Casting Crowns Concert & tail gate

28 friends and family headed out Saturday to drive 1 1/2 hrs to catch an amazing concert with Matt Redman & Casting Crowns!

This cute girl (and when I say "girl" I mean the one on the left), decided we should forgo a meal at a restaurant

because there are 28 of us

mostly energetic teenagers

who really just want to do...this

so we did this...we brought food, a mish-moosh, and hung out in the parking lot before the concert.

we took pictures of each other, with warnings...

we laughed a bunch

we spent time hanging out

we took pictures

especially cute pictures of all our great kids

some of the moms too

a group shot of the adults

and finally a photo just before the concert was to begin. I believe the tail gate was a success. A first for most, but a fun first. The concert...well, that was just another blessing from God.
