The Regular Guys!

Yesterday Blais called and asked if I could go with him to do a radio show with him in the morning...and of course I could! So this morning we met up at FLiP at 7:45am and I got the things together to make our Bacon Chocolate Milkshake with Whipped Maple Foam and then we got on the road. We got to Rock 100.5 just before 9am, ate our Chick-fil-A in the car and then went inside.
When we got off the elevator, there was a group of teenage girls waiting in the lobby. It kind of took us off guard because we weren't expecting it! Then a lady that was with them said, hey, that's the guy from Top Chef! And all the girls started their high pitched squeals of excitement and started taking pictures of him. I went over to the window to see where we needed to go and when I turned around, the girls had surrounded him! There was a group picture taken and then we were off!
Once we got inside, we went at hung out in one of the producer's office for a few minutes. Then they came and got us so we could go in there with the Regular Guys and get set up.

Blais on the mic with the Regular Guys My little set up in the corner - Bacon Chocolate Milkshake, Nitrogen and Whipped Maple The guys loved the shakes...Southside Steve didn't put his down until it was gone! On Air Me, Southside Steve, Tim Andrews, Larry Wachs, Eric VonHaessler and Blais Eric VonHaessler, Southside Steve, Blais and Larry

A couple video clips I took

Here is a part of the radio show! The first clip is a edited version that Southside Steve put up on youtube and the second clip is the last 5 or so minutes of our time there...for some reason they haven't posted the first portion of the segment...

Happy Father's Day

Yesterday when I was driving home from work, my brother and I had a "twin" moment! He and I both texted each other at the same time asking what the other was doing on Sunday...which happened to be Father's Day. Somehow I happened to have today off, so we set up plans to go to lunch together with dad.
We ended up going to a Mexican restaurant. When we sat down, they brought us chips and salsa. Rylan called it "sauce" and said he wants some on his chip. So we dipped it and just put a tiny bit on the chip for him to eat...and he liked it! So we did it again and again each time he asked! Then when we weren't looking, he had pulled the bowl closer to him and had put a big amount of salsa on his chip and ate it. By the time I realized he had done it, he had probably taken a few bites like that...then he realized his mouth was on fire! I couldn't grab my camera fast enough...but I got this picture of him trying to scrape his tongue clean! It was too cute! Bless his heart...his eyes were watering and his face had turned a little red!

I did get a video of him trying to cool his tongue off by eating fruit!

Miss Emalyn standing up and doing a little dance

Rylan telling Dustin that he wants some peanuts for eating so good, when Dustin says where are you going to get peanuts from he says they are in my bag! TOO FUNNY! Watch the look on all there faces as they turn to look at me!

Me and my little man Me, Rylan and Papa Rylan took these pictures of Dustin, Erin and Emalyn :) Miss Emalyn and Erin This was cute...Rylan digs through my bag everytime I am with him and this time he found my hat...so I put it on him! Too cute! Rylan and Papa listening to my mp3 player Since it was Father's Day, I got a few pictures of Dustin and the babies!

Miss Emalyn playing in the floor

251 Pictures Later...

I was babysitting my little munchkins tonight and between me and Rylan, I ended up with 251 pictures and some cute videos!!!

Emalyn just cracks up with a precious giggle when she knows she is getting something to eat! Just listen to this sweet little girl!

This time Rylan joined in and they were just yapping!

Hanging out with Emalyn after eating :) I should have taken her bib off first...oh well!

Some cute pictures of my little man and sweet baby girl :)

Emalyn and her Papa Rylan got a picture of me taking a picture of him

Rylan on the phone... ...with himself and Dustin :)

When Dustin and Erin got home, we sat around and talked for a little bit. Rylan had my phone and accidentaly called Dustin on his, so Dustin had a little fun and kept talking to him. Rylan didn't realize that it was Dustin...it was so funny! Then Dustin put him on speaker phone and Rylan could hear himself but still didn't know what he was hearing! He would repeat himself and ask who is that! Too cute!

Me + My Camera + Mattox Munchkins = FUN!

I went to see Dustin, Erin, Rylan and Emalyn today! Emalyn was just too adorable, so I decided to get my camera out for a little fun before we went to lunch! :)

We went to a Japanese place for lunch and Rylan just ate everything we gave him! Here he is cheesin real big for me :)

Rylan being silly!

In the van, he sang Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star for me...too cute! Just look at his face!

Me and my little man
Dustin fell asleep before I left and I took this of him! :) hehehe

Riley's 1st Birthday

Today I had the privilege, along with Justin, to cook food for Blais's daughter Riley Maddox's 1st birthday party! Justin and I had been prepping for the last 2 days to get all the ingredients together. This morning we met up at FLiP at 7:30am and finished up some last minute things and then headed over to Blais's house around 9'ish. He had reserved a pavilion at Candler Park which is just around the corner from his house.

We got to the park and started setting up right away! We got the grills started and Nicole and Alexis started decorating!

NKOTB

At the last minute, yesterday, I bought 2 tickets for New Kids on the Block concert for tonight! My friend Kelly had said she wanted to go, so we decided to do it! She met me at FLiP and we drove from there. I was so excited because I hadn't had the chance to see them when I was younger, so it was like I was re-living that part of my life over again!
When we got there, Jesse McCartney (this baby) was opening for them and had just went as we got to our seats. I kept saying to Kelly, he is just a baby! But he was good! And the last time I said he is just a baby, he said, "I know what you are thinking Atlanta, I'm 22!" LOL

Me and Kelly

And then it turns out that my friend Ashley was just a few rows behind us in the VIP box, so I got to see her!

Then it was time for the boys to come out! I got a picture of the set before they came out...

Then the big screen was flashing old pictures up from when the guys were younger!

Then it was showing a picture of them now and it would drop down in to the screen as if they were standing there...then it lifted up and there they were! It was awesome the screaming was soooo loud! Me and Kelly were just laughing...ok...and screaming a little!

And of course I got a ton of pictures from them performing!

Jordan Knight...my absolute favorite!!!

Joey McIntyre

A few video clips...

More pictures...

Donnie Whalberg

Jonathan Knight...the shy one!

Then the surprise...the guys came out in to the crowd to sing! The lights were out and when they came on...there he was! Jordan Knight...right in front of us! I was screaming like a little girl!

Then Jordan joined the other guys...Donnie, Joey, Danny, Jordan and Jonathan

They shot confetti out and there was so much on us I couldn't see for a minute!

Last 2 songs...

Hanging Tough was the last song! Them in their Boston gear!

Another Fun Day at Work

Yes, I have my camera with me all the time, but most days it doesn't get put to use...but when I pull it out, people don't mind me snapping some pictures of them!

Terah, Mindy, and Me

Me and Rachel

This was funny! Terah is our mischevious one at the restaurant and she had done something to Leslie, so Leslie took a lid for a to-go cup and put it on the end of her apron string so when she walked it flapped in the wind.

Here is Duane posing with her not knowing!

Then Tori and Yorrana posed with her and she still didn't know about it!

James David Carter at Smith's Olde Bar

Tonight an old friend of mine was playing at Smith's Olde Bar, so I got some girls together to go out there with me! I haven't seen James in about 9 years so I was excited to see him and to hear him sing live! I have heard his songs on myspace - http://www.myspace.com/jamesdavidcarter and it was so amazing to hear him in person! I think I was smiling from ear to ear the entire time!
