So tonight there was a special concert held

on the lawn of the Capitol. It was free and open to the public. It was the National Memorial Day Concert, also broadcasted nationwide on PBS. It featured the National Symphony Orchestra along with special guests: Lionel Richie, Yolanda Adams, the Allstate guy and, my personal fav, Brad Paisley, just to name a few. It was co-hosted by Joe Montegna and Gary Sinise. We got there about two hours early to get a decent spot for our blankets. It was a pretty hoppin' place! The program was phenomenal, and very touching too; they honored all of our armed forces as well as their families and they had a special tribute t

o widows of fallen soldiers as well. I am proud to be an American!! I am so blessed to have such amazing opportunities to attend great things like this. I have learned so much by living here in our nations capital! I love it so much!!! Everyday holds something new and exciting!!
Yay!! I am glad that you had so much fun! Whoever had the idea to go to this is brilliant, just brilliant. Probably good looking and kind as well.
ReplyDeleteWow!! Your blog is so awesome! It's been a while since I've seen it! You have some cool stuff. I actually saw this program at 2:30 in the morning while I was feeding Brooklyn on Sunday night. I was wondering if it was live or if they had just recorded it. It looked awesome- that's so cool you got to be there!
