friday night in waverly

for friday night date night, we packed up a picnic and headed to waverly, alabama to see the civil wars in concert! we have recently fallen in love with this group and we were so excited to see them live. it was such an intimate concert in a really fun venue - standard deluxe, inc. - a screen printing place.
we got there early to plant down our chairs and dine on our picnic - homemade bbq chicken pizza, one of our faves. i explored the area and checkout out the screen printing shop.
as the sun set, people poured in and found a spot on the grass to listen to the amazing harmonies of joy williams and john paul white. there were over 1,000 people sitting in silence taking it all in. the only sound the crowd ever made {besides applause} came after the largest and closest shooting star anyone had ever seen raced across the black sky. it was like a firework and it was amazing.
civil wars, i love you and i can't wait to see you again. definitely one of the most fun friday nights i have ever had in alabama.
