Naturally 7 and Michael Buble...OOO LA LA!

Ryan and I rarely get a real date night. All that waiting really paid off...thanks to a good friend! We are both big fans of the acapella group Naturally 7, who happens to be touring with Michael Buble right now! We've had the opportunity to meet Naturally 7 in the past and are always excited to get to see them in concert. Well, when Kurt Walker (he's the man) offered us tickets to their concert with Michael Buble in Charlottesville, we jumped at the chance! Georgi, our HERO, offered to watch Aubrey while she slept so we could go out for the night. We had to pick up our tickets by 7:30 in Charlottesville (and hour and a half away) and were in such a hurry because we were running late that I forgot my camera!!! I reminded myself multiple times throughout the day not to forget my camera, but my memory failed me yet again. Thanks to Jenny and Google for providing the pictures (sorry about the size issue). Anyway, we went up with the Eldredge's and the Himes' and had a great time! We got to will call to pick up our tickets and found out that Ryan and I were not sitting with the other four. It all worked out because we had the most AMAZING seats! We were center stage (on the end of the row) nine rows, yes NINE rows, back! It was, for lack of a better word, AMAZING! Here are some pictures, although they don't do the experience any justice.

Here we are after the concert hanging out with Naturally 7. Their bus actually caught on fire the week before our concert, and they literally lost everything on the bus (including a few passports)! We're just glad they were all ok. They are so talented and I recommend that everyone visit You Tube and look up some of their videos!

Here is the story behind the glasses. Michael Buble, and just about his entire band, were wearing sunglasses the entire concert. Apparantly a spider bit Michael near his eye the night before while he was sleeping on the bus.
At one point he took his glasses off, but wouldn't uncover his other eye to show off the bite. It didn't matter much, he still sounded incredible!
What a stud...glasses and all!
One quick experience from the show. There was a little four year old girl (Cassie) sitting in the row right in front of us. She and her mom are both HUGE Michael Buble fans, and Cassie knew the words to literally EVERY song! It was impressive. The entire time Cassie was standing on her seat, waving at him, trying to get his attention. It paid off because at some point during the show he jumped off the stage and ran back the eight rows to her, picked her up, and gave her a kiss. We were literally two feet from him! It was quite the experience all around, so thanks again to Kurt for making it happen!
