. The picture below of Rachel and he turned out blurry--oh well--at least they got his autograph! 
On Thursday, immediately after seminary, I picked up Rachel and her friend Jamie Robbins and drove to the House of Blues in downtown Disney to wait in line for the Owl City concert . (For those of you who have not heard of Owl City, I will just say that his song, "Fireflies" is #1 on I-tunes. All of his lyrics are spotlessly clean and somewhat "punny". I quite enjoy their music.) Nothing but being first in line would satisfy these two girls. They wanted to be there at 1:00 a.m. but I held my ground. We set up camp at the front door at about 8:30 a.m. The second people to get in line didn't arrive until about 3:00 p.m. so it was quite a peaceful day. I left the two girls in line to meet my mother for lunch. While we were enjoying our curry chicken and mongolian beef, my cell phone rang. It was Rachel, who told me that Adam Young (who basically IS Owl City) had walked by and they had stopped him. He allowed them to have their picture taken with them and and autographed the tee-shirts they had especially made for the concert. They were so excited. We were indeed the first to get into the theater that night. We stood right in the middle on the front row and had a GREAT time. Definately worth the wait. We were told while we were standing in line that they were making a music video of tonight's performance. The camera man filmed Jamie and Rachel a lot, so we'll see if they are in the final edited copy. A fun day for a mom of teenagers.
