CMA Fest was really fun this week. The booth ended up looking great! There were plenty of star sightings too. :) Pictured below are Kelly Rich and Justin McIntosh from Big Machine Records and Valory Music.

Taylor spent all day today greeting fans and signing autographs. My nieces got to visit with her and were interviewed by CMT. I hope it ends up getting aired!

Considering that this IS "Fan Fair"... I had to pause for a fan moment myself. This is Carrie Underwood (or "Underwear" as Ella called her) signing this morning.

But his favorite gift is his new BIG BOY BIKE! Sheryl and I gasped watching him ride...somehow he went from being 2 to this huge guy!
Happy Birthday, Sam!!
