On our trip to KC, one of my childhood dreams came true - I went to a New Kids on the Block concert! I had heard they were touring awhile ago and at the time I looked it up just to see where they would be just in case. At the time the closest was Oklahoma City but it was on Jaxon's birthday so that was out. It came up again on TV or something so I looked it up again and I saw they had added Kansas City so I tried to find someone to go with me but everyone was already busy so I figured it wasn't mean to be. Then when we decided to go to KC and the weekend that we happened to be going was when the New Kids were there so I had to find a way to go. On the way up to KC on Friday I looked up to see if there was anymore tickets available and there was so I begged my mom to take me and she said yes! So I ordered the tickets and we went on Sunday!
The only problem was that my dad and brother had to get back to the farm and were leaving Sunday morning. We had taken 2 vehicles so we were able to take my mom home on Monday. So Sunday we went over to Lawrence to see my mom's side of the family but I forgot my camera. Afterwards, we came back to get ready for the concert. The next problem was that we only had one vehicle. So either Blake would drop us off and pick us up or we would take the vehicle then he would be stuck in the motel with the kids the whole time. Mom decided to go ahead and get a limo to take us and pick us up which was awesome! It was so nice to be dropped off right there and not have to wait in line to get out. It ended up being cheaper than a taxi anyway.
Taking pictures before we left.

Jaxon wanted the lipstick mark.
Jaxon was not so upset that I was leaving but that I got to ride in a limo.

We made it!
The Package Tour - New Kids on the Block, 98 Degrees, and Boyz II Men.
We had amazing seats! They started out on the stage on the left then they moved to the center stage which was right in front of us. We were in row 3 which I think was better than the floor since we were right there but up a little bit so we could see.
I took a million photos so I'm not going to put them all up on here. I plan on making a photo book of just the concert.
Boyz II Men came out first. They were awesome!
After they moved out to the center stage right across from us.
They handed out roses.
Next came 98 Degrees.

They brought up women to sing to.
Then came New Kids on the Block! They were on for about an hour and a half of awesomeness! Some history, they were really popular when I was in Third Grade. My friends and I even had a New Kids on the Block club. Yeah, we were cool! My favorite was always Jordan. Like most groups their popularity when away and they broke up. Now they are cool again and retro. I've never been one to go to a lot of concerts mainly because around here it is mostly country music and I don't listen to that.
I have a million photos but will try to pick my favs.
Yeah the middle part raised up.
It was awesome! Thanks Mom for taking me!
