Kelly Clarkson... My Life Would Suck without You!

So... I love music. I think most of you know this! I like all different genres too and I love to frequent concerts... when my checkbook allows of course! :)


On June 11th, Rach Smith and I went to the Kelly Clarkson concert in Orem. I've LOVED Kelly since her American Idol days! I think she has a great voice (when she is not screaming!) and puts on a great show, so I was really excited to see her live!

June has been crazy weather wise, so I was really paranoid that the show would be cancelled due to rain, or a freak snow storm. (which was very possible!) But I had been planning on this concert for months and no amount of weather was going to stop me!


Rach and I got a quick bite to eat and then made the trip down to Orem. It had been raining all day so the ground was wet and nasty, but we still endured! We made our way up to the front of the stage and with the exception of a girl who has about 6'4, (seriously she was huge!) we had pretty good seats!


After the first acts, which were a couple of really good bands (Imagine Dragons!!!!) is when it started to rain, but then Kelly came on and the rain stopped! We had an AMAZING time! Seriously! So much fun! We jumped, danced and sang the night away! We sang to Kelly and Celine in the car... and even have the videos to prove it! And to top off the evening we went to Krispy Kreme for some tasty doughnuts! Here are some pics and videos from the night! It was awesome!


Rach and I before the rain.


She does not hook up!


Can you tell we were having fun? :)


Kelly Clarkson is MY American Idol!





Kelly!!!


Rach giving a thumbs up... surprise... surprise!


This is what Rachel looks like when she sings...


mmm.... doughnuts...

I have crazy eyes!

A Vegas Wedding and Some Temples Down South!


Kelly and Michael


On June 6th, my step-bro Michael King married Kelly Hulwi at the Bear's Best Golf Club in Las Vegas, Nevada! She's a great girl and we're excited to welcome her to the family! It was a good time! We (me, Melvin, mom, Michelle, plus aunts, uncles, Nan and Pop) made a quick little weekend trip down to the Veg for the ceremony and party after. There was food, dancing, and fun! Little Michelle was having a blast on the dance floor! And I even made an appearance myself! (I know shocking!)

Congrats Kelly and Mike! We wish you all the best! Hope to see you soon!

While there me and the moms and the Mels stopped by the Vegas temple and took some awesome pics! Then on the way home I stopped by the St. George temple and took some more awesome pics! It was actually the first time I've ever been there... that I can remember! :)

So here are a TON of pics from our adventures!



All of us!
