I hate it that you look forward to something for so long, and then it's over before you know it. I hate it how all good things have to come to an end. I hate it how there always has to be a goodbye. But I love it that you get to enjoy every second of it before it's over.
Last night was so amazing. SO amazing. It makes me smile like an idiot just thinking about it. I needed it so much, I needed to lose myself and all of my worries and troubles for a night. I needed the music. I needed my girl. And every part of it lived up to everything I had dreamed about <3
We met Vivian at USANA around 6:30, get our tickets, get our food, and then find our seats. The Band Perry was first. They sand a couple songs, including Hip to my Heart, You Lie, and If I Die Young. Then LUKE BYRAN came on. Oh how I love him. He knows how to get down like a southerner. I mean, he knows how to strut his stuff, if you know what I'm saying. Like Viv said, "That will forever be a visual." After Luke was Tim McGraw. He came out into the audience and played, but we were on the other side of the venue from where he was. One of the disadvantages of being short. Can't see anything when everyone is standing up. But I could hear, which worked for me. He did tons of songs, I think around like 18. Each one was amazing. He did a duet with Luke and The Band Perry. AH-MAZ-ING.
I can't lie, my favorite part of the night wasn't the music, or the stars there. It was that girl I had my arm around the entire night. It was that girl who makes me laugh until I cry. That girl who I can completely lose myself in to actually find myself. That girl who believes in me. That girl who supports me. That girl who is always there for me. That girl with the most amazing voice, who I made sing to me the entire night. :) That girl who would do anything for me. That girl who when she says she loves me, she means it. That girl who wants the best for me. That girl who makes me better than I used to be. Vivian. She's that girl. And I can't tell you how dang much I love that girl. I mean, I LOVE that girl. And there's no better feeling in the world than when I'm hugging her and she's hugging me. She's special. Different. And so incredibly amazing.
If you remember, in my Stadium of Fire post, I told you about a bracelet I gave Vivian. It had the lyrics to I Hope you Dance on it. Remember this? Well... I just about started crying last night when I saw she was WEARING it. Oh my gosh. I couldn't believe it. I kept looking at it like... oh my word... it's actually, like, on her wrist, and she's like, wearing it. And not only was she wearing it last night, but this morning when I saw her, she was still WEARING it. STILL. Uhhhmm, I died. As soon as she left I went in the bathroom and cried. I was like, no way. She's wearing it!! My word <3 I still can't believe it. No way did that even happen.
The hardest part is always watching her leave. Because she's the kind of person that you never know when you're going to see her again. I love her so much it hurts. Like, bad. ;)
Thank heaven for summer nights, outdoor concerts, country music, and Vivian <3
