Good Music

This last weekend my parents and sister came in town. It was their first time to see our new place- my sister Mollie made the comment that every time they visit Dallas it feels like a different town, since between my other sister Katie and me, we have lived in 5 different areas of DFW. This time around we took them to our favorite restraunts off Beltline, and shopped the Galleria and Northpark Mall.

The main reason for their visit was because Mollie wanted to see Mumford and Sons, who were playing at House of Blues last Thursday. When she first called me to tell me they were going to be in Dallas I had never heard of them but I knew her taste in music could be trusted... and now, they are one of my favorite bands! Their music is just so good! Even better live! Here is us before the big show:


Mollie is soooo beautiful!!! So the concert started with this really interesting looking fellow named King Charles, but his music was also seriously so good! Then Mumford and Sons came out and the show became unforgettable... Mollie was SO giddy the whole time. I have to confess, that by the time they came out it was after 11, and about halfway through I might have dozed off for a minute or two... We finally got home at about 2 in the morning, I don't think I've stayed out that late since college.

Friday we did some shopping and eating. My dad and Dillon got dragged into the excitement but found the Apple Store and were fairly content while we went to Nordstroms, Anthropologie and the Loft. For dinner we went to Patrizio's where Mollie convinced us to try mussels... not awful but not good. Here is Penny resting on a soft cushion.



Saturday we got up early and drove to Norman, OK where we toured OU. I will support Mollie wherever she decides to go, but would LOVE for her to continue the Raider tradition. She was happy with the tour but still in unsure where she wants to go ultimately. We got back by late afternoon and ended the night at the Galleria, so Mollie could get some cute boots, and my mom could eat at her favorite, La Madeline.

All in all- good times! Enjoy the music below~

Love me some Mumford & Sons - far and away my favorite. I would have loved seeing them. Glad you had a great time with your sis!
