Country Girl Through and Through

I LOVE country Music! I think I must have been 13 years old when my love for it really began. I have a good friend that I've know since I was 9 who really introduced me to it. I use to tease her for liking it, but now...I am such a fan too.
I love Wednesday nights at the tillamook county fair. They always have such a great country singer come. One year they had Terry Clark, another year they had SheDaisy, and this year they had Phil Vassar!!!!! It was so much fun. I've been counting down the days for a few months now...going to his website and making myself familiar with his music again. Honestly, I KNEW EVERY SONG! I did kind of feel silly that I could sing almost every song, word for word...but it made it more fun too:) Peyton loved it! Logan...he was a little bored, but this mommy was in her heaven. I love music, I love country, I love Phil Vassar's music, and I LOVE concerts! I had such a wonderful time. I left about 30 minutes early because my kiddos were READY for bed. But as soon as I got home, I opened my windows and my back door and I listened to the rest of the concert from my back porch! It really was a way fun night.



















Peyton was trying to sing a long with the songs...it was so cute!

I was about the same age as you were when I started listening to country music. And, like you, I used to hate country music. And of course now I love it!! I like to put the tv on the the eighties and nineties country station, and listen to all the songs I listened to when I first fell in love with country. It brings me back to when I was in my early teens. There's something about those years in your life, you're just coming of age, and everything is so exciting, so the music really takes me back to that place!! I was listening to it the other day, singing all the words to all the songs, and Lilly says "how come I don't recognize any of the songs." I said, "Well, it's because these are the songs I used to when I was your age." She was impressed! :)
P.S. I've never been to a concert, but we used to sit out on our patio when we lived in Tillamook and listen to the music in our backyard. That was so cool! :)
