Their Coming Home :cP

2010-02-02T21:42:00.003-06:00

Did you preorder your Coming Home DVD? If so, I hope you got it... if not... it will be coming home to you soon I hope!

I didn't preorder... I know I know... I don't get a golden ticket. I don't get a swatch of clothing. I don't get dog tag or a jewelery box. I know. But... I went to Best Buy and picked up the DVD today after searching in three Walmarts (yes, THREE!)... watched it and loved it. I miss them.

I spy with my eyes a few TC Blockheads in the DVD too... way to go girls!

New Baby

2010-02-01T23:07:00.002-06:00

Joe and Barrett welcomed their second child, son Rhys Edward, on December 13, 2009 in Los Angeles.

Rhys weighed in at 7 lbs., 10 oz.

Joey and Barrett, who announced the pregnancy in July, are already parents to older son Griffin Thomas, 2.

Will the family continue to grow? “I think we have a deal to keep going until we have a girl,” laughs Joey. “That’s what my wife says.”

Please... Don't... Go... Guuuuuuuurl

2010-02-01T23:00:00.004-06:00

Sorry... we have been on a huge hiatus! I actually was laid off from my job, ended up doing some traveling, remodeling two and 1/2 rooms in our house and had a few medical issues come up in my family.

But... I'm back... and ready to give you more details on the boys.

Let's Capture This!

2009-08-08T09:10:00.003-05:00

Do you realize how just one year of your life can flip things up side down? Let's think back to 08.08.08... are you there yet? I was there at 4:30 pm YESTERDAY, well not yesterday, 08.07.08. Yeah.... I was ahead of the game.

I'm just saying... who would have thought that a super sweaty hot girl would get sick of the song Summertime, to the point of almost yakking, run into some Barbie girls, some little boys, Maurice Starr, and have a front row seat to all of it? I didn't know that was for sure.

Even though I got to the point of stares, glares, and just straight up bitchiness people still turned out to be nice... if they kept their distance! I'm sorry for those of you who were around me, who were trying to help me and make sure I was okay. I guess I figured I was a "Big Girl Now" and could take care of myself. Apparently I can't when I haven't slept. :)

Over the past year there has been planning, chatting, crafting and more. Now we're celebrating knowing each other. It's crazy. This blog has gone from my thoughts to my dreams to reality.

Now, for those of you who were there, I know you've been thinking about the day yourself. If you were there then you should also be in St. Paul today for the reunion! For those of you not at the biggest damn mall in the country last year, you missed out on a great time. I hope my videos helped you through it :)

Just a reminder

NOTE: I do not know their actual due date, but I did create a ticker on the left so we can get an idea of how far along they are. I picked the middle of the month in December, so the 15th.

This is from: http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20291317,00.html

Joey McIntyre to Be a Dad Again
There's going to be another new kid on the block: Joey McIntyre tells PEOPLE that his wife Barrett is expecting their second child – a boy – in December.

"I still can't get over it," says the singer, 36, who also has 20-month-old son Griffin. "We feel so blessed."

So far baby no. 2 has already managed to throw his parents for a loop. "My wife actually took the [pregnancy] test but she thought it was negative," says McIntyre. "She came out and gave me this look like, 'No.' Then she showed me the test and I said 'It's positive! What the hell?'"

Then when the proud parents, who were convinced they were having a girl, found out they were adding another boy to the brood. "We were shocked," says McIntyre, who had his daughter's name picked out. But they're hardly disappointed. "It's going to be a trip to have a couple of boys around."

Griffin is more than ready for his new brother, says McIntyre, who grew up the youngest of nine kids. Along with constantly kissing his mommy's belly, "We say to him all the time, 'Do you want us to bring home a baby?'" Griffin's response? "Please!"

The toddler has also inspired Daddy to start a book drive through the Let's Get This Foundation. While on the road, McIntyre and the rest of the New Kids have collected thousands of new children's books and distributed them to children in need in various cities.

"My wife is an avid reader and from the get-go she sat down with him and read with him. You see the importance of that," says McIntyre, who also reads to Griffin some of his favorites like Good Night, Gorilla. "Then I found out there's a lack of age-appropriate books for kids, I saw a huge void and I knew our fans could step up." McIntyre hopes to reach 25,000 children by the time the guys wrap up their tour on July 18.

But the big question remains: Will his family grow to include nine kids? "I think we have a deal to keep going until we have a girl," says McIntyre with a laugh. "That's what my wife says."

