Summer is ON!! CARRIE UNDERWOOD rocks Springfield!

This is the BUSIEST summer we've had in years...but a great one.  Tuesday evening the whole family headed out to the JQH Arena for the Carrie Underwood Concert.    What we didn't expect was three great concerts.  Sons of Sylvia rocked the house followed by Craig Morgan.  Loved the "Red Neck Yacht Club"....It's gotta feel great when 15,000 people sing along to your music!

I knew his music and now I know he sings it.  Im a fan!.  He ROCKED...or Countried...or whatever it is you would say for the Country-rocker!  He worked the crowd!

Carrie's first song was Cowboy Casanova.  She came up thru the center of the stage on a chaise lounger....

Singing a beautiful duet off her latest CD called Play On with the lead singer of Sons of Silvia...

I can't remember the song she sang with this...but she said she wanted to see the audience and so she immediately thought of this retro truck!  Was pretty awesome as it flew around the room....

And here's the familia waiting patiently.....sort of....to get into the concert...

To me the most stirring part of Carrie's concert was her song "Temporary Home" ... Such an emotional song and you could hear and see the emotion on her face as she sang it.  It was very moving and sad...
She sings just as good Live as she does on a CD...so if you get the chance to see her....Worth every penny of it...especially when the kids will talk about it for years to come!

Now we're out the door to F- L - O - R - I - D - A!  Come on Sunshine!
