Of Concerts and Free Time and Blessings All Around

Well, you know what I feel like I should say here, based on the ginormous gap between this post and my last one. But I refuse to say it. Since you all know what I'm thinking now and how sorry I am. So there. Moving on.

Liberty has been busy, but awesome! I have incredible friends, who might kill me if I put photos of them up here...but I might do it anyway =) But since I have some fun photos of people who won't care, that's what you get today. A few weeks ago I went to a Casting Crowns concert at Liberty with my parents, and they let me bring my SLR in...which is unusual for a concert (for example, my pictures from the Owl City concert I took my sister to last fall are on my phone. Yeah). So I was incredibly happy, especially because concert lighting can be super, super fun! Hopefully you'll have as much fun seeing the results as I had at the time =)


Lindsay McCaul opened, and then Royal Tailor (who is AWESOME!!!! I love their music now!)



Sadly, I have no pictures of the lead singer's moonwalking...it was great =)


Matthew West was the last to perform before Casting Crowns...


The picture on the right is one of my favorites from the evening...the lighting made me incredibly happy =)


And then we finally got to Casting Crowns! I hadn't been listening to their music much recently, but Mark Hall  really seemed passionate about his music and his mission, and I decided they were better than I thought =) 





This more acoustic set was perfect for the photographers in the audience...the whole band was in one spot and the lighting was perfect...




This was the view from the jumbotron...


An acoustic version of "Praise You in This Storm"...beautiful =)


At the end, all the performers came back up on stage to sing 'Until the Whole World Hears' and finish the show...it was a great night =)


Oh yes, and as for the rest of the title of this blog post...I am currently on spring break! Which is how I manage to have some free time...after taking senior photos for my sister and her friend, attending chapel, and taking a wonderful nap =) And God has been good...hence the blessings =) Nothing specific or special, but just general keeping-me-going during school insanity...for which I am extremely thankful! 

Anyway, I apologize for any incoherence...it's late =)