Cruising Tips from New Kids on the Block

2009-05-18T13:07:00.000-05:00

See story on People.com

When the New Kids on the Block boarded a ship for the Bahamas on Friday, they were joined by 2,000 excited fans for a three-night cruise. "I don't know what we were thinking," jokes Donnie Wahlberg. "We have nowhere to run if it gets out of hand."

Sitting on the Promenade Deck before the ship departed from Miami, all five New Kids – Jordan Knight, Jonathan Knight, Joey McIntyre, Danny Wood and Donnie – shared their aquatic rules with PEOPLE.

Manscaping Is a Must
There's nothing wrong with a bit of personal grooming. While four of the New Kids said they prefer to be natural, Danny Wood admits to a bit of shaving and tweezing. "Yeah, I manscape," he says. "You've got to look good in a swimsuit. I live down here and I'm always at the beach, so it's kind of a must for me."

No Speedos or Mankinis
When asked which one of them packed a speedo, the other four members shout "Danny!" But Danny says his swimsuit won't be that revealing: "John Mayer may get away with a mankini, but the rest of us can't."

"What's a mankini?" Donnie asks.

"It's like a speedo with suspenders, but all one piece," explains Joey.

Keep Your Friends Close
If the ship were sinking and there weren't enough seats in the lifeboat, who would go down with the ship? "I'd give up my seat for these guys," says Wahlberg. "I'd do it in a heartbeat."

"I don't have kids," argues Jonathan, "so you can have my seat."

"I'd like to think I'd do that," says Joey, "but I have a little baby at home. So maybe I'd be the one to step all over everyone else to get in the boat."

Have a Plan for Being Shipwrecked
If the ship sets ground on the shore of an uncharted desert isle, the New Kids would all step into various Gilligan's Island-inspired roles.

"Jon would be the professor," says Danny. "He could build the huts. And Joey would be Mr. Howell, dressed up in a dinner jacket."

The rest of the guys think they're more like the Skipper, except for Jordan who admits, "I never watched Gilligan's Island enough to know what you're talking about."

"None of us are Gilligans," says Danny. "There are a couple of Gilligans in the Backstreet Boys, though."

"The problem is that there are no Gingers or Mary Anns," says Joey. "We've definitely got to have them on the island."

The three-day cruise, which is full of 2,000 Gingers and Mary Anns, by the way, concludes Monday. After the New Kids disembark, they'll return home to prepare for the kickoff of their summer tour, beginning in Atlanta on May 28.

Happy Anniversary TCBlockheads!

2009-05-13T12:00:00.001-05:00

A year ago I met up with some fellow Blockheads at a local pub. There were five of us, Lisa, Nicole, Peggy, Tiff and myself. That's where it all started in the flesh. Before they were just people on the internet who happened to have the same strange crazy need to see NKOTB again. Now, they are friends.

I'm not the type to get sappy and emotional about stuff... but honestly I'm so happy to have met you girls that day. We've gone through a lot this past year... let's recap...

The guys kicked off the tour on the Today Show where we learned of some fans Vicky and Sweetleaf.
They made us crazy for not being at Zootopia and at The House of Blues
Old footage popped up on YouTube what seems like over night!
We got really wacked out over a certain Donnie video, and now every single time we hear the song we instantly think of Donnie
They dropped their first video Summertime and we loved it, even Joe's teeth and the girl with the dress that she can't figure out.
We wished we were Canadian when they were on the Much Music Awards
We totally freaked out when we lost our community on www.nkotb.com but were so glad to have found the few of us that there was
We started planning right away when we heard word of them coming to the Mall of America
Unknowing to us Donnie gave us a total preview of The Block and we didn't have a frickin' clue.
Our little group made the FRONT PAGE of the Pioneer Press newspaper
Our whole group was front row center at the Mall of America appearance, and yes... FIRST IN LINE :)
Greatest Hits came around with a special DVD which made our day
I'm still wondering if they guys knew how big this return was when they made the promo video for the CD
A few of us thought about going to The Today Show, but lucky me my phone busted and I got cold feet and said no. It ended up being postponed because of a hurricane!
Huge stuff happened in September, especially on Block Day: the video to Single dropped, we found out what Face Time was, we met Zach, the boys were on The View.
We grew with more and more TCBlockheads each and every time we meet up
We had a NK Retreat in New Ulm
October was bananas. A few of us took on the sold out Chicago show, we hung out all day waiting for St. Paul Face Time and got none, and we took over 5* in Milwaukee.
They boys were on the American Music Awards
We thought there could be a cruise
The boys started another tour on top of their other tour
There was an appearance on Regis and Kelly along with another Today Show performance and the 2 in the morning video
Everyone wondered if it was the real D Dub twittering
Of course it was Donnie Fing Wahlberg twittering
A group of us took up the Green Bay show and I reminded Danny about our conversation Milwaukee with my cheesehead
We wondered what the hell TINK was
We found out what TINK was and had yet another Today Show performance

