didn't get home until after 1 a.m.!!!  BUT it was so worth it!

~~~ G.N.O (Girls Night Out) ~~~

Erin and Jordyn have been very good friends of ours since.the girls were 3 years old.  We try to have a girls night whenever we can, but it's been a while, because Erin was in Nursing school.  Well now that she has graduated we found time to do another.

We went to see the movie "Soul Surfer".  The movie about Bethany Hamilton who was attacked by a shark and lost her arm.

Can I just say this was one of the best movies that I have seen.  Very motivating and inspirational.  It did have a few bloody scenes and Ashlee was a little queezy  during those, but you couldn't help but feel good when you left the movie!

After the movie we went to "OUR" favorite restaurant, the Bonsai.  I say favorite because whenever we have a girl's night with the Updyke's we go there.  I guess you could say it's tradition!

We love watching them cook our dinner in front of us....It never gets old!

I'm just glad that they found a use for their chopsticks!!!
