Six Degrees of Separation.....Cawntry Style

See these two chicks?

That's Lisa and I.

I'm married to this guy. Groovy glasses and all.

And my husband's BFF and Lisa's husband is this guy. Hat and all.

Lisa's husband, Wes, has an incredible gift of being able to talk to anyone.anywhere.anytime.anyhow. And he just so happened to strike up a conversation while playing golf the other day with this guy.



That's Trace Adkins's brother. As in Trace Adkins country music superstar. And Chatty Wes was able to score tickets to his concert along with all-access/backstage passes from the brother. And Chatty Wes remembered the little people and invited the husband in the glasses and me to join 'em. Suhweet.

So now I get to meet this guy tonight. That's Trace. *squeal*


And Mr. Adkins just happens to be hanging out with this guy in concert tonight. Uh...yah...that's Toby Keith. All-American, patriotic, step-on-people's-toes Toby Keith. And I get to meet him, too. *double squeal*


And now I'm just plain giddy.

I'm still thinking I need me some boots. Because if you are going to schmooze in pictures with Toby and Trace....you should be wearing boots.

It just seems like the American thing to do.


Wes and Lisa, Thank y'all so much for the opportunity to go with y'all! We are so excited and cannot wait. We are going to have a blast, for sure!!!!!! Here's to making more memories!! --Amber

Although I don't listen to country music and I have no clue how cool those guys are (though I have met Trace Atkins before and boy was he drunk) it's still way cool. Gotta have boots for sure. I'm thinking red or pink. And I'm thinking my hubby should take up golf so we can meet cool famous people, too.

Gretchen said...

So excited for you. And for me, because thru the computer, it's like I'm meeting them, too. Except not. But almost.

Very cool! Perfect reason to buy some new boots! ;)

Mich said...

Tell Trace that the girl that inspired the song "Every light in the house is on..." is your sister. Or at least that is what Kev tells me all the time when we come home and the lights were left on... :)

Have fun! Love ya!

Man oh man! I am soooooooooo jealous!!! Those guys are awesome! I hope you found you some boots! I can't wait to hear all about it.

How did I miss this post? Perhaps the question my husband just asked me of whether I was smoking marijuana cigarettes isn't too entirely far fetched? ;)

Does Chatty Wes need any more really good friends? I know some in Oregon that are WAY cool. They even own a hat.

I heart Wes.