Wow girls... I hope those of you that are going on the cruise take tons of pictures and remember each and every detail since you'll be gone on "our anniversary". Let's have another great year :)

TINK!

My Green Bay Review

2009-04-14T16:27:00.010-05:00

Well... one week ago today I woke up bright and early, hopped into my car and drove over to Melissa house. We were meeting a fellow Blockhead Nicole there for our journey across the entire state of Wisconsin. Shortly after I arrived Nicole did and we were off like a prom dress.

As I settled into the backseat my phone started blowing up with Twitters. The buses had arrived in Green Bay that early morning around 7am. People were searching for our boys... and I hoped we weren't too late. We made a few pit stops to grab lunch, bathroom breaks and pick up an additional battery at Best Buy for Nicole. Thankfully we didn't want to spend something like $70... who knows who would have helped us!

We finally made it over the river and thru the woods and arrived at Trisha's house. We were shown to our "Hotel de Monty" room in the basement and had only the excitement of a few little ones. I headed off to get ready for stalking and started texting all my peeps. I pulled out my freshly made new shirt for stalking and the show, token hat and a big block of cheese. Yup... I brought the foam cheesehead with me and had huge dreams for it at the show.

I came down from the bathroom and showed off my new shirt along with my burn. Yeah... well apparently I shouldn't craft by myself... or on the floor. I was wrapping up the very last sleeve on my shirt when bam! The iron that was so nicely sitting on the floor where I was working suddenly tipped over and left me with a burn. Yeah... great. And of course, it's on my Hangin' Tough arm :( The rest of the ladies got ready while I entertained the kiddos and Trisha shushed off her daycare kid to his mom.

Then it was time... we piled into the car again and we were off to Green Bay. Only about 45 minuets away but it seemed like forever. Now mind you... I had hoped for a little drinky drink to be in my system by now. Such is life.

We drove and drove and finally reached the Resch Center. There were a group of Blockheads waiting outside and I knew then that I was ready and wanted to get in the mix! But, I stayed in the car. LOL. We parked next to a decked out NKOTB van at a hotel and figured if they were there we could be too, right? I headed for the back of the car to pop open my wine and filled up two handy NKOTB cups then we were on our way. Mind you... this is the same type of wine I was drinking in 5* in Milwaukee and was happy Kimmy. I was shooting for the same results with a little less talking about Danny's junk.

We found our way past a pervert who lost a boot (HA! why didn't we take a picture?). Finally making our way over to where the Blockheads were. We ran into Shelly and her crew. We chatted a bit and discussed any plans of meeting up later. I decided to see if I knew anyone from the other side of the block. Ends up I did! I didn't take but two feet off the first curb when my name was screamed out... it was Kayleigh and Katie from our 5* Milwaukee picture. Here I wasn't sure if we were going to run into them or not... but as luck had it we did. We chatted up some "supposedly situations" that were evolving in front of our eyes. They commented on the cup and said it must be my NKOTB water. Shooooot... I should bottle it and sell it under that name!

We went to take pictures of the marque since I have forgotten each and every time to take a picture and then decided that we would head to the other end of the bus packed lot. We hung out just chatting up with people. There was a guy with a cheesehead... I had to laugh knowing mine was in the car. We saw a few Jabbawockeez dancers who were the opening act but weren't sure if it actually was them at the time. We also may have seen Danny's Dad and daughters... that's still not totally confirmed in my head but it's been said that they were walking around the buses.

After hanging out there for a bit we ran into Sara. Poor girls car went to pot on her way to the show but she made. We decided to go to The Bar for some dinner and drinks and to meet up with our buyer from craigslist for our original tickets. I dined on wings and wine while most everyone else was hitting up the beer. Delish.

Kim and Alexis made there way into town after their roundabout journey back and forth and zig zag. The stopped in The Bar for some chatting and a well deserved drink or two. Then it was off to the showers for them while we stayed hanging out till show time.

