SUGARLAND!!!!

Tuesday night;
I called doubleagentgirl @ home while I was @ work. Just as we were about to get off the phone, DAG says " oh by the way my dad entered me into a contest to win sugarland tix to a privet concert for 2morrow!" WHAT? REALLY? NICE!

"Yeah" says DAG so keep ur fingers crossed & b prepared to come up to London early! in the morning & NOT! go to work tomorrow.

"OK! Of coarse! I will b up in a heart beet!"
So when I got off the ph I said to my co worker Nicki. "Keep ur fingers crossed for me so that I can go see my FAVORITE group tomorrow!"

Wednesday morning;
Sometime between 8 & 8:30am my house ph rings & I know just who it is
But just my luck my ph wont turn on. & then my cell phone rings & that thing is a piece of CRAP!

So then I call DAG back on her cell.

"GET UP HERE!!!! WERE GOING TO SUGARLAND!!!! I WON! bus leave @ 4pm!"

I Tink! was speechless! I didn't know what to say I was SOOO excited! I was finally going to see Jennifer Nettles & Kristian Bush!

So I flew in the shower. Did my hair. Got gas & was on my way up to London by 9:15am. I think it was my fastest trip yet! LOL The whole time thinking about what shirt I would wear! LOL

Finally in London around 11am. Walked in doubleagentgirl's apartment & said "WE ARE GOING TO SUGARLAND, I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!! IM SOOO EXCITED!" Her answer " I told you one way or another we would see them!"DAG has been telling me for about a year now that we would get to see Sugarland together, one day! & I didn't believe her! SHE WAS RIGHT!

So after deciding on a shirt. Getting Starbucks & telling the drive thru girl about all the excitement even if she wouldn't believe us! DAG & I went & wasted some more time @ White Oaks Mall. B4 we had to catch the bus with the other 46 ppl going to see SUGARLAND!!

I don't even want to talk about the bus ride....ppl SUCK The ppl behind us were SO loud! & didn't think I was old enuf to get into a 19+ event! After our first stop DAG & I moved seats!

"There it is the Orange Lounge!" "YES! Were here!"
When we got off the bus we had to wait in line for about 10 min b4 we could get in....DAG & I were both! asked for id b4 we were let in! So once in we filled up the stars, to the super cute theater. Got a drink. & found a spot! Right beside a cute boy named Grayden, who offered to take a pic of the agent & I!

I couldn't believe that in 30min I would see Sugarland !!!When all of a sudden, out come Amanda Wilkinson How exciting I didn't know that she was going to b the host for the event? But it was a GREAT surprise! I have been a fan of the Wilkinson's since the beginning of there career. Amanda even sang a bit to by some time for Surgarland! & then it was time!!!

Out came Jennifer & Kristian. "OMG!!!! THERE THEY ARE! I THINK I'M GOING TO FAINT!" I was crying & shaking!

Jennifer's voice was a little? gone! But when she sang she sounded GREAT! I'm not sure that I could tell you all the songs that Sugarland sang or the questions that they were asked during the Q & A! Because I was mesmerized & in aw that Sugarland was b4 me! Seeing them had meant a lot to me for a long time, there songs have been there for me thru some tough times! ...I there I was @ a Sugarland concert with my best friend! Even as I write this now I am brought to tears!

After the Q & A. Jennifer & Kristian came off the stage to shake hands. DAG said to me " well go take ur CD up there!" I was like "no they wont sign it!" But DAG talked me into it! & good thing she did AS I pushed my way thru all the ppl...saying " Sorry I JUST LITTLE! Can I Just get up their 4 a min? I just wanna c!" I made my way to the front of the crowd! Where Jennifer Nettles SIGNED MY CD!!!! YEAH!!!! It was AWESOME!!!! THANKS DAG 4 pushing me! lol I was soo happy!

I remember hearing doubleagentgirls voice saying "just enjoy the moment!" BUT I'M NOT SURE THAT DAG REALLY KNOWS JUST HOW MUCH THAT MOMENT MEANT TO ME!!!! Watching & listening Sugarland perform, everything that has happened over the last 4 years just came over me & filled me up!

I am soo VERY GREATFULL 4 DAG who took me with her to see Sugarland . She has fulfilled a dream of this little pixie's & I'm not even sure that Aaron Pritchett was enuf to pay her back!

Luv you bunches DAG! THANK so much!



Ciao!!

My Special Day

Hey all! DAG

So September has always been an emotional month for this little pixie. When I was little it was because I had to go back to school. I hated school! September is also the month my parents got married 35 years ago . And it is also the month of my fathers birthday.

September is also the month in which I became a member of my family.

I Tinkerbell, am adopted!

On May 29 I was born to teenage parents. Who were too young to take care of themselves let a lone a little baby like me. A little baby who was born 4 months yearly, and with a fare amount of medical problems. I can see how it would b overwhelming
After spending some time @ Mc Master hospital, I was put in2 a foster home.

Until it happened.

