Double Concerts

As Joel's belated birthday gift we went to see Lauren Daigle at the T-Mobile center downtown.  It was a great concert.  We went with friends out to one of the nicest restaurants I've ever been to.  It was a lot of fun, and we ate so many amazing foods including bone marrow with lobster and A5 wagyu beef.  

Lauren has an amazing voice, but it's her personality that shines through.  I liked her almost more than her music. It was a really enjoyable concert.

The next day my friend invited me to see Taylor Swift in the theater.  It was for her birthday.  I'm not a huge Swiftie, but I do enjoy some of her music.  While I was there I realized there were certain albums that I knew most of the songs and then there were certain albums I must have missed completely.  It was fun, but I will say it was almost more entertaining watching the fans crying at the concert. 

Things are Buzzing

We had the oddest occurrence happen in our yard this week.  We had a swarm of bees take up residence in the tree above our driveway.  It is really rare for this to occur in the Fall.  It normally happens in the Spring when there is more than one queen, so a group leaves with the second queen to find a new hive.  These bees decided to form an open-aired hive on our tree.  It would not have ended well for them when Winter came.  Fortunately, I remembered this happening in our neighborhood a couple of years ago.  They had a bee keeper come pick up the swarm.  I called the same man and he came straight out to get them.  He's going to try to keep them alive through the Winter. 

A Fishie Finish

I listen better when my hands are busy, so I try to have a quilt I can hand bind during General Conference.  This one went quickly.  I love the fishes!
