Garth Brooks in concert!!



Jordan and I went to Las Vegas this weekend to see Garth Brooks in concert!!


When we went to check into our hotel room at Bally's they had upgraded us to a king suite at no charge.  We thanked them and didn't realize how much of a free upgrade it was until we walked in.  The room was older but clean, nice and HUGE.  Bigger than our first two apartments, huge.  It was really fun. Not a bad way to start our trip.  


We ate a quick dinner and then walked around.  We spent most of our time at the Paris hotel because it was close and we didn't have a lot of time before the concert.  That and it was a beautiful hotel. 


Off to see Garth Brooks!!

We weren't allowed to bring in cameras or phones so we took a quick picture before we walked over to the Wynn Encore theater.

The show was amazing. 

Garth Brooks is Jordan's favorite singer and it was on his bucket list to see him in concert.  The tickets were A LOT of money but after the show we both felt like it was worth every penny.   

It was more of a show than a concert.  It was literally Garth Brooks, his guitar and a stool.  He talked about the music that inspired him growing up.  The music his parents and brothers and sisters listened to.  He sang all different songs from those different generations and then talked about his music and how some of his greatest hits were written.  It was so interesting, funny and entertaining.  Trisha Yearwood even came on stage and sang a few songs.

We LOVED it!!!     


After the concert we walked through a few hotels on our way back and then tried to watch the water show at the Bellagio but had barely missed it.  It was so hot that we decided to go to back to the hotel to go to bed.  We laughed saying that we were probably the only people our age going to bed at a decent time in Vegas.

In the morning we had to get up early to drive back home.  It was a very quick trip but so much fun.
