Nickelback Concert in Des Moines

This is what Joel and I did on Wednesday night this week!!! I'm calling it Joel's early Birthday present. However, I can safely say, we both had a really good time. It was a good show and we had good seats!!! Thanks Grandpa Jeff for watching Gabe and Girlz and getting them to bed on time. Watch out kids momma might be getting you real drums and guitars..........or we might be playing a lot more Rock band........because everyone wants to be a Rock Star ; )
