Kelly Clarkson Concert

After I picked Ryan up from school, I grabbed a couple of rain coats and an extra sweater for her and then we were off to Provo.

We got to Grandma's work to pick up the tickets and Grandma asked her who her favorite singer was, Ryan of course said Kelly Clarkson and then Grandma asked if she wanted to go see her and Ryan was jumping up and down saying yes so she gave her the tickets and then we backtracked to Ogden to the Brent Brown Ballpark on the USU campus.

There was a bunch of pre-show stuff and Ryan was starting to get very irritated that Kelly wasn't on stage yet. We were the sixth row of chairs back from the stage, so when her van finally showed up and people rushed the stage Grandpa threw Ryan on his shoulders and rushed the stage with the rest of them.

He was such a good sport because he kept Ryan on his shoulders jumping along to the music the whole time up until the last 3 songs when Ryan was ready to sit down, she was cold from all the rain so I wrapped her up in a blanket,sat her on my lap and bounced her up and down with the music so she could still feel like she was jumping along with everyone else.

While she was on grandpa's shoulders she threw her arms up and held up the peace sign with both hands, Kelly Clarkson smiled at her and gave the peace sign right back to her. She was copying everyone else so I have a bunch of pics of her doing the rock on sign and clapping her hands above her head, all in all I think she had a great time and is something she will remember her whole life. Anyway here are all the pics, Enjoy!! (Sorry there are a lot of them.)















And the pretty Rainbow that I just had to take a picture of,

A surprise for Ryan

Ryan has loved Kelly Clarkson since the breakaway album, and every time she hears a girl singing on the radio she asks "Is this Kelly Clarkson?" if it is Kelly Clarkson we have to listen to it while Ryan sings along.

Yesterday I got a phone call from Suzan asking me if there was anyway I could get off work at 6:00 tomorrow, I had to remind her that I have this week off, and then she got really excited. She got Ryan VIP tickets to the Kelly Clarkson concert tonight at UVU. It is outside and general admission but their is a small roped off area just off the stage and that is where Ryan will be, she doesn't know yet and she is going to be so excited when she finds out. Last night big Ryan dropped off the new cd so that she would be able to listen to all of the songs before the concert. she was repeating some songs, listening to them over and over and reading the cd leaf so she would know the words. I am going to have her listen to it one more time when she gets home from school before we go to provo.

I am so excited she gets to go to her first concert while she is young, I know most people are embarrassed by who their first concert was, hopefully she wont be, I think she is really going to have fun. I will take tons of pics and post them tomorrow.
