Avett Brothers Concert

Yesterday we went to Myrtle Beach, SC to see The Avett Brothers. They are kind of a cross between bluegrass and rock. All I know is when you see them you have a good time. They put on an exciting show. This was the second time that I have seem them. We will definitely go again.

More 4th vacation pictures

4th of July Vacation

For the 4th of July we decided to go to Ohio for vacation. The last time I was there was when Lucas was born, so I was excited to see how much he has grown. The week was busy but pretty low key. We went to the zoo, a Cincinnati Reds game, COSI, and we (I) go to babysit Lucas for a day. Maggie did really well with Lucas and with Jinx, my sisters cat the is now living with my parents. Maggie didn't really know what to think of Lucas but by the end of the week they were both laying on the floor and she would give him kisses.

Garden Update

So far our garden is doing okay. We've already picked cucumbers, green beans, zucchini and squash. Hopefully soon we'll have tomatoes and peppers. Oh and one surprise, we are going to have pumpkins. So maybe this year we won't have to go buy pumpkins to carve.

X-rays

Some how I managed to injure my leg and I have no idea how I did it. I had pain on the outside of my left leg. It hurt so bad that is was hard to walk. I went to the doctor to see what I might have done and the only thing they could think of was that I just had a bad sprain. But the cool thing was I got to have my leg x-rayed. I've never been x-rayed for anything except for my teeth. So here are the two x-rays they took.

Beach

Today we decided to take Maggie to the beach to see how she would do. We already knew that she liked the water, but wanted to see if she liked to swim. Well, she likes to attack the water and hates it when one of us decides to go in the water and she can not come. While we were there we did see a dolphin. It was swimming along the coast. The video was taken with my digital camera and you can just barely see the dorsel fin of the dolphin and you can see Maggie swimming.

Brad Paisley and Dierks Bentley Concert

Yesterday we went to Raleigh to go to my one country concert for the year. This time is was Brad Paisley and Dierks Bentley. I was mostly wanted to Dierks Bentley. He was pretty good. We stayed long enough to see a couple of Brad Paisley songs and then we left. We wanted to get back and avoid the extremely large and drunk crowd that was there.
