Rockin' On.....

This weekend Doug & I actually got to get away without the kids! It's rare we get a chance to go overnight somewhere without them. I believe it's good for you though! :} We headed out to Wendover to take in a bit of old 80's rock at the Loverboy concert. You might know songs from them, like: Working for the Weekend, Lovin' Every Minute Of It, Turn Me Loose, The Kid Is Hot Tonight, When It's Over..and more. As you know, we love our concerts! You've got to appreciate all kinds of music & watching people living out their dreams, while keeping people entertained!

It was great to have a couple's weekend with our good friends, Tina & Dennis

We're ready to rock on!
Let the show begin!

We were fortunate enough to get 2nd row (good job Tina! :}), so we got to be right up there close to the band, even getting a few high fives along the way from band members :}

Powerful vocalist, Mike Reno, doing his thing

Lead guitarist, Paul Dean

Keyboardist, Doug Johnson

Bassist, Scott Smith
Dummer, Matt Frenette, signing autographs after the show
30 Years and they're still rockin'!!
Tina was certainly "Lovin' Every Minute Of It"

Then after the show, we weren't quite done with the fun. We checked out the band, Phat Daddy, at our casino. They also jammed to some great 80's tunes...so I definately got my singin' & dancin' in for the weekend! :}

Their friends, Rob & Cindy (our U of U tailgating buddies), were also at the show. We got to meet up for breakfast the next morning. You would have thought it was a day of a big Utes game or something. You can't tell they're fans now can you?! :}

Cindy deserves a whole blog to herself as she has a very inspirational story, especially for all those struggling to lose weight. She is now down over 150 pounds!! That's a whole person...it's amazing! And she has a good sense of humor about it all. I loved hearing her talk about what a difference it was to actuallly fit in the concert seat, or just there at the table. Or how good it felt to walk around without needing the wheelchair. We know it's a constant battle; but, she's proof it can be done! Way to go Cindy!!
