beatles and fast cars

Oh my this weekend was long and fun but now I need a weekend to recover!

I slept in this morning and went through the first round of my weekend photos. The Fab Four.

I messed with some of the video too but only got around to posting this for my brother…

My niece Kaydence (aka Kiki)

Hopefully I can share more videos from the show before I lose interest and move on to something else. The group was quite good and it was nice to spend an evening of entertainment with my family. I would definitely see this show again and again.

 

On Saturday we went to a pre-races pool party at my friend/co-worker Tami's house. They had some extra tickets to the Indy races at Texas Motor Speedway and invited us along. It was my first time at the Speedway and my first time ever at races like these. We really enjoyed the experience and I've decided following the Indy races is something I could totally get in to. I have photos and video from the event but I haven't had a chance to go through them yet. Maybe tomorrow after I submit my Circus Mexicus video entry but for now here's a cute photo of us at the races.

 

Today we spent the day trying to recoup from the fun in the sun but also spent some time working on our Circus Mexicus videos. Michael is also entering the contest for a chance to win the VIP passes. I think both of us have a pretty good shot at winning. In fact his will likely beat mine. Deadline for entry is Tuesday at noon Rocky Point time but I know we'll be done in time. I think mine's about as good as it's gonna get.

And so I am pooped from a great weekend and have a short 4 day week to look forward to because come Friday I am outta here. We'll be in Mexico for four days with our favorite band and friends! Circus Mexicus!!

We were amazed from the moment they stepped on stage just how much they looked and sounded like The Beatles. Especially Paul!

and Ringo!

 
 
The show spanned the band's entire career as seen in the photos below.

Michael's Beerthday Weekend

My husband celebrated his 39th (gasp!) birthday on Saturday but we started early with the Zane Lamprey's Drinking Made Easy Comedy Tour at HOB Friday night.

One of Zane's buses:

Michael getting Steve McKenna'd

and sporting his new "Drinking Made Easy" T-shirt this evil looking wife bought him

A rather large Pleepleus on stage (take a drink!)

No photos of Zane or Steve on stage :(

BUT BUT BUT we got our photos taken with everyone after the show :)

Photos we'll probably never see :(

We hit Cheesecake Factory after the show for some birthday cheesecake & got a room ;)

Saturday we spent the RAINFREE! day at Wildflower Arts & Music Festival in Richardson. Bands, Michael Jackson Tribute, good beer and good meat--seriously good meat on a stick and the Beers of the World Tent had a great variety of beers for us to enjoy all day.

Shiny Happy People

Our friends Dax and Shell (no photos boo hoo) joined us later in the evening too. Good times, good times.

Happy Birthday Pumpkin!
