Daniel and I got to do something super fun this weekend.
We got to attend Winter Jam 2013.
A friend from church had box seats from his company that were not being used, and he generously let us use the tickets! Not only did we get great seats, we also got to park in the VIP lot and go in a special door with no waiting - we have NEVER felt so cool!

(Wow! I think that is the most videos I've ever posted in one day!)
Did you get to do anything fun and exciting this weekend?
How fun! I have been hearing adverts for Winter Jam for several weeks and we would love to attend when it comes to Champaign. Love, love love wbgl radio station. That Matthew West song is something else, isn't it? I would love to know the story behind it. Have a great day!
