New Kids on the Block are back!!!!

I did not believe it until I saw it! This past April 2008, New Kids on the Block announced on the Today show that they are back and going on tour. On May 15th they performed LIVE on the Today show! Their single "Summertime" has already been released and I am so excited to hear the rest of their new album! I am so excited about their tour as well and I already have tickets to the show here in Vegas on October 11th, the show in Tacoma on November 21st AND VIP tickets to the show in Portland on November 22nd (which means I will get to sit in the first ten rows and meet them in person!). Like many fans have said, "I feel like a teenager again". I have never been so into a group or band like I am into NKOTB! Who is my favorite? That is always what everyone asks......of course Joey!!!!! Always has been, always will be!! Like I said before, I am SOOOOOOO EXCITED! :)

Father's Day Weekend

My parents and brother Ryan just spent Ryan's Birthday (13th) and Father's Day weekend with us. They drove up Friday and spent the night at the hotel I work at, the JW Marriott Resort here in Las Vegas. Of course, I was able to get them a fabulous upgrade and they had the kids come and stay with them and enjoyed the pool the next morning. Then they spent Saturday and Sunday evenings at our house and we had a wonderful Father's Day weekend together. Unfortunately we will probably not get to see them as conveniently or as often now.......
.......for those of you who don't know yet, my parents are moving back to Washington again. My dad's company closed their plant and so he was out of a job yet again. He had been searching in the Utah area as well as Washington/Oregon. The job that ended up working out for him is located about 45min north of Vancouver in Longview, Washington. So my parents will be looking to live in the Ridgefield area. My dad starts work on June 30th while my mom stays behind to get the house sold before she heads up. Ryan is also planning on moving back as well.
I am definitely bummed. I was really enjoying having them so close and we quite often took long weekends to drive up and visit. I don't know how often we will get to visit them in Vancouver as it is a very long drive and plane tickets are quite expensive for my whole family. But, when I do get to visit, I will really enjoy visiting the Vancouver area again and all of my friends that I do not get to see very often. We are planning on visiting for the Thanksgiving holiday already. :)

FOUR GENERATIONS

Here's a picture that is special to me. It is My Grandma Jones, my mom, me and Abby. Four generations of women!

We are blogging!

I got roped into it! We now have our own blogspot. What can I say? Everybody is doing it. :)
A big thank you goes to Tami Huntsman, one of my very best friends, who helped me set up this blog! I could not have done it without her. As you can see it is still a work in progress. But I am sure once I get the swing of things it will be nonstop!
As most of you know, I love pictures! So I am sure there will be lots and lots of pictures. For those of you who live in other states it will be a great way to keep you updated. :)
