Merry Swiftmas!

The season of Miracles is upon us and boy, do I have a miraculous story for you!

A Swiftmas Miracle

Twas the night before The Era's Tour presale tickets and all through the house

not a Kari was resting not even her spouse.

Her ticket plan was organized, and her nerves were a flurry!

But she was a verified fan, so nothing to worry!

Her status was determined for Denver and Vegas--

Our dream of seeing Taylor could happen in two places!

Her dear Brian, a Swifty because duh,

was willing to buy the tickets because love!

The hour finally arrived the group chat was set--

We would have The Era's Tour tickets without sweat.

Little did we know The Devil is real. 

His name is Ticketmaster and his evil millions could feel.

The queue was stalled, and the tickets were lost. 

Not one time, but three! Words were cuss.

Eight hours this went on with not a ticket to secure,

Kari's heart was shattered, and she shed some tears.

Alas, one more try Brian did take

and what do you know, the line didn't break!

He swooped in for tickets, the highest in the stands.

We didn't care--we are true fans!

The prices were reasonable and we didn't get swindled,

so we took a shot at the Vegas queue because we felt quite nimble.

We quickly picked two seats that showed up by sheer luck

I can hardly believe it! We got them! What The --?!

There we sat, we could hardly believe our eyes...

We are seeing TWO Taylor Swift concerts--the ultimate prize!

All we wanted was to see Taylor Swift

And we know these miracles are truly a gift.

In March and July, we will surely be a sight,

but for now Merry Swiftmas Tay All And Tay All A Swift Night!

Holiday poems don't lie. We are very, very grateful and excited to be on the winning end of The Ticketmaster Debacle of 2022. This not-so-little miracle reminds me that there is a lot to be grateful for this Holiday season. Brian and I both have jobs we love, we know we're exactly where we should be in life right now, and we are surrounded by miracles like YOU! 

Thank you for being in our story. Thank you for showing us joy this year. And as life dishes out the unpredictable, may we all find hope in surprising places--like being 50+ years old at a Taylor Swift concert (or two!!!)