On September 14th I was adopted by my parents. I was there first child. Two years latter I became a big sister. When my little sister was adopted to.
As long as I can remember September 14th has been refereed to as my "special day." I guess its like another birthday. Growing up we always got cards & presents on our "special days".
It has always been a big deal. But I think my favourite thing about my special day when I was growing up was that we always went to the Avondale Dairy Bar for Ice Cream. YUMMY

Although the 14th is filled with lots of GREAT! memories. It is often filled with sadness.
Sometimes I feel like I don't belong in the family I am in. I always wounder what life would of been like had my biological parents kept me. Who would I be? Where would I live? Would I have any siblings? Would DoubleAgentGirl still b my best friend? Would I have ever met Mr. Wilcox And known What true love is?
Do my biological parents ever think about me or wonder where I am and how I'm doing? Have they ever tried to find me? Do they wish I would try & find them? Was it hard 4 them? Om my birthday do I cross there mind? or am I just forgotten?

Should I try to find my biological parents? What would I get out of that? Rejection? Sadness? Hurt? Pain? Death? Love? A family that wants me back? or A family that just wants me to go away?

Where do I belong? Mr.Wilcox always made me feel like i was were I was suppose to b. But now I'm really not to sure! Will finding some ppl I don't even know me make me feel better about myself? NO! Will learning me medical history make me feel better about myself? Maybe!

I am sooo VERY GRATEFUL for the life that I have been given! I love my family! And that's all I really need, LOVE!!

I just little!!... Grape & Wine, 3 Days Grace

So that night when Mr. Wilcox came over 2 the agents house....Tink invited him 2 go to a concert with her on November 26 Paul Brandt ....He said yes and Tink couldn't of been happier!
Latter that night when Mr. Wilcox left DoubleAgentGirl's house, she offered a GREAT! suggestion to Tinkerbell. Why? don't we invite Mr. Wilcox to come c 3 days grace with us Friday? OK! Answered Tink....as her heart fluttered!

Tink knew that this handsome man was the one for her!

So as soon as Mr. Wilcox left, the agent called him to see if he wanted to go to the concert that Friday..He said YES! So the next day Tink went & picked him up a ticket....She was sooo excited!
Tink couldn't believe that, that handsome man she had met just a couple of weeks earlier and couldn't stop thinking about was going 2 hang out with her again!

So that Friday DoubleAgentGirl and Tink got ready for 3 days grace @ the agents house. Both excited for different reasons! Mr.Wilcox was a perfect gentleman that night. Opening doors for Tink and protecting her from all the creepers @ the Grape & Wine concert. Both in line and inside.

Those were the good old days!...when everyone was happy

After that night the agent, Mr. Wilcox, and Tink hung out alot...Mr. Wilcox would even come with the girls when they would go do school projects. They had some GREAT times 2gether. And even went to a local food festival together. There were always laughs to be had!

And soon it was time for the wedding of the couple, who's stag & doe Tink had met Mr. Handsome at. So she asked him if he would like to go with her and he sad YES!

Tink agonized for days on what to wear to the wedding. Until finally it was time to go & pick up Mr. Handsome. Tinks hands were sweating. She was soo nervous that she drove by his house twice and? got lost. even thou he lived around the corner from the agent
But once this little pixie found her way she had a GREAT night. Although Tink & Mr. Handsome didnt dance that night because Tink has no rhythm & was still very shy....Mr.Wilcox asked Tink out on there first official date that night....And of coarse she said YES!!!

Till next time

School!

So the first day of school has come & gone. And I wish that I did not miss it yet again! :(
For the past 2 Septembers I have not been in school....but lets go back.

Tinkerbell met her best friend DoubleAgentGirl in school, it is also when she met her little pals thing one & thing two....School was never Tinkerbell's "thing", but she would go "sometimes" just so she could see the agent...But one day right b4 the agents 25 birthday EVERYTHING changed!!!

Tink went with DoubleAgentGirl & her then boyfriend to a Stag & doe...and that is when the pixie dust begain to fly! Tink had 2 step out for a little bit 2 plan a GREAT! surprise fitting for the agents b-day....But when she returned...There he was! the love of tinks life...He was standing with the agent when she walked up. So tall & handsome! The 2 talked back & forth for a couple of hours, & then it happened! He had 2 leave! Tink invited the man to the agents surprise bash, but he never came! And that was it tink thought!

It wasn't till 2 weeks latter (in September) when tink & the agent were hanging out that the handsome man was mentioned again. That night the agent invited him over and the three hung out. And that was the beginning of the GREATEST years of tinks life!

Tink & the agent were still in school but didn't have as many classes together as b4. So more and more tink stoped going 2 class. She hung out with the handsome man now known as Mr. Wilcox. Tink would do anything for this man ANYTHING! When he would call tink would go flying. So whenever he wanted to go for coffee or needed something school was put on the back burner. And tink was ok with that since school was so hard for her anyway.

But now looking back tink wishes she was still in school. And would like to wish all of her little friends who are going back to school or who are just starting school for the first time a GREAT year!

Till next time
Ciao!!
