Justin Bieber concert

Hadley woke up so excited this morning for the Justin Bieber concert. I have to admit that I was a little excited too but also dreading a long day of work and then heading straight to Tulsa. Unfortunately, we had wanted to surprise the girls (Hadley and Peyton) with the tickets at Christmas and when we bought the tickets Justin Beiber had only planned on coming to Tulsa. Soon after we bought the tickets he announced he would be coming to OKC this summer. I'm not sure the girls could have waited that long anyway and it made for a fun road trip all together. 

While Matt and I were working my mom picked up Hadley at school a little bit early to come home and get ready so we could leave at 3:00 and get to Tulsa for dinner before the concert. Hadley was apparently already exhausted from her day at school and fell right to sleep in the car. 

One picture of the girls before leaving the house. They were bouncing off the walls.

We made it to Tulsa and stopped to eat at Joe Mama's, a pizza place. It was great pizza but by the time we got seated we were all starving! Apparently every little girl going to the concert was also wanting pizza beforehand. It was still work the wait and really fun to watch all these little girls running around and so excited to go to the concert. It also made Matt and I feel a little better when we realized we didn't have the youngest kid there.

Killing time while we were waiting to be seated and I took a few pictures. It was so cold outside and didn't even seem to phase the girls.

After dinner we jumped in the car and headed straight to the concert. Matt and Ryan were such troopers and had to deal with lots of girly screams! This picture is of Hadley and Daddy right before heading into the arena. 

Hadley and Peyton had no idea what they were about to experience. We were there fairly early and the seats weren't very full but it took no time for everyone to start filing in.

There were some teenage girls sitting right behind us and they kept giggling and talking about Justin Bieber. Hadley could NOT quit turning around and listening to their conversations.

Carly Ray Jensen and Cody Simpson opened for Justin and they were great as well. "Call Me Maybe" is one of Hadley's favorite songs so she loved dancing to it with Peyton!

Hadley had no idea how loud it was going to be and her face was priceless when the concert first started. It maybe would have been smart for me to bring some ear plugs or headphones with us!

My one complaint about the concert...Apparently, Justin Bieber likes to wait a LONG time between his opening acts and his performance. In fact, it was an hour and 15 minutes before he finally came out. If you can imagine how many little girls were there and how little patience they had, it was a little unnerving to wait for him to come out. Hadley ended up falling asleep in my lap and didn't even wake up when he finally got started. She slept for about the first 10 minutes of his performing and was in for a shock when she woke up. I took a picture of this huge screen that they put up to give you an idea of how much longer we had to wait. Unfortunately, they didn't even start it until the very end.

I will be the first to admit that Justin Bieber is an incredible performer. We had such a great time and I would definitely go see another concert with Hadley sometime. It was worth the wait and even worth getting home at 1:30 in the morning!
