Hoe-Down-
We all got dressed and headed back to the place I believe we arrived about 6:30 which wasn’t so bad since there was people already there before us and I was unsure about arriving early but they had the place set up and going which was pretty quick everyone was working their butts off, we went and found some seats, and watched Brian and Leighanne do some sound check but shortly after we were told that if we weren’t family or friend’s to head back to the entrance until then we talked with Madison and gave our feedback about the fair and we told her that the dunking and photo booth needs to come back next year after ten minutes or so we were let back in to go back to our seats and we were introduced about what was happening where the food and drinks were and whatnot, as they started a table on each side we all headed up to watch the band called Simple Alliance they were good and they got to sing two songs with Brian Larger Than Life and I Want It That Way, I had missed a little bit of it due to going to the car to get something for Brian but the performance I did see was really enjoyable after a while we got our food and ate eventually it was time to start dancing I did the first square dancing and couldn’t do it but I was with Jodi and other’s and we just kept making our own dances due to not knowing a thing which was pretty fun ha-ha.
Madison came up eventually and did a speech and then told us that they were putting Angels and Heroes’, Baylee Blessing’s, and HHC all into one and changing it to “Just Ask” it will be for all over the world so if you have any problem they will want you to just ask and they will try to help you anyway they can which I thought was a sweet honor thing to do, it made me smile and Brian gave Leighanne a bouquet of flower’s which was very sweet because he just asked her to be his wife it was too cute. Leighanne also made a speech about our dear friend that passed away in July which she did a great job even though she was trying so hard to not cry and it made me cry along with Sofia and we went and hugged Debbie after the speech was done she did make a tote in Kristina’s name and that how some of the money was going to go to her charity. Shortly after Brian came onto the stage and sand two songs from his solo album which were Angels and Heroes and Welcome Home (you) Baylee also came out and sang I Want You Back from Jackson 5 which he did very well Brian joined in and performed with him shortly after Leighanne joined Brian on stage and they both sang two songs "Run to you" and "Need you now" by Lady Antebellum which I thought they did amazing well, I think they need to do a duet in the future, Leighanne kept saying she had a hard time hearing herself and wasn’t sure but Brian told her it was fine and he can hear her it was cute she came down to us after the show and we all told her she did amazing and I told her I have the entire show recorded and I can send her it and she was like “I don’t know I sounded horrible” we had to convince her she did great, lol!
Everyone all met and starting dancing again I ended up asking Leighanne to be my partner, and she was holding my hand for the longest time and wouldn’t let go and kept squeezing my hand as trying to figure things out and with Sofia also being there Brian was like “what about me” ha-ha I danced with Leighanne during Everybody I kept getting shoved away so Leighanne kept grabbing me to stay up with her it was really nice and we told Leighanne to get Brian he came and joined Leighanne and us for Larger Than Life which I had a great time doing so Brian was doing the dance moves so I started to do it with him and when it came to jump I did it and he pointed at me with a huge smile, I’m surprised I didn’t fall on my butt but it was really fun to be around and dancing with the Littrell’s. We also did some square dancing as Prue was my partner and we were listening and following the instructions with Leighanne, Brian, Miguel, Jodi and others but I became very confused within seconds so Prue and I just started doing funny faces to each other and we didn’t listen to one thing after that, then we all formed 3 lines and eventually after awhile Prue and I got the hang of it she was a great dance partner to have we had a few funny moments and she kept spinning me so hard that I almost fell on my butt ha-ha then it was time to do the Hokey Pokey which was really fun it was good times although Brian and Leighanne were getting down and enjoying a lot more than usual which was cute though and it was fun to see Brian shake his ass like no other ha-ha. Towards the end Brian and Leighanne were taking photo’s and I ended up getting one and Brian was asking what we were doing because Leighanne and I were having a conversation and doing something with our hands which totally makes me clueless I cannot remember why and we all said good-bye and headed back to the hotel and I remember passing out before everyone else ha-ha. Over all I had a great time at the Hoe-Down I was there to have fun and I did I ended up dancing most of the night with Yolanda and got down and showed what we had even Brian watched us for a few seconds which is something I didn’t want happening ha-ha the dust from the dirt really got to me I ended up having a small asthma attack, :\
