The Night I'd been waiting for...

For 15 years!!!

My sister took me to the NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK Concert for my birthday this year!!  Wow.  I have been listening to NKOTB since I was about 10 years old.  I have never gotten to see them in concert, and this did my heart good!  

Words can not describe the experience really...it was the best birthday gift I could've gotten.  An evening with people that I love, fulfilling a dream of mine.  It was AWESOME!

Here are my favorite pictures from the night...

Here are the four of us getting ready to head out to dinner before the concert...


Although I totally have a teenie-bop crush on Joey McIntyre, Lincoln really is the Love of My Life...hee hee


Alright, so I was a little excited and couldn't wait for the rest of my "crew" to take a potty break...I couldn't miss a SECOND of the show!  (I'm a huge dork, I know...)


To make the night even better the Jabawockeez were one of the opening acts!  I'm a HUGE ABDC (America's Best Dance Crew) fan, so I admit, I was a screaming nut during this show as well.  They even did a Michael Jackson tribute (one of the best artists that has ever lived, but that's a topic for another post)...I can't think of anything else that could've POSSIBLY made this show any better!!!  (Okay, except a hug from Joey...!)


The four us trying to contain ourselves before NKOTB came on...it was the nicest weather ever...just an overall perfect night...I really can't say it enough!




Alright...and the moment you've all been waiting for....you know you're dying to see them yourselves....


THE NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK!!!!



For good measure...one more picture of them...


I admit.  I was a screaming, dancing fan.  And I did buy a T-Shirt.  I wasn't as out of control as some of the other girls there though...I did not bring my caboodle (like the group of girls behind us).  I did not make a home made t-shirt with one of the guys' pictures on it.  

I still have their original CD in my car.  We listen to it AT LEAST once a week.  I love their new music as well...let's face it, after The Jackson 5, they pretty much ARE the original Boy Band!  What girl my age isn't in love with them?!  (Just don't comment and tell me if you're not okay...nothing can bring me down from this high!)

Thank you Kara, for finding such a heart felt gift.  Something you thought through and KNEW would be PERFECT for me.  You're the best sister in the whole world...I'm so thankful God gave me YOU!
