The Big Apple:)

Quite a while back we played Madison Square Garden... yes you read correctly! It was so much fun! First of all just being home was amazing, I just love that city!

We had 7 shows in 3 days... It was a little intense, and because it was MSG the pressure was on for perfection! There were producers, the creative team, Nickelodeon, jaded New York kids everyone was there! You can't meet up to everyone's expectations ... this guy decided he should give us a personal review of the show, then post it on youtube...



Yeah... Glen is a little bitter. The comments are even better... People are pissed! They hate it... But it doesn't seem to be hurting ticket sails ... we're still sold out everywhere we go. I don't know I can't watch the hole thing it makes me angry!

So anyways on a better note I got to see my parents:) My mom came for the weekend, witch was amazing. Dad was flying home from France and had them schedule a layover in NY:)

It was so nice to see them! I love my parents!

The very last show I got to go on as Pablo, that's the real reason mom came:) It was so exciting a bunch of my friends came to view the train wreck ... or show, hahaha:)

Before the show I had my first meet and greet. (A meet and greet is just a thing for privileged kids to meet there favorite characters before the show, I have no idea how you get one of these... I guess you have to know someone involved with the show) I was doing it with LaRaisha, who was going on for Uniqua. I was kind of nervous... ok I was pooping my pants! We got ourselves all pumped up and ready, we skip into the room, say hello:) This little girl comes running up to me and gives me this huge, my heart melted it was the cutest thing ever! I look up and who do I see in the corner my Mom and Jonny dying with laughter! This was my reaction:

Just totally took me out of it! I couldn't stop laughing!

My mom always does stuff like this! I don't know how she does it!

It's show time now... some of my amazing friends came to see the train wreck ... I mean show:) I got them all wands just so that they would have the full experience.

Jocie, One of my amazing roommates took pics from the show...

Intermission ...

Apparently they got a little bored:)

Act 2...

After the show we went to eat and then we went to Mary's house to watch the Tony's, mom got a little drunk - it was perfect night:)

Although It was amazing being in NY, seeing all my friends and family, you know something has to go wrong, it's New York... well my I-pod got stolen, $1,600 and beef jerky got snatched from the cash box in stage managements office and something happened with the lights causing $61,000 damage... Thank God for insurance right:)

Love you all. Talk to you later:)

I'm Back! (Part 2)

Sorry for leaving you on such a hanger, I bet you were all just beside yourselves... Now I'm sure that towards the end of Part 1 there's a lot of misspellings/ retarded sentences, but I'm not going to change them ... just leave your judgment outside and sound things out if the word is unrecognizable...:) lolol

One thing that I forgot to tell you about Wed, is after our Deception Pass trip we went over to Issaquah to see The Village Theaters production of Aida. It was pretty good! I didn't realize my friend was playing the lead!

Her names Ryah Nixon ... She's kind of a big deal. What out for her she's quite talented!

Ok so were did I leave off yesterday? Oh that's right Friday Fireworks ... Oh This is exciting. Saturday we went to Seattle:)

We met up with my cousin's Amy and Erin for lunch, we got Tubs Gourmet Subs, the best sandwich place in America! Maybe even the world ... yep I said it! I love them! We got them to go and ate down at Gas Works Park

It's one of my favorite places in Seattle, you get the best view of the city! Just as a point of reference Gas Works is were they filmed the paint ball scene in 10 things I hate about you.

After, The best sandwich in the world, we hoped on the bridge and went down town...

Amy made us take this picture... lol so cheesy I know:) but downtown there's a bunch of real nice shopping! We just wandered a bit. Then we jumped on the monorail and went to the other side of town, to the City Center.

There's this huge fountain:

We thought it would be a really good idea to touch the dome...

We never made it... I got closer than Jonny but we didn't want to be soaking wet for the rest of the day.

Amy said that Jonny and I reeked of that water for the rest of day...lol I didn't smell it tho. You know... downtowns pretty touristy! They have all these things that you can take pictures with... of corse we did it!

Speaking of touristy, we wanted to go up in the Space Needle ... but the line was too long, we didn't have enough time. So we took so pics under it:

I know I look like a legal midget in those pics! We are standing on little balls and I was falling off, cause they didn't share:)

After that we did a couple of the little rides they have in the "Fun Forest" ... I think ... I don't really remember what it was called, but the rides are like 100 years old ... you definitely have to ride at you own risk!

It was fun tho... after that we went to Pike Place Market:) It's an open market that is over 100 years old. Here's a little history; In 1906 the price for Onions was jacked up do to high demand. Outraged Seattlights were not having it, so Thomas Revelle proposed that there be a "Public Market" were the citizens can purchase goods directly from the vendor, cutting out the middle man. On the 1st day it opened only 8 farmers showed up with produce while 10,000 eager buyers came hopping down the hill. Everything was gone by 11:00 AM:) Now about 10 million people a year come to enjoy the 9 acres that is Pike Place Market. (Are you impressed Stef?)

This little fish vendor has made a multi million dollar company out of the throwing fish... it's one of the mane attractions at Pike Place... Jonny got an amazing picture of them in the act:

I would like to draw attention to the lady that's crouched down in front... just scared for her life! wouldn't that be amazing if the fish hit her in the face... lololol ok I know that's rude!

