L.V. for year three

muffin and i are coming up on our 3rd year of marriage next week. it's hard to believe it has been that long, it's also hard to believe it has been that short. a good marriage is one thing that we both work really hard at, and have felt the blessings ten-fold.

it's a tradition for our anniversary that russ and i go to a concert. basically every important event in our lives together happened because of music, so it only makes sense that we celebrate it the same way.

we trekked down to the city of sin to see kings of leon, the stills and we are scientists.

• the stills: love their music, but they're from montreal (canada) and still felt it necessary to get all political. boo, i can't avoid politics no matter how hard i try.
• we are scientists: their in-between-song banter was too advanced for most. i had to look up what "taxonomy" meant.
  
• kings of leon: played for 2 solid hours-- i teared up during "cold desert."

at the yardhouse-- our favorite

no cameras allowed. iphone took one crappy shot for us.

russ is funny:
"it's really cirque du soleil? i thought it was circus olé!" (complete with finger snapping)
"next time we're bringing the scooter, and you get the side car"
