It all started here... Sunday at noon!
Everyone was so excited!
Isabella said "Take my picture too!"
Here is Isabella when we finally arrived in PA - such a cute seasoned traveller
Monday Make a Wish got us tickets to a local amusement park
This balloon ride was one of Isabella's favorites.
This was her first ever ride - my favorite picture!
We had to do the carosel 2 times while we waited for the big kids go on a different ride.
Samantha is still smiling - even after 3 times in a row on the caterpillar rollercoaster.
Make a Wish also told us to hit ColdStone Creamery and get any size ice cream we wanted - on the house.
Tuesday morning, Samantha had an appointment to get her hair done.
When we arrived the stylist was preparing his big rollers - but took one look and put them away. I told him she has only been growing her hair for 6 months. lol
They decided to punk out her hair a bit.
But the spikes up top were too much for Sam...
So he softened it up a bit
Fantastic!!
Samantha loved her new do
Of course the next on the agenda was to shop... Sam needed some accessories
OMG mom - Sam is relaxing before the concert talking with her friend back in Denver
Isabella eating some chocolate - I had to bribe her so she would take a nap
WOW - Jonas Brothers here we come!
Here are the kids all done up
waiting for the next Limo
Dan is so cute!
Chris and Sam - this restaurant was one of the few open before 5. Not only did they open the kitchen a bit early for us - we found out that the Jonas Brothers reserved the whole place the night before!
Isabella and Dan
Sam - finally relaxing a bit - looking beautiful with Izi
This limo was white
Samantha is a bit quiet here - kind of nervous and excited
She is getting ready
This is from the limo in front of the venue - the girls across the street were taking pictures of the limo - it was pretty funny.
Here we are waiting for our tickets and back stage pass
One quick family photo
JB poster
This gal was super nice - she actually took us all on a back stage tour while we were waiting on the brothers
Here is a picture of Nick's guitars
When Samantha walked out on stage - the whole place went crazy
Girls were taking her picture and waving to her - we had to scream to talk
the opening act's drums (The Veronicas)
Sam at the end of the catwalk
Samantha posing with Demi Lovato's guitar
Here is the view of the main stage from the end of the catwalk
This is a view of the seats from the catwalk - our seats were about 5 rows back right on the aisle
Rock on!
Sam is just glowing and she hasn't even met the Jonas Brothers yet!
Here are more of Nick's guitars
Nick's Piano
OMG - Samantha got to touch it!
Next up are Kevin's guitars
Lots and lots of them
Special drinks for the brothers and their body guard
The set list!
This is the room where the boys come to change clothes and rest at different times
Nick is diabetic so the gal is explaining how he is tested and has special food ready and waiting - Sam was amazed that she got to see the boys without their shirts...
OMG - there they are - we met up with them walking to the meet and greet - this is Joe hugging Sam first
Nick was quiet - he is so sensitive
They asked her a lot of questions - told her how pretty she looked and talked with all of us - really nice boys
Joe took it upon himself to hold up Samantha (since she didn't want to have her picture taken with her crutches) thru out all the picture taking
Here is one with Demi Lovato and the boys
Daniel had hoped to meet Demi - he thinks she is hot - but doesn't really care for her music
I don't think her smile can get any bigger
Our Make a Wish crew
Demi performed next
Isabella posing
some more of Demi
Rocking out with the guitar Samantha posed with earlier
just before the Jonas Brothers came out
And it started
Samantha stood the whole concert with Daniel at her side
Joe
Isabella watched the whole concert - sang along and would not let me put her down
Kevin spinning
more of Joe
Finally Nick (Samantha's favorite) made it down to us.
If only we were a bit closer
Demi came out to sing her song from 'Camp Rock' with the boys
This is Nick's Diabetes Song - singing about how he deals with the ups and downs - one of Sam's favorites - note the piano :)
And what is all the white stuff?
Joe has a big hose and covers the audience with soap suds
Everyone was covered
Isabella did worry to much
Neither did Sam
Quite a show - with pyro technics as well
Big Rob helping out on 'Burnin Up'
Wow - is it really over?
everyone is happy
Isabella still awake and very happy
