We went to Fall Out Boy, Gym Class Heroes, Plain White T's, and Cute Is What We Aim For at the amphitheater on Mud Island. It was a beautiful night, and we were on a small island in the middle of the Mississippi River. You could see the city lights behind the stage. It was tons of fun! Cute Is What We Aim For was better than I thought they would be. They sounded great and were a lot of fun to watch on stage. Plain White T's was my favorite. Gym Class Heroes was hilarious! We almost caught one of their lead singer's shoes when he threw it into the crowd! Fall Out Boy had great special effects with bursts of flames, lights, and sparks, but they didn't sound very good live. Their ugly, black-haired guitarist was there with his girlfriend - Ashlee Simpson, but we wished they would have turned his mic off. He spouted off about hating the government, sports, and pretty much anything that is organized. He also had a terrible mouth on him. They should have just stuck to the music - we left early after hearing just a few of their songs. Luckily the other bands were amazing :)

2 Dozen Roses

A few days ago the Fed Ex guy came in to work to make his daily delivery of contacts but he had something extra with him--2 dozen roses with my name on them! :) Everyone at work was asking me if it was my Anniversary or if Zach done something that he was trying to make up for. Zach sent them for no reason--just to make me smile and I did! I just wanted to brag that I have the best husband in the world. :)

Memphis Directions
Zach and I thought this picture was entertaining. The road system is not set up like a grid but more like a circle.

Dixon Gallery and Gardens
Today was my day off work and Zach surprised me by coming home from school at noon and taking me to the Dixon Gallery and Gardens. It's this really old southern home that has been turned into a museum. The collection of art includes a lot of Impressionism so that was awesome. The house is amazing. It is exactly how you would imagine a southern plantation. We walked around the gardens for about an hour and probably didn't even see half of it! We really want to go back in the summer when more of the flowers are in bloom. It was the perfect day to go though because it was 75 degrees with a nice breeze. We're glad that it is finally starting to cool down! Here's a few pictures from today.
