Week 7: Fun! {David Garrett}

I'm a little behind in my blog posts so forgive me as I catch up.  Week 7 was a great week!  I really don't have anything witty or philosophical or creative to write for this blog post.  I'm a week behind on my posting due to being busy and being tired.  I've been relaxing in the evening after putting PJ to bed so I haven't delved into anything new creatively.  I read a few books, including Jane Eyre.

What I DID do week 7 was have the pleasure to see David Garrett, the extremely talented {and handsome!} violinist, perform live at the Chicago Theater.  Not only did my friends and I have first row tickets but we also had meet and greet passes so, yes, after the concert we met David.  He was very... well, adorable.  Quiet nature with an OMG beautiful smile.  *sigh*

The show was fantastic; his playing is phenomenal.  I truly had a great night with some good friends.  Our evening started with dinner at Al Primo Canto, a Brazilian steakhouse.

Where we enjoyed a wonderful family style dinner of appetizers, pasta, salad and tons of tasty meat!  The prices did not exceed our budget and the food {and service} was incredible.  I highly recommend it and can't wait to go back.

I ordered a Brazilian cocktail, a Caipirinha.  Very tasty!

My friends and I...

Because I was looking forward to meeting David I couldn't boast my normal "mom style" of baggy jeans and the same boring black top so I popped a flower in my hair and hoped for the best!

It really was a night to remember!  I had such a wonderful time!  A few more pictures of this amazing performer.  I have to give a shout out to my new little Panasonic Lumix zs5.  It captured some wonderful memories!

The passion in his playing is heart wrenching {as so are those full soft lips!}  *double sigh*
