"Hi, my name is Katie, and I am a George Strait Junkie."
I'm one happy fan!
I love this man's music! I've grown up on George Strait music, and became obsessed with him around my senior year of high school. Kaitlin Fairchild and I sang Heartland about everyday in Ag when the FFA yearly video was being made. I also discovered Pure Country. Although it is not my all time favorite movies, I do love it. I have tried to share it with a few of my friends, but not all of them admire it the way I do.
This week, Friday could not come fast enough. I was ready to hit the highway and head to Des Moines for the concert. I apologize if I happened to annoy anyone by posting a new video everyday this week. I was just really excited...
When I jumped in the car with my family, I annoyed my brother by being extra excited and squirmy. We had to sit in traffic for too long. George has a lot of fans! Mom and I jumped out when we were close to the arena and left the parking of the car to Dad, Peyton and Allison. By the time that I purchased my shirt and we found our seats, we only had to sit about 5 minutes before Martina McBride kicked off the show. She is a favorite of mine, and I'm glad I got to see her perform as well.
After Martina left the stage, my excitement began to build, even if I thought I was pretty excited to begin with. Then, the lights dimmed and I knew it was time for my dream to come true. I would finally be seeing George Strait in concert. He is so good! I just love how I am always in the mood for a George Strait song. My momma screamed like a high school girl. She thinks George is a hottie! :)
George had 3 pages worth of songs to sing. He has 58 #1's and 85 in the top 10. The only thing that I was sad about was that he didn't sing Heartland or I Cross My Heart. I guess this means that someday soon, I will have to wade into the sea of plaid, Wranglers, and cowboy boots and hats to see George again. :)