We walked from the bar to the Resch Center with my cup refilled one last time in hand. Yum. I swear we were walking for 20 minuets when all the sudden poof there were the doors. I tossed out the last part of my drink - apparently not every last drop though and threw the doors I went.

I walked up to the will call window and realized that I was pretty damn buzzed. Crap. I have to talk to these people and be coherent. Crap. I apparently pulled it off because I had the tickets in hand and we were ready to find out if there were any track jackets.

All I wanted... a stupid track jacket. Everyone got them last time around... what the heck did I wait for? I didn't want to be one of "those" fans. The one who bought it and never wore it in public. And when I decided that if I got one that actually fit I would wear it and would love it... but the frickin tour was over for that leg and no more track jackets for me. Stupid me. So I thought I'll just get the '09 one. I'll be fine. Well... no go. A.) the didn't have them at the show and B.) they were black and gold. WTF... black and GOLD???? Yes, I know we all have a little Joe Mac in us... but I don't have that much. No thank you.

We managed to purchase more drinks at the concession stand and headed to our seats. We started from the 2nd level, walked all the way down to the floor, and then walked from the back of the arena to the front. Every few steps into a new section saying HOLY COW WE ARE CLOSE. And then there it was.... row 4. Just for us.

Walked in, settled into our section and looked around. No cheeseheads ANYWHERE. What the heck Wisconsin? Where were they at? Did you really leave them at home? Seriously? Well Sara and I had ours and were ready to share them with the guys. I noticed a few of my other Blockhead friends sitting on the main floor as well. It's crazy to think you'll bump into someone at a concert that you know... but I actually bumped into quite a few and am happy to say I'm glad to know them. Hey ladies!

I started to "make friends" with the people around us. The reason being that I was hoping to chuck a two foot piece of foam threw the air to the stage without hitting anyone after I had been sipping on wine. Yeah.... I made friends just in case I hit them in the head! The lady next to me thought it was a brilliant idea and wished that she had one too. So cute.

The show started with the only opening act from America's Best Dance Crew. I wasn't sure if I should record or take pictures and then realized that my camera was doing some god awful pictures. I talked to the girls ahead of time and thankfully they said they would share any pics that they took. I started recording. The act was fun and had some great music. I know my hubby would have really enjoyed them actually.

Then.... the boys. Well I of course don't want to go into too much detail about the show... I'm hoping you all get a chance to see the guys. But what I will tell you is this. It was hot. Seriously hot. The new opening... well... I'm just going to say that I think Single is a better opening number for them to perform, I know I'm not the only one. The guys looked fantastic and we were on the Danny side this time which I of course enjoyed.

Directly in front of us was a speaker on stage that the guys would jump up on and look into the audience. It was a great platform for us to get some great photos. Kayleigh and Katie even made it onto the big screen during Joe's medley.

I did know the new song that was the "cue" to head to the b stage. I knew I was going. I turned to Trisha and asked her. She said she would. Then I found out that Melissa had followed behind us too. We were told we had to go up to the 2nd level - that we couldn't go back to the b stage. Ugh.... they were onto us. Up we went... and down we went a few sections over.

The security guard there wouldn't let us get down to the floor level. I played dumb and said, "But my seats are in 4th row and I'm missing the show". He looked at me and said to trust him that I'd be happier if I stayed right where I was for the time being. I knew that the guys would actually be coming out right next to us but that's not where I wanted to be. I wanted to be NEXT to the b stage. No go.

Back up to 2nd floor we went and back to the first section by our seats since they weren't going to let us next to the b stage. Well it ends up that the first section didn't have steps down to the floor. The security guard wanted us to go all the way back up to 2nd floor just to come down the section over. I told him honestly buddy... I can't do that. And told him the whole story of the whole up down up down up down thing. I wasn't having it. I turned and noticed Trisha was gone.

Melissa and I were there. I talked the security guard into letting us stay right where we were until the guys got back onto the main stage. PERFECT! I knew the guys would be walking right past us. That's when I would pass off the cheesehead! And that's just what happened. I gave Jon a high five as he passed, gave Danny the cheesehead, got a Jordan and Joe on camera and of course a high five from Donnie. Awesome! It could not have been more perfect.

