Jonas Brothers Concert

Sunday July 13th was concert day for us...................................................

We gave Lauren tickets for the Jonas Brothers concert in Anaheim for her birthday. 3 tickets - mom, Lauren and a friend. Lauren asked her best friend Katie (who is also a Jonas fan though not as obsessed as Lauren). We arrived very early, a few hours, with the hopes of landing some meet & greet passes. Unfortunately none were to be had but the girls still had fun just hanging out. Radio Disney was outside of the venue before the event so they joined in with them for some Cha-cha slide dancing, trivia game, hot potato game and just listening to loud music. They both won little prizes for the trivia and Lauren was the runner up on the hot potato game and won a National Treasure 2 DVD which she gave Katie since we already had it.

We all had a fabulous time, I'm sure they won't forget it for quite a while. It was sooooooooo loud that my ears were still ringing when I laid down in bed. We got home just after midnight and had to be up at 6am since the girls had summer school today. They were troopers, got up, ate and were at school on time.

Here are some pictures: the girls with their poster prior to the event and in front of the tour bus that all the fans sign.

Here they are during the concert where they were standing and dancing the entire time.

This is Lauren's favorite Jonas - Nick, and a picture of all three of them - Nick, Joe & Kevin


So the only negative thing that happened was Friday night while Lauren was dancing to Jonas Brothers music in her room she bumped her bed, tripped, fell landing on her hand in a fist and fractured her right hand. Saturday gave us the doctor visit, x-rays and the orthopedic referral. Sunday we couldn't miss the concert, no way no how, so we went to the concert. Then today, Monday, we had summer school and the orthopedic visit which gave us a fiberglass splint with a re-check for more x-rays in a week and a scare that if the fracture shifts out of place then she could be looking at surgery for pins. We'll make sure to keep the splint in place and I'll help her wash her hair :-). Tomorrow we'll have to talk to the soccer coach and see if she can work on defense since she definitely can't goalie which is what she has been doing.

There is our weekend in a nutshell. Oh yeah, the construction is going well, all the doors are hung, most of the painting is done and we've started on the trim work. The tile should get started this week with a shower pan inspection scheduled for Wednesday.

Thanks for checking in. Night all,
Kim
