Beyonce Concert

My friend Shani took me to the Robin Thicke/Beyonce concert
We had a really great time. We started out at Chickie & Pete's right across from the sports centers. Had a quick beer and appetizer (they are famous for their app's) and then we took the Chickie & Pete's "Taxi Crab" over to the concert. They have vallet parking at the restaurant and a shuttle (or Taxi Crab!!) over to the venues- saved us dealing with the concert parking traffic!!

I had a great time!!

Here's a picture of my friend Shani outside Chickie & Pete's

Robin Thicke (yes, Alan Thicke's son) opened up for Beyonce. He's like a brunette Justin Timberlake, kind of- only he can play the piano and also sings the majority of his songs in that falsetto (or whatever you call it)

"Lost without you" is probably his most popular song right now.

He had the ladies - SCREAMING!!!

Just before Beyonce came on we sat down for a second to rest!

I don't know if you can tell from this shot- but I'm not using zoom at all. We were really close. We were in like the 15th row of the second section on the main floor. It was great!!
Don't worry- I used zoom for the rest of the pic's!
She had so many different outfits! I love this bumble bee one!!
These 4 guys below were the only men on stage the whole night!

She has an entirely female band!

Another amazingly cool outfit!!


She worked the outfits too!!

That one above had an entirely jeweled butt!!


She did Dreamgirls stuff too- she looked so beautiful!

Did I mention that she sang her head off for over two hours!! It was an amazing concert! I really had a BLAST!!

Handmade baby & toddler blankets...

I also make and sell hand crocheted baby and toddler blankets.
http://www.specialnecessities.com/babies.html
I will be posting couch blankets and other crafty stuff on our website over the next month or so, feel free to check it out! I'll post notifications as the site completely develops!!
I make this blanket in multiple colors and sizes, it's a family favorite, it's soft and cuddly and it's the blanket I'm referring to when I say "Couch-Blanket", The one in the picture above is actually a toddler blanket but as I said I make all different colors and sizes... (green/brown versions below) I also take special orders, if you like the rainbow blanket but would rather it was just pink and purple, or if you see a blanket to crochet pattern- I am willing to try just about anything, I really enjoy it! If you like the infant blanket but would like a different color border, just let me know!! kari.anderson@specialnecessities.com
