Here's the city where I went...recognize it??
Here's the hotel I splurged on...and it's been FABULOUS!
The bed...so very comfy...the pillows...perfect...free wifi...and a TV with cable! I haven't had cable TV in a long time...maybe, if I am lucky, I can catch a Little House rerun while I get ready in the morning!
So, a big reason I came was to see this phenomenal group...
But there's more...I got to meet someone else. Someone I admire...someone who inspires me...someone who I've really wanted to meet since I first "met" her in early 2007.
Here's another hint of sorts...during the concert, Todd (that's the guy with the shiny head) had his daughters come up on stage. They have 4 daughters...three on earth and one in Heaven. These two were brave enough to come up front...the youngest was a bit shy so she didn't come up front.
Todd (shiny head guy) and one of the most phenomenal singers I've ever heard, is the husband of the fabulous woman I met. The sweet girls...2 of their daughters...who also have a quite a gift of song, by the way...
I got to meet my dear bloggy friend, Angie! (I don't have trouble remembering her name!) A couple of years ago, I found her blog...and I was hooked. She is a gifted writer...her writing is incredibly heartfelt and I admire that she is not afraid to share the ups and downs of being a wife, a momma, and a daughter of the KING! I have blogged about her and her family before and posted a link or two...but if you've not read her blog, "Bring the Rain," read it! She's also writing a book...that I will certainly blog more about when it is published next year!
WOW! What a night! Now you know what I have been up to for the past few weeks! Thanks for playing along with me! Thanks Angie and Selah for blessing my heart tonight...and so many more times the past few years! God is using you to do miraculous things in the lives of people all across the globe!

Oohhh LaLa! Sounds like a perfect getaway! Love a hotel stay...and CABLE tv is a luxury to us these days too. :) Selah is such a treat and meeting a fellow blogger...very FUN! Glad you enjoyed. :)
wish i knew you were in town, we could have met! we're so much alike (teachers, future single adoptive moms, waiting on mr. right:)) glad you had fun!
I love meeting blog friends! Sounds like so much fun!
Hmm. Up to four commenters now. Must mean more people read your blog than you think - hee hee.
Glad you had fun and got to meet Angie. She's pretty special (at least as much as I can tell from her blog). Praying for ya and the adoption!
Wow!!!!! How awesome!!!! :)
Sounds like a perfect weekend! I have yet to meet any blogging friends, though I think my time is coming soon.
Angie- I love to read Bring the Rain. So glad you had fun and got to meet Angie. :) Sounds like a wonderful get-a-way!
It's about time--I don't like waiting:) (ok, that's kind of a joke considering we have both been waiting for our girls for over 2.5 year!)
Sounds like a wonderful time--glad you had a wonderful evening of music and got to meet Angie.
I've read her blog before myself--I enjoyed it. And, I was moved by the story of the little girl they lost. Is that what her book is going to be about?
