Our New Baby...

Well, sort of! This is our new truck. Ford F150. Charley is a diehard Ford man. In fact, he owned two when I met him! He's been wanting to go back to Minnesota to get his other truck that's a year old, but after all the promotions & traveling expenses, it was a better deal to get a new one... believe it or not. So, here it is!It's a switch changing from the Dodge I was use to, but honestly, I can't tell much difference. A truck is a truck. (Must be a guy thing).

Finally Miley!

H. is a true Miley fan! It was like selling his soul, but Charley was finally able to get some tickets for everyone to see Miley at Stadium of Fire. Stadium has been a blackwood family tradition for several years, but never has it been so hard to get tickets!! Nor have they ever been so expensive! But as you normally do to please your 10 year old daughter, Charley came through with 5 tickets on the 5th row!
The overall concert was fantastic! There are so many activities going on that it's more than a concert! They start with parachuters landing right on the field. They honor the service men and invite all their families on the field. They have dancers. They have fireworks! The concert was basically just a segment sandwiched in the middle!! Never before have I seen so many young girls so crazy about a superstar! H. has been waiting for months to see Miley (ever since she was sick and had to miss the concert last year) and her dream finally came through!
