Carrie Underwood and her husband, Mike Fisher, recently traded their quiet country life for an action-packed evening at the ice rink.
On March 28, the American Idol judge and the retired NHL star enjoyed a rare public date night at Bridgestone Arena, cheering on Fisher's former team, the Nashville Predators, as they faced off against the Montreal Canadiens.
Showing ultimate support for her husband's hockey legacy, the 43-year-old country superstar rocked a bright yellow Predators jersey emblazoned with the number 12—Fisher's old playing number. In a sweet photo shared on the team's official Instagram page, 45-year-old Fisher posed beside his wife while holding up a custom miniature bobblehead that featured the couple twinning in matching team gear.
The lively sports outing was a fun change of pace for the pair, who married in 2010. Recently, Underwood has been vocal about how much she values the peaceful, grounded lifestyle they've built on their sprawling Tennessee farm, providing a stark contrast to the glitz of her professional commitments in Los Angeles.
During a recent appearance on SiriusXM's Front Row, the "Blown Away" singer opened up about the importance of keeping her family life normal.
"I went from living on a farm to being on stage in front of a ton of people and traveling and we're in a different city every day," she explained. "I learned very quickly that this is not real life."
Underwood stressed that while she is incredibly grateful for the wonderful experiences her music career has brought, she deliberately cultivated a home environment that feels entirely separate from the entertainment industry for the sake of their two sons, 11-year-old Isaiah and 7-year-old Jacob.
"It's important for me that home is just way different than this," she noted. "My kids see me. We get up, we take them to school, we're making breakfast, packing lunches."
That hands-on approach extends all the way to their evening routine. The Grammy-winning artist proudly shared that she personally makes dinner for her family at least five nights a week. "I don't know if it's good or not," she joked, "but we ain't starving."
