Magic Mountain

This past weekend we went down to Magic Mountain for Fright Fest with Tami & Carl Huntsman. We had a blast! It was so much fun to hang out just as couples. Can't wait to do it again soon! Thanks Carl & Tami for a great weekend!

Game Night

Every month Rachel has a Game Night for the Girls at her house. It is mostly the Coronado Ward that goes....but every once in a while some of us Pinnacle ward gals go and have a blast!

Portland NKOTB Concert Cancelled

I don't even know what to do right now. I just got an email that the concert in Portland has been cancelled. That was the concert that I was going to get to meet the guys at. I called right away and all they are going to do is refund our tickets to us. I am still going to the Tacoma show, but I don't have VIP 5 tickets for that show and will not get to meet the guys. I just don't understand why they wouldn't do anything for those of us that have the Meet and Greet tickets in Tacoma. Why couldn't they schedule extra time for us to meet them there? I am totally bummed! All VIP 5 tickets are sold out for the rest of their tour in the USA. There goes that childhood dream that was so close to coming true!

NKOTB Concert Vegas 2008!

What a night! The New Kids on the Block sure know how to put on a show still! It was the best concert I have ever been to! Rachel, Tami and I met Claudia at the Mandalay Bay at 6p and had dinner. Then we headed to the concert where Rachel and Tami had to get their "Right Stuff" tshirts. Then we split up to head to our seats. Tami and I had floor seats in Sec 5 row 8. Claudia and Rachel were in Balcony 210 row 2...but they were determined to work their way down closer to the stage.....and they did! They ended up in one of the 100 section balconies and the first row! So they had an amazing view as well! I still liked our seats better because part of the concert the guys are on a back circular stage that rotates. That stage was only 5 rows behind us! We were so close! Some of the amazing video below is from that view. Again can I say....WHAT A CONCERT! I almost lost my voice from singing and screaming the whole time. After the concert was over we headed over to LAX at the Luxor for the after party. Oh my gosh the crowd was crazy! I had to PUSH my way through the crowd like I've never pushed before! Finally I got the bouncer to let us in. Shortly later NKOTB showed up at the club and it was crazy! We could only watch them from a distance. So we finally left and headed home. It was so fantastic and I am so happy that they came back on tour. I would be totally bummed if I didn't have two more concerts to go to in November! Thanks girls for being part of a NIGHT TO REMEMBER!

Video from the NKOTB Vegas Concert

Ok. I took some good video on my camera at the concert...but this blog will only accept up to 100MB video. Most of mine are over that. I am bummed.
Here are a couple of the shorter clips I have from when the guys were on the rotating stage behind us (only 5 rows away). It was crazy they were so close! The first one is just a little clip of Joey. Just in case you didn't know....he's my fave!
Make sure you pause the music on my player first so that you can hear them.

2 In The Morning

Here is a clip of 2 In The Morning....again, not very long.

More 2 In The Morning (Joey singing)

This one got a little blurry because I zoomed in a little to close. I am still trying to figure out my new camera. This is where Joey is singing.

Dirty Dancin'

Ok. This one is also blurry, but they sound good singing Dirty Dancin'. I wish it wasn't blurry because I love to see Joey dance.

New Camera

I just got a new camera. I was wondering why my pictures weren't turning out as clear as I wanted them too. Now I know. We got our digital camera a couple years ago when digital cameras were still fairly new. It is only a 2 megapixel camera. I just got our new one, which is much smaller and more compact, with a larger screen and it is 8 megapixels. So much clearer! I am very happy with my purchase. It is a Cannon Powershot. Love it so far!
Above is a picture I took while experimenting with it. It seems the pics appear clearer when they are larger, but downloading to the computer, I am still trying to find the trick to get them to downsize and still be clear. Let me know if you know the trick. :)
