BABY TONIGHT

Two weeks ago I attended the NEIL DIAMOND CONCERT! Can I hear a So good, So good, So good, (you have to attend a concert to know that he adds that to one of his songs!) Anyway, the Neil Diamond fetish started years ago when our moms use to rock out to Neil Baby. We used to all pretend that we hated him, and tease that he was so old he was dying of cancer. Really though we were becoming huge Neil fans ourselves. About three years ago (when I was living in SLC) I saw a Neil commercial come on for his concert. So the clark granddaughters bought my mom and her sisters tickets. They had a ball and even made it on the news.


(Sorry Linda I couldn't resist putting this on)

Now three years later Neil baby returned to Zion, and we were all able to attend.It was fabulous. Che' made us t shirts with nicknames on the back, and we marched in there as Neil's number one fan-ily.





The shirt! Half way into the concert Che' got all upset because she wished she would have put an arrow on mine that said "This is Neil's baby" the extra funny part is that it is Neil's baby.


The whole fam after the concert. We definitly look like we had been dancing and singing up a storm for two hours.



The concert was so fun. Who knew that old Neil baby could still move those hips like a twenty year old. He even took his jacket off and slung it across the stage at one point. It was so much fun and I can't wait to go again. Because "Neil's got the way to move me Sherry."
