First let me just assure all you dog lovers out there, our puppy was in good hands.

Before the concert, we checked out downtown Colorado Springs. Benjamin had never seen a parking meter before.

You can see Pikes Peak in the background.

We had dinner here.

Apparently there are 2 of these where we live, but on the other side of town. So we'd never been. I was just hoping my picky kids would like their pizza.

Anyway, they liked the pizza. It was gone before I could take a picture!
We arrived at the theater a little early. So we had time to pick Humpty-Dumpty's nose.

And buy a t-shirt.

The boys were wondering if the concert would ever start.

I was just excited to be there!

Finally!

Let me just say this was the best concert I have ever been to. I loved every minute of it. Greg loved it. The boys loved it. They had to wait almost an hour for their favorite song - "Dive" by SCC. I wish I had a video of the 3 of them singing along.
By the end, I felt like I had been to church - with Michael W Smith and Steven Curtis Chapman! Wow!
Benjamin didn't quite make it until the end.
