*While I’m livin’ it up in Chicago with Neely and Meghan, I’m doing flashback posts of my 2009 trip to Tennessee*
When we were getting ready to pick the dates for our trip, we decided just for fun we would check and see who was playing at the Grand Ole Opry. We thought if anyone decent was playing, we would go just to have something to do. We pulled up the schedule, and the last night of our trip, guess who was playing!

Oh yes! Carrie Underwood!
We had tickets bought within about five minutes! No way could we miss an opportunity to see our girl at the Opry!
We were so incredibly excited!
The show opened with Little Jimmy Dickens. Let me tell you, he is just the cutest little man!
Connie Smith
Jeannie Seely
Jim Ed Brown
Bill Anderson performed “Give It Away”, the song he wrote that was recorded by George Strait that won Song of the Year in 2007.
The Cherryholmes also performed, but none of my pictures turned out.
Clay Walker performed too! I was super excited because he was one of my favorites when I was younger. He sang “If I Could Make a Living” and “Fall”, which I loooooove!
Closing out the show was my girl Carrie!
She sang “All-American Girl”, “Just a Dream”, “Wasted”, and “Get Out of This Town”.
It was wonderful to get to see her perform at such a legendary place and to experience it with my Momma and Mom-mom. I’d seen Carrie in concert a few months before that, but this was the first for them.
It was definitely a great night and a great ending to our trip!
Nashville is such a cool place, and there are still several things I wanted to do that the sickness forced me to miss. I’m thinking maybe next summer. Anyone want to go? :)
Umm.. yes! I want to go! I’ve been to TN before but it was for my uncle’s wedding and I was with my parents so we didn’t get to do anything fun but wedding stuff.
Awesome! I love Carrie!!!
Hehe. I only know Carrie from this list! Your posts are making me want to go to Nashville! YEAH!
I cannot wait to see your pics from the weekend! Heart you!
That would be AWESOME!!!
Of course, we knew you would go see Carrie :)
What an awesome experience!
