Sigh...

You know those events on the calendar, the events that you count down to, the kind that get you through the CRAZY that is all around you, just knowing that each day you survive, means one day closer.  One less day to countdown.

We just had one of those events.
Five concerts in five days.

Four Supertones shows.

 A no kids allowed road trip.
(Dave & Jess instagrammed driving south on the 5.  We immediately copied as we drove north. So awesomely dorky.)

(stolen from Dave's feed)
One Mumford & Sons show.

One epic weekend.  Spent with dear friends.  The generous hospitality of strangers.  Dinner with Katy.  Ministry.  The celebration of a year of hard work in the studio.  Successfully brainwashing Jason and Jessica to become Mumford fans.  Mwahahahahahaha.

I am deeply, truly, so very sad that it is over.
It was just what our hearts needed.

No words could properly describe how much fun it was.

How magical the Hollywood Bowl is.  Or how perfect the Mumford show was.
(stolen from Jason's feed)
Or how amazing our seats were.
Good food.  Hipsters.  Strange opening bands.
Twinkle lights.
What more could anyone need?

Or how much we are thankful for friends who get, love, dream, pray, encourage, and laugh with us.

So thankful.
Now if I could just find a way to make the 400 miles between our two houses disappear...

    JUST saw this post now. :)
    sighing too. because i feel like 400 miles should be more like 4 miles.
    okay?

    also. concerts with hipsters and weird opening bands are kind of the best. right?
    so are epic concert shots.
    freaking dave. confession: he took my lecrae concert shot and i did not give him any cred.

    but you win with the string lights. and illuminated cellphones.

    come visit soon.

    I'm cry laughing at this. I love Marcus. And all his sons. I am sorry I ever doubted. I have both albums on repeat, in denial Twentyville is over. Your friendship is water to our souls and we're so thankful God brought you into our lives. We love you both. Also, the Dirty Projectors are playing Rio de Janeiro two weeks from today. You in or are you in?

    Surely are in agreement with that which you reported. Your proof ended up being obviously the easiest to recognise. I express to you, I ordinarily get irked while other people discuss matters that they admittedly do not know about. You managed to hit the nail directly on the top and identified out each and every not having complication. , people can take a signal. Will likely be back to get more. Thanks
