Big Girl Job: Day Two...

...Was no different than Day One, but I was holding on for a very special evening with my daddy!

While working at Griffin's over Christmas break, I heard on the radio one morning that James Taylor was coming to Birmingham! I've grown up loving his music and longing for the day I could take my dad. I knew immediately that morning I had to have two tickets, and knew I wanted them to be a special wedding day prize for my daddy. Keeping these tickets a secret for over four months was one of the hardest things I've ever done, but boy was it worth it!

(Sorry for the side-ways view. I couldn't get them to stay horizontal after loading them to blogger)

Daddy picked me up from work that afternoon and we had one of our original kind of father-daughter dates! Daddy always made special time for us while I was growing up, and just because I'm a big kid now doesn't mean those dates have to end. He's a special man in my life, and always will be. So, to Olive Garden for dinner it was, and then off to see our man!

The concert was in the smaller concert hall and it did not disappoint!

We managed to stay up way past both our bedtime's, but for a legend like James Taylor and a little quality time, I know it was well worth every minute!


Thanks for all the special things you did with and for me growing up, Daddy. I hope I can only begin to return the favor for you!
