So...I had a birthday this weekend...:)
Can't say just how many...:)My hubby surprised me with tickets to hear Chicago and America (two of the greatest bands of the 70's 80's and beyond...:)
We heard them live in Atlanta's famous Chastain Park.
and this was pretty much our view...we had rockin seats about 20 yards from the stage! (I stole these pics off the website...they will not allow photography inside the amphitheater...)
This place is a trip!...People actually take coolers and picnic baskets and wine glasses and table cloths and tv trays and candles and flowers for the table...really they do...it looks like this... or you can reserve corporate tables and invite a group of friends...yeah, really...
Believe me..it is a total experience. We actually went to dinner beforehand but next time we'll know just what to do...:)
You're The Inspiration
(P. Cetera/D. Foster)You know our love was meant to be
The kind of love that lasts forever
And I need you here with me
From tonight until the end of time
You should know, everywhere I go
You're always on my mind, in my heart
In my soul
CHORUS:
You're the meaning in my life
You're the inspiration
You bring feeling to my life
You're the inspiration
Wanna have you near me
I wanna have you hear me sayin'
No one needs you more that I need you
And i know, yes I know that it's plain to see
We're so in love when we're together
And i know that I need you here with me
From tonight until the end of time
You should know, everywhere I go
Always on my mind, in my heart in my soul
CHORUS

HAPPY - HAPPY SWEETEST BIRTHDAY EVER!!
Next time just give us all a call out here in blog land and we'll get one of those tables and have a great time together- wouldn't that be awesome?!
Now this song won't leave my brain - oh well, it could be worse!
I wish you many joys and blessings this coming year - may your cup over-flow with Gods goodness!!
What a wonderful hubby you have, and what a wonderful surprise! That sounds like it was a great time. I love Chicago's music, too. That song is special to me, as well. I sang it at our "senior class night" right before I graduated high school...many moons ago. That brings back some sweet memories.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Happy Birthday...a few days late!
Whew that takes me back! HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHERYL! Sounds like you had a wonderful time. I hope this year is even sweeter than the last. : )
I'm a little late, of course, but a belated happy birthday to you! What a nice way to celebrate it. I loved, loved America.
Well! If they won't let you take photos, you simply have no choice but to raid the website for photos. LOL
Happy Birthday!!! Chicago is the greatest! All those talented guys sound so good together, I saw them last summer.
Im so glad you had a wonderful time celebrating your 39th!
How lovely, Cheryl! And Happy belated Birthday! What a great thing for your man to do for you. . . I'm envious. Loved the 'idea' of the whole experience.
Happy Birthday ... what a nice treat! The evening sounded wonderful ... I'll have to dig up dh's records of these groups and give them a spin in your honor. Birthday bash hugs!!!
Oh, dear, I missed your birthday! Happy BESTEST birthday in the world, dear sister-friend. I was totally about Chicago/America way back when. I've been to Chastain a couple times---it was quite hot but I loved being out there under the stars.
hugs,
V.
PS--You're quite a young looking Gigi!:-)
Oh, I love Chicago!!! That's so cool! Happy Birthday dear sister!!!
And that song is my favorite that Chicago does. Great song!
Happy Happy Birthday!!
Sounds like you had a wonderful time! Chicago is coming to my area and we are trying to get tickets :)
I have missed being in blogland...there are some not so nice people out there :(
I do hope to stop by from time to time - as I really do miss it!
Anyway - Happy Happy Birthday!
hi Kimber!! so nice to "see" you again..come by more often!
Wow, Happy Birthday Cheryl (if you were an Aussie, I'd call you Chezza)! It was my birthday on Sunday too... a public holiday down here, so I celebrated excessively.
In the summer I like to picnic in the natural ampitheater and listen to my local symphony orchestra play free concerts. But its winter here now, so I celebrated inside (mostly) this year.
I hope you can look forward to another year of blessings (and challenges!)
Love Jocelyn <><
Congratulations! It sounds like you had an awesome time.
happy, happy birthday!!!
and, ahhh ... the memories :)
