and the MP3 player is a REALLY good idea!

 

[MIdanceMom]

Hi Jen,

I think a MP3 player would be a HUGE help. I get very bored without the distraction of music.

I hope you are feeling better. Get as much rest as possible. I laso hope thingsimprove at work.

Take care,
Beth

hmmmmm, maybe you should come down EARLIER so we can get a walk in together?? (that is, if my hip holds up ).

Glad you're feeling better (don't wanna catch your cooties) and a big WOO HOO to you for keeping up with your workouts while not feeling great. That's tough to do. And I agree...an MP3 player is a great idea!

See ya on Saturday. Hope your breath is fresh, but not minty fresh.

Hey Jen,

Sounds like you have a great weekend planned! Great job keeping up with your workouts even when you don't feel well.

Have a great weekend!

What a GREAT weekend!!

Lets just say i had an AMAZING time! I took my buddy Kim with me to the concert and here isi my concert report

We ended up getting to Philly around 7;15 or so--we went to the Will call window to get the tickets and found out we were on the floor, center section ,row 10!!! I was SO excited!

We werent initerested ini the opening acts, so we got a couple of drinks and pretzels and just people-watched. It was great! Some people really were dressed quite interesting for a concert! When the guys came out, i started snapping pictures and didnt stop--ended up wth almost 70 from the night! At one point, it looked like Adam recognized me--i know he has seen pictures of me before. during one song, i was right next to the stage and he kinid of did a double take and winked--so that was pretty neat

The concert was amazing!! We both had such a great time and did not want the night to end! They played "alyssa's song" near the end of the show. iit was a bit emotional..I was tearing up and got goose bumps, but held it together so i was happy i didnt make a fool of myself!. After the show, we waited around for about 10-15 minutes--the band manager told my friend that he would come out and get us after the show if the band was hanging around so we could meet them! I saw the manager come out, so i was walking over to him and the guys cleanng up wouldnt let us exit that way..I tried yelling his name b ut he couldnt hear me...So we had to leave without meeting the guys--I was really disappointed but we had a ball anyway!

Now, m going to go through hte pictures and post a c ouple so you can see how close i was!!!

 

[Blueeyes101817]

Here are some pictures--only a couple but it was hard to choose from the 70 pictures--i was thrilled with how the pictures came out

First, the self portrait of kim and i

Here is the stage, wiithout zooming in, so you can see how close our seats were

Thanks for letting me share all this guys!
