Tim McGraw was every bit the proud father as he celebrated his daughter Audrey’s big milestone this month: She’s officially completed her first international tour.
Audrey McGraw has been touring as part of Brandi Carlile‘s The Lost Time Tour, a 12-date run that included stops in the UK, Scandinavia, France, Germany and more.
For her country star dad, that meant watching his 23-year-old youngest daughter blossom as a singer and performer in her own right.
He celebrated the end of her tour in a sentimental social media post, also sharing a throwback photo of Audrey as a baby. In that shot, McGraw holds her hands as she toddles through a park, her big sisters Gracie and Maggie just steps ahead.
“One day you’re watching your little girl take her first steps, and the next, she’s stepping onto a stage chasing her dreams,” McGraw wrote.
“So proud of our baby girl [Audrey] for wrapping up her first international tour with the amazing [Brandi Carlile]!” McGraw added in his post, which also includes footage of Audrey all grown up and performing onstage.
He and his wife, fellow country star Faith Hill, traveled to attend some of their daughters’ shows, and McGraw says she “absolutely killed it.”
