Merry Christmas!

So the Neil Diamond ticket was my Christmas present and it was perfect. The concert was so much fun, and I had a lot of fun being there with Michelle, we danced and swayed and sang along with Neil- he told us too. The arena was almost full, we think some people opted not to go because of the weather... but it was fine driving back. He sang lots of his classics and a few new ones, and in between talked to the crowd, actually a funny guy. He sang to the people behind the stage, yes they sold seats behind the stage. Mr. Diamond ( as he was referred to over the intercom) felt bad that people actually bought seats behind him, so he sang them a couple of songs! There was a Santa Claus, lots of middle aged ladies, and us--- it was amazing. I haven't stopped listening to his music since we got home. He even showed pictures and video of himself growing up as a kid in Brooklyn. Best concert ever.
Merry Christmas to all! Ben and I are off to Michigan today, well be back in time for the semester to start. Love to all!
