Date Night with George and Reba!!!

Lee and I had a weekend getaway to New Orleans to see Lee Ann Womack, Reba McIntyre and George Strait!!!! Could it really get any better for country music than having George AND Reba in one night!!! We have had these tickets for a few months now and have been anticipating this trip for a while...and they did not disappoint. The concert started at 7:00 and we did not walk out of the arena until 11:50 (and Lea Ann only played 35 minutes)! We had a blast and both George and Reba have so many wonderful songs that you just couldn't predict what they might play next! We had great seats - front row of the third section - even though we were up high we didn't have to stand up and I could prop my feet up!!!
This girl can put on a show!
Reba and Lee Ann duet to "Does He Love You"
It's Melissa Peterman from the Singing Bee! (and the Reba show which I have never seen, but Addison and I love to watch the Singing Bee on Friday nights!)
Reba coming back in style for the Encore...
Did you really think she would sing Fancy in anything but a RED dress and high heels! The MAN of the night...GEORGE STRAIT (how could you not love that smile!)
George just stands there and sings, but....does he really have to do anything else?!!!
He closed out to "The Cowboy Rides Away"...how appropriate!
This is the view from our corner room at the Marriott on Canal Street
We had a GREAT time and really appreciate our family taking care of the girls - I am sure they weren't spoiled at all!!!
