Somebody Say Howdy

Each week we 3 Hutsons watch The Marty Stewart Show together on Rural TV.  Not only is it a fun show to watch, but they always have great music and special guests.  It's just all-around great family broadcasting.  Anyway, somehow Kyle found out that Marty Stewart and His Fabulous Superlatives would be in Windsor, IL, which is about an hour from here.  We couldn't miss it.  They were playing at their town's Harvest Festival.  We debated on telling Evangeline ahead of time, or keeping it as a surprise.  We ended up telling her.  She was as excited as we were!  The fair rides were just icing on the cake.  

They put on a great concert.  They even played the theme song for The Marty Stewart Show and he said his catch phrase, "Somebody say howdy to me right now!"  Evangeline screamed howdy.  Her mouth hung wide open for about the first 5 minutes of the concert.  After the show we got to meet the whole gang: Marty Stewart, Cousin Kenny, The Apostle Paul and Handsome Harry.  Evangeline said, "it was pretty cool that Marty Stewart told me I could say 'howdy' to him whenever I want and that they said happy birthday to me!"