Danny actually wore the cheesehead out onto the stage. Thanks everyone who supplied me photos of it - check out my album on Facebook. Wooot woooo! I only wish I could have seen it from my 4th row seat instead of under the left side ramp. The security guard let us jump down and head to our seats. People congratulated me on getting Danny the cheesehead and we were back to the show.

The cheesehead actually ended up becoming a prop for the show. It was in the Click x 3 pose off on Donnie's head.

And then again towards the very end of the show it was on the guitar guys head and on the keyboard mic stand. It was fantastic. I loved it. And, not to mention the other two cheeseheads that made their way to the stage - Sara's and Terrie's. Way to go girls!

After the show I talked with Kim and Alexis and they suggested that I talk to Chris about getting the cheesehead back. After all I didn't want it going to some random bimbo. He told us that he can't give it to us that Jon actually wanted to keep it. I was totally cool with that... now if that's really what happened with it who knows.

We left and headed out to see if we could catch the buses. We caught them but with no love from the guys. I guess after 6 shows in a row you may be a bit tired... lol. At least we received a twitter from Jon stating that they weren't staying in town and were headed to Canada. There was no use in staying around so we headed back to Trisha's house for the night.

Whew. It was a great time. Danny... you did it for me AGAIN :)

Hey NKOTB... got that cheesehead?

2009-04-09T14:31:00.002-05:00

Well for those of you who don't know, I left a little message on the inside of my cheesehead that I gave to Danny in Green Bay. I had 5* in Milwaukee in October 2008 and asked Danny a pretty personal question. Thanks to the help of liquid courage the deed was done. Thanks to Nicki I have a video all about it while my drunk butt tells the story from my wrong seat in Milwaukee.

On that cheesehead was my web address for here. Hopefully the guys will stop by :)

For those of you who haven't seen this... beware of my drunkin' potty mouth about man parts!

I actually didn't get this... WTF?

Anyways... the link to Jimmy Kimmel isn't showing anything to a NKOTB mini concert for free tickets and the phone number is "out of service" so I'm not sure if this was an OOPS we don't have all the kinks worked out and we saw that with the first group of people that we sent it to thus resulting in me not getting it or what the heck happened. Needless to say... I share :)

Green Bay Tickets

2009-02-16T14:42:00.000-06:00

So I failed to mention that I actually DID get tickets. In fact, myself, Trisha and Melissa will all be together at the show. We attempted to find floor seats, but that was a no go... WTF? But we did manage to get the first section off the stage 210. We're pretty close to the bottom - and on the side that if the guys have a B stage they would run past us. Woot.

Not that I don't love the "new" ones that I've seen since your announcement of the reunion or the ones that we found on the bonus CD.

Thanks guys.

Green Bay! Green Bay!

2009-01-28T13:13:00.000-06:00

So I tried getting tickets today for the pre-sale that was happening for April 7th in Green Bay. As many of you know that's pretty close to my home town. I don't think all the tickets were released for the pre-sale since I was only able to get sections 210 for two people and even if I tried for a single ticket it was like the last row on the floor. No good. I'll wait till they go on sale on Saturday and try again :)

Holy Craps! GREEN BAY BABY :)

Travel from Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. to the Bahamas with the Boys
Tickets go on sale Wednesday, Jan. 14. - yeah... that's tomorrow

Rumors are swirling... I've heard prices of $2,000 a person... that's just crazy. I for one will not be going at that price. Sorry boys.... love ya... but Hubby and I went on our 7 day honeymoon cruise for that price and four different ports!

Wowsers... sorry!

2009-01-07T10:58:00.000-06:00

Well I've been slacking this past month... there's that whole Christmas and New Years holiday thing thrown in there so I blame it on that!

What do we know... well... Donnie is off tapping Bunker Hill while the guys are on break from their tour for the holidays.

Joe turned another year older on New Year's Eve while Donnie and Danny were hooping it up in Vegas.

As of today we are still waiting to see what this email means...

Dear NKOTB fans:

Happy Holidays from New Kids on the Block! Stay tuned for BIG announcements to come top of 2009! You won’t want to miss your opportunity for more FACE TIME!!!!

*** SAVE THE DATE MAY 15 – 18, 2009 ***

Ughhhh... just tell us already. People are saying it may be another cruise. Oh how I'd love to go on a cruise (my hubby and I went for our honeymoon). But, I know if that's what it is I don't think I'll be going. I just couldn't leave hubby behind and go cruising with the 5 guys and a shipload of girls. Could you even imagine... all those girls on a boat... bitch slaps everwhere!
