On Friday, David and I went to The Edge Stole Christmas, a concert with 7 different alternative bands. We knew all of the bands' main songs that are played on the radio, and we were pleasantly surprised by a few of their shows.
We met up with Don, one of Uncle Neil's friends, for a few beer refill breaks. It made for a really fun date night to get out and do something different.
The hours building up to this concert was filled with heartbreaking, saddening thoughts though. It was a horrible day for the people of Newton, Connecticut. A mass school shooting happened that morning. Now that I am a mom, this kind of news hits me even harder. From the second I found out about it, I turned on the news, and my eyes were in a constant state of tears. I broke down multiple times throughout the day. Not only did my heart go out to these families, but I couldn't stop thinking about the thought of something ever happening to Nico. Such a sickening thought. It definitely reminded me how precious life is, and I made sure I hugged him a little tighter that day.
