So, Lillian got Shawn Mendes tickets from Santa and the day finally arrived where she was going to see the man, the legend, Shawn. Even with the crazy countdown and having to listen to Lillian act as the wikipedia of all things Shawn, the day was magical. Gah! To see your kid that happy and so engrossed and really living out one of the best days of her life is something I can’t even put into words. I was happy to be present and to witness it. Her dream came true and she soaked in every second. Come share in our adventure!
Must have pre-show photo opportunity
Waiting patiently for them to let us in! Back story on the rose she’s holding. These are for VIPs only and Lillian asked a mom and daughter about them and they told her it was for the VIPs. Well, we walk away and the mom comes up and GIVES Lillian her rose. Lillian burst into tears and hugged her and told her thank you so many times. She did not let that thing go, as you can tell she’s extremely happy.
The stadium!
Lillian soaking in the pre-show fun
Alessia Cara. Wow! She was amazing. So stoked she was the opening act to his show. She really helped to get the audience warmed up.
Without further ado, Shawn. He put on a fantastic show. Seriously, super impressed. His energy was unmatched and his voice was killer. I will spare you the videos of the ridiculous screaming of the audience and just share the pictures. :) Lillian didn’t sit for the whole show. Lost her voice as well. She had the time of her life!
The concert ended and of course we had to go down to the main level and collect confetti for her to keep. I have to say this experience will remain a highlight memory for all of us
