first concert

Last Saturday started out as all good springtime Saturdays should...with some garage sales! Got some good deals. 20 pieces of clothing for Tyler for $10, all brand name stuff good for school and play for now and in the next size. Also got a cute (brand new) candle decorating kit, so of course that's how Tyler spent a good hour or so that morning (and the next as well).

After Jason's non-nap we were off to my cousin Andrew's son's first birthday party. Colton is such a cutie!


From there my mom and I drove to Great Adventure so we could enjoy an outdoor concert. Six Flags does lots of free shows. When I was little the shows used to be packed and you'd have to get there early just to get in. We arrived maybe 5 minutes before the show and it was only full about 1/4 of the way. I know Kris Allen and Allison Iraheta probably aren't immensely popular, but I think the crowd level was due more to the state of the current economy. Great Adventure has been pretty empty to begin with. Pretty sad.

Anyway, it was a nice concert, and nicer still that it was a gorgeous nice. It was outdoors and totally appropriate for the boys. They seemed to really like it. Jason bopped along, happily eating broken up bits of popcorn. Tyler reported to like Alison's music a little bit better. Not a bad concert for free (thanks to our season passes).









Afterwards we were able to do a few rides before the ride home. As you can see, both boys like the teacups. Me, not so much. LOL.
