"I Had The Time Of My Life, With You"

As soon as I heard Taylor Swift was coming to Salt Lake I knew I wanted to go! Tickets went on sale all the way back in April and I knew I would have to fight for them!! And after some computer refreshing and split decision making, I bought two tickets, not even knowing who I was going to take with me!

Luckily, my WONDERFUL cousin Kandi agreed to go with me! I LOVE her!!

 After dinner at Cafe Rio we went to the ESA and got awesome, rock star parking! Which just happened to be right next to all of T-Swifts tour buses and semi-trucks!! We HAD to take pictures!!
We saw the band NeedToBreathe perform and they were actually pretty good. I think I might download a couple of their songs from iTunes!!
And then it was time for Taylor Swift!! We were both pretty excited!!!




The concert was seriously amazing!! One of the best I have ever been too!
The stage was awesome with all kind of special effects. There were ballet dancers! And ribbon artists!! And her dresses were fantastic!!








And she sang FOREVER which was awesome!! I kept thinking that it had to be close to ending but she kept going! She performed for almost two hours and the last song was just as amazing as the first!!
She sang almost every song off her Speak Now album and a few songs from some of her other CDs.

One of my favorites was Back To December. She was off doing a costume change, and meanwhile up on the stage it looked like it was snowing. Then this bridge lowered and a bunch of people came to stand on it and started playing the violin! It sounded so beautiful!! Toward the end of the song she added in Apologize and Your Not Sorry!!! Three songs in one!!! Awesome!!



Oh! I have to tell you about this guy {pretty sure he caught me taking his picture here}


He is one cool dad! He was there with his daughter and they were holding hands and dancing around together! He knew all the words to the songs and had no problem singing along! So cute!!!

My other favorite part of the night was Love Story!! It was the very last song that she sang and I was worried that she was going to skip it!!



THANKS for going with me Kandi!! I had SO much fun hanging out with you!!!
