Motown Philly...Back Again!

Alright, I just gotta start out by saying- Boyz II Men was AWESOME! It was a rocky road, but we made it!


It was free to see the concert, you just had to go pick up seating tickets. Welp, I'm an idiot. I didn't realize that people had waited in line for 2 hours in the morning to get their tickets at 10am. When we rolled into the fair in the afternoon, I was DEVASTED when I saw the "Boyz II Men Sold Out" sign. Not gonna lie, I teared up, got mad, and was ready to leave the fair. Josh knew how important this was to me, so he said that we could try and find some on KSL and see if people were selling them.


We were looking and looking, and then we saw Spencer King- Comedian Extraordinaire! And he said, "Oh, didn't your dad have some at his 101.5 The Eagle booth the other day?" DUH! I forget that I have major connections when it comes to the concert world.


To top it off, my phone spontaneously died, and would not wake up. I couldn't get the battery out to restart it. I can see why T-Mobile no longer carries the Motorola Rokr. =) I had to rely on Josh's phone to get in touch with my friend Hollz to break the HORRIBLE news and get a hold of my dad.


Well, my dad is my hero! Especially when it comes to Boyz II Men... =) He hooked us up with his radio peeps, and I was so happy/relieved/ecstatic.


While waiting for the big event, we enjoyed fried zucchini, the swirly ice cream, and my fave hawaiian food. We also saw this hilarious hypnotist, and now I get why people love that stuff. He was great... but probably too expensive for my Davis County Fair. =)


And then, it came... 14th row... dreams coming true... jams... magic.

I have to say, I was super sad that Hollz was not there, Boyz II Men is something that we really shared and loved together. I ALWAYS think of her whenever I hear one of their songs, and especially when I hear "Water Runs Dry." We totally sang it at an assembly in elementary school! And so I vow that before we die we will go to a Boyz II Men concert together, as god is my witness! And a Britney concert... and a Prince concert. =D

Well, my Boyz came out in true form. They hit it up with "MotownPhilly," they sang some slow jams, and then they suprised me with some MOTOWN HITS! I guess they have a Motown-Hitsville album. Well it was awesome, and it really kept the party going. They even did those slick dance moves like the Temptations. It was FABULOUS!

During "I'll Make Love To You" they threw red roses to the audience, and yes I ran up to the front for my chance. But let's be honest, I'm too short for that stuff, and they don't throw very far. Haha!

They even sang one of my fave songs (which I didn't think they would) "Doin Just Fine." Oh it was soooooooo good. After a few more, they left. But we didn't! We kept clapping and screaming, and then Wanya came back on and gave us some love and a little acapella "Yesterday" and then they all came back on and did the FULL song of "MotownPhilly." It was AMAZING! I loved every minute of it! I've never clapped so much at a concert in my life. I had a HUGE smile on my face as we left the grandstands.

They were so grateful and kind and fun and they still sound awesome together. Next year is their 20th anniversary, and they are going to try and get Michael back with them to do another album. HOLLA! I'm all for it!

What a fun day at the fair with Josh. We even had a fried snickers. Dreams reall do come true... ;)

The Classics

I just enjoyed one of my favorite meals: A tuna melt and butternut squash soup! My love for tuna melts goes waaaay back (holla at my favorite cousing Emily) and my love affair with butternut squash soup started just last year. Pretty much I love anything that has to do with my friends in the squash family, including, but not limited to fried zuccinni (so far Cheesecake Factory has the best), sweet potato fries, pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, & PUMPKIN SPICE HO CHO! Yes, the fall season is upon us and I can't wait! Here is a photo depicting my love for sqaush & twinkly lights:

Another classic in my life: ONE TREE HILL! I know I've already expressed my deep love for this show, but just so you know, the love really runs deep. And I absolutely cannot wait for the season premiere this coming Monday! I LOVE Brooke, but I know that I am going to miss my homies Peyton and Lucas. Oh, Chad Michael Murray.

The 2009 Davis County Fair was, well, CLASSIC! =) After all of the buildup and preparations, the fair was GREAT! And thanks to all my wonderful friends and famiy who came and supported me! I REALLY appreciated it-- even though I looked like a chicken running around with their head cut off. This year was the most successful fair ever, and they want me to be a bigger part of next year's fair. We're already planning some stuff, and all I can say is SHARKS and hopefully hawaiian shirts. =) Here's a little smattering of the fair magic:

<--Holla and Posh: lookin fierce.

Still can't believe I let this happen to me.

I understand why Britney Spears looked a little awkward during the one VMA performance, oh so long ago. ;)

One main source of stress: Davis County's Got Talent! But it went really well and my Dad was a great host. We're doing it again next year!

Another Megan project-- the gameshow! It was called The Big Deal: Take It or Leave It and the crowd really got into it! And don't my briefcases and game board look so great?! I'm pretty proud of this one!

These looks of love are brought to you by Flan & Me. Always a good time with my Flanny Clan!

These are the guys I work with! They are quite entertaining.

And this is my FAVORITE picture from the fair! Thanks to Josh for being a good sport. =)

It's crazy to think that the fair was just a month ago. I'm so glad it went well and I'm glad they like me! This job has been great, and hopefully it will continue to get better so I can actually keep it. =)

We went on a fun VEGAS trip over the weekend! I do enjoy that place and it really does feel like you just let loose when you go down there. I'm okay with that. If you need a kickstart to your night there, just go on the roller coaster at New York New York. I was looney and tons of fun after we went on that.

Overall, it was a magical trip.

We even saw this lady there! The ultimate classic. On that note: HOLLA!
