Joe's Birthday

Yesterday was Joe's 28th birthday, we tried to make the best of it considering that he is in a brace with a fractured neck. I had bought Joe tickets to see his favorite singer Jack Johnson about four months ago. Then when he got hurt I wasn't sure that we were going to be able to go, but he wanted to see him so bad that we got a babysitter for Brodie and went anyways. Originally we had lawn seats, so we brought a little fold up lawn chair for Joe to sit in, unfortunate when we got there they said that the concert was over sold and we could not bring a chair because there was only standing room. I showed them Joe's big brace and told them it was his birthday, the guards were so nice they took our tickets and gave us much better seats in the pavilion so that Joe could sit down. The concert was amazing, Jack Johnson is even better live than his CD. We also spoiled Joe with some other gifts, he got some new Pumas, a jacket and a Nook (and electrical book from Barnes and Noble that you download books right to.) so no more trips to the book store.

This is where we were suppose to be

These are the seats that the guards gave us

this was our first non-Brodie date since he was born

He still managed a smile be the end of the night so I think it was a success