And to made Pike Place even more amazing - it homes the to birth place to Starbucks!!! Yep here my friends is the original emblem to the empire that is Starbucks coffee:

Tities and all ... are you surprised they changed it? I'm not:)

Because you can't go to Pike Place and not come home with some amazing, fresh, way to expensive fish! Jonny and I had to pic some up. This man was very helpful in picking out the perfect salmon and crap leg for our BBQ that night.

$70 later we were set and on our way.

That night Charel, a good friend of the family had us over for dinner... we provided the fish she did everything ells ... we call her Martha, she makes Christmas tree butter molds for chrissake ... she's amazing! This is her and my mom:)

The company, food, everything was amazing! The hole week was amazing! Jonny and I did not want to leave!

In fact it was quite hard getting thru the show today! I had way too much fun on brake!

On our two flights back Jonny illegally took some photo's on the plane:

We just couldn't resist. Isn't it beautiful!? We actually had quite an eventful 1st flight... sitting next to us, in the flesh, was the teacher who had the affair with Dawson from Dawson's Creek. Yep we shared the same armrest! She was very nice, right now she's currently in Day's of Our Life's and she looks great!

So now I'm back on tour, Jonny's back in NY. We're in Jacksonville Florida right now... we'll be hopping around the south for a while. Just sweating our balls off! But I'm sure I will have a lot of pool pandemonium to report on ... lol

Love you all and I'll talk to you later:)

I'm Back! (Part 1)

I'm so sorry for the hiatus! Things have been busy, but good for you that means I have a lot to report on:) I know I haven't done NY yet but you're just going to have to wait cause wile it's fresh I was to do these last 2 weeks:)

Before our much needed week off, we did 7 shows in DC. Jonny came down since that's were his parents live. On our day off we went downtown with the intention of viewing Dorthy's Rubie Slippers... but there in storage right now cause The Museum of American History is being renovated. So for a second best we went to The Museum of just plain ol History. We saw the Hope Diamond (Quite surprising: It was not guarded at all, the only thing separating us from billions of dollars is a piece of glass. There much be some Harry Potter spell on it!) Then we hoped on over to the Butterfly house;

Aren't they gorgeous! They're were about 200 of them in the tiny little green house.

If Jonny and I were Butterflies this would be us...

I think I'm the cut up one of the right and he's the put together one on the Left:)

After that, we saw a riveting tale of life in 3D on I-Max called, Monsters of the Sea! We fell asleep! It was about the life of this dolphin like creature in the Era of the Dinosaurs, and finding there fossils today? I think? After the initial wow of the I-Max/3D the story became really boring... lololol

Later that week we had a family outing too;

I loved it... is that bad? I love how there's only like 5 lines in the show but you don't really care! The robots are quite entertaining... Jonny's parents fell asleep:)

To end our lovely time in DC we did another delightful sailing trip in Chesapeake Bay. This one was quite eventful, not only did we get to swim in the bay (the water was so warm it was amazing) but I almost died! Ok well, I didn't almost die, I almost lost my leg. Jonny and I were sun bathing on the front of the boat, just loving life. When they turned we didn't here them yell, whatever they yell. All the sudden the sail was right over us and my leg was caught in between two ropes... Jonny was just laughing he says all he herd was screaming and seeing my legs just flaying all over the place ... I probably would have laughed too if I saw it:) All is good I just have a little cut that's going away... It was so much fun thou, after that we had a BBQ in this beautiful section of the beach! Jonny and I might have taken a little too much to the wine;


Or maybe it was the sun... I don't know, aether or, we had a great time!

---

Now this brings us to our Seattle adventure:) Yep mom flew us home to spend some time with the fam! Jonny did amazing, he met pretty much everyone, and as to my knowledge they all loved him:)

On wed we went to Deception Pass, it's... well here:

This is the view from the top of Goose Rock... it's quite an ambitious hike, but clearly worth it!

It's one of my favorite places in Washington!

It was raining (are you surprised?) on Thursday so I took him up to Tacoma to meet my Nanny. It went very well, she's one of those old lady's who just says whatever she wants no matter what! I have many Nanny stories that are quite entertaining:) She asked Jonny and I both, 2 times each if we had girlfriends back in NY, haha we were like "No Nanny, New York girls are rude" :) lolol (Don't take offense friends, I'm sure you understand:)

Friday was "HAPPY 4th OF JULY!!!" We went up to my Grandpas house in Birch Bay (The last stop on I5 before Canada, I have many o time missed it and had to turn around at that stupid border) The thing that's crazy about BB is that, there's no drop off:

The tide goes out for like 2 miles ... that's my mom, Jonny, Autumn and Hersey out there.

After lunch we went to a friends house on Camino Island to say hi and then on the way home we stopped by the Indian reservation to pick up some illegal fire works. The guy gave us 50% off, said he didn't care cause he had to go to Rehab the next day... Needless to say we were grateful:)

We got a little restless with the put it in a bottle, light and run, the piro in us started to come out:) We lighted multiple ones at once to see what would happen, and then Autumn had the brilliant Idea to hold them as they went off, of course we did it!

Probably not the smartest thing... The first time Jonny did it he held it too low and it went right at the house at the end of the cultisack, we had quite a good laugh at that one! Luckily no one got hurt and nothing burned down:)


Ok so it's 2 in the AM and it's getting really hard to think! We'll have to brake this up in two.

Love you all! Talk to you soon. I'll try to do part 2 tomorrow.