Wylee Party
Just For Giggles
October 11th 2010
We arrived pretty early which we didn’t really intend to do as we pulled up Brian and Drew were getting inside the truck and I was like “Nice truck” he goes “That’s how we roll baby” ha-ha after Brian was done chatting and making his usual voices and all they took off back to the house so we walked inside and I asked if they just wanted us to wait outside and which they did they were still setting up. When we were let in I started looking around and I saw Leighanne and told her that she needs to make me a pink and black backpack and I also told her if she did pink pants I would buy them she goes I tried to find the fabric and whatnot and then that’s when she introduced me to the make your own tote that they were doing which I was into but wasn’t sure so as she was explaining it to others I was looking for idea’s which she ended up liking but I didn’t go through with it but later on after looking everywhere and seeing what I really wanted I decided to go with the tote so I went back and choose what I wanted and paid for it. They had snacks and little squares of Cheesecake which I ended up being by at one point and Baylee was there eating piece after piece I was like “hey now no more” he looks at me and tries to take few more to eat I was like “you’re going to be off the walls now” ha-ha but I also grabbed a few myself so SD was like you’re being just like Baylee, ha-ha! I just laid low at the party pretty much I often went outside due to how crowded it was at times but the party was a huge success.
I got to talk to Leighanne for a few times, one time I wanted to tell her something and I forgot we ended up just laughing but yet I had something important I wanted to ask her oh well. I got to talk to Brian twice for very short time I really didn’t want to bother him I asked him if he could do the video for my mom which we didn’t end up doing the day before and he told me why he couldn’t so I just called my mom and he did say happy birthday to my mom and said I love you in a cute voice and later on the day he was talking to a few people about different stuff and I was just listening and when he brought up about Baylee and the costume I was like “he told me yesterday he wanted to be dark Vader, and he was going to make you wear a tutu” and Brian was all “a tutu” ha-ha. I ended up saying good bye to Leighanne because I thought we were leaving and we ended up staying until the end due to my bag being the last one to be finished and I gave the lady props for doing all those bags!At the end we sang happy birthday to Miguel and everyone did their thanks and Leighanne was given flower’s which she let me smelled as she walked by me and they smelled good and they were pink my favorite color. While I was waiting for my bag I ended up sitting on the floor just chilling and I was just listening to Brian and other’s talk and my friend made a comment to Brian about who was for sale due to Baylee walking around with a “for sale” sign and she told
Brian if he was it I would take him ha-ha and around that time we all talked with Leighanne as well and Yolanda was crying and I started crying and Leighanne tells me “Don’t start crying” ha-ha I couldn’t help it. Finally when my bag was finished I went to go get it and Brian was giving hugs to everyone and I just walked by and said good bye then he held out his arms for a hug so I ended up hugging him good bye and told him I’ll see him in a couple of months and he just said okay ha-ha he probability wasn’t thinking I was meaning the cruise ha-ha then on our way out we ran into Leighanne again and she ended up giving us all hugs good bye and I hugged her one last time and I showed her my bag and she loved it she was all shouting for Miguel to show him and she told me she wants it on the site which made me feel proud and then somehow she got splitter in her finger from my bag and she couldn’t get it so I ended up getting it for her and we all left back to the hotel.
This next part isn’t related to the event but I just wanted to share. Monday evening a group of us that known Kris we all wrote messages and put them on balloons and sent them up to the sky and I’m thankful I got to be a part of it, and I noticed when we sent the balloons up there was more stars shining out which means she was telling us she got the messages, we all shared memories and talked about her it was great to be with others and do this.
