Talk

I met the Jonas Brothers on July 25, 2008 in Hershey Pennsylvania. Here is my full story. You may want to read this before you watch the video, or else it might be confusing.

A few months ago I started to put together a pre-party for the concert in Hershey. At first the party was small and not many people signed up. But then things started rolling along. Before I knew it there were over 200 people on the list. So as I sat there and thought up ideas to do at the party, one thing really grabbed my attention and I thought why not make a difference. So instead of making this just any party, all of the girls at Hershey agreed that we should have a fund raiser for the boy’s Change for the Children Foundation. That container in my hand was all the money we raised at the party. I stood there and got to personally tell the boys what we accomplished, and that was an amount just over 1700 dollars. Yes! We raised over 1700 dollars for the Change for the Children Foundation. And I had the absolute honor of telling them that and putting all the boys, including one of their managers, in awe. At first they were all like, no way you’ve got to be kidding, and then I kept explaining and they were just like WOW! But here’s how the actual meet and greet went…

I was nervous in line, because how do you explain to the three most amazing guys in the world that you have 1700 dollars in your hand for them. Not easy! But while in line, Maya came right up. We talked, got pictures, and asked her if we could give the money to the boys. And she said, she’d make sure we got to them personally =) So as the line started moving, we got closer and closer and my heart started beating faster and faster. I was close to the front and Big Rob was standing there and he was so nice! He didn’t yell at anyone or force the line to move faster. Everyone at the meet and greet got to talk to the boys and actually have a conversation with them! Seeing as how there was probably only 200 people MAX in line. People were asking for pictures and he was taking them with them! I was too scared to ask and I regret it. So when I got under that tent, Kevin shook my hand and then I started explaining. The whole time I was explaining Kevin looked at me so compassionately that my heart dropped. Then I looked at Nick and we made eye contact for the longest time. He was so in shock and so proud of what we did. His sincerity blew me away! Like he couldn’t believe it. And Joe, well Joe is just amazing. When I looked over to him, he had this face of interest on him, like he didn’t believe what was going on. It kind of made me giggle, but he was still so appreciative. And when I was in the middle of explaining, Kevin grabbed my hands, and not like a normal handshake, like he had both his hands wrapped around my one hand, and he stared me straight in the eyes and said thank you so much with the most sincere and loving voice you could ever hear! After Kevin did that, he called over one of their managers. I had to reexplain myself to him and he didn’t believe me! He was probably in the most shock out of all of them! It was funny when he did realize what was going on and he was blown away! But then after he took our money, I got to turn around and hug them all. As I was hugging each of them, they smelled so good and it was just amazing! Each one of them said thank you again, in the sincerest voices I’ve ever heard these boys talk in. Nick looked me straight in the eyes, dead serious, and just said, thank you so much. And he was like 1700 dollars!?!? WOW! I almost died. I was still shaking so that didn’t help! And I got down to Joe and he gave me a hug. Ahh, he does have some of the best hugs a guy could have, but honestly, all these boys had amazing hugs and I was blessed enough to have really long ones!!! But then after that, we all got our picture taken. And you know what, I’m honored to say we got Nicholas Jerry Jonas to smile! And Joe looked amazingly happy! And Kevin, oh Kevin, he was trying to smile, but the picture was taken too soon!! LOL =) But you gotta love the boy, regardless =) And the whole time, I wasn’t rushed or anything. Big Rob had an interest in what I was saying, and he didn’t force me along. I had the best ten minutes of my life with them.

There’s more to it, but it wouldn’t fit on here! If you want to know more, message me and I’ll be glad to share =)

Show the boys you care. Just remember, WE DECIDE and WE DONATE. It’s up to all of us to make a difference. Jonas Brothers fans are the best, regardless of what anyone says!
