well. here's how everything went down.

at around 11ish - my friend jessica and i got out of school early on thursday to pack. my father dear picked us up around 2ish. and we arrived in portland at around 4. jessica and i bought ice cream at the cold stone creamary and walked to starbucks to eat it there. than we got lost in downtown portland for a half hour.

at around five - we drove to the civic center and saw a group of people. so my father let us out there. and jessica and i stood there and talked to three girls who were obsessed with chris and ace. and one girl went "OH MY ACE." so it's my new catch phrase. haha.

but anyway. chris and ace came out. took pictures - signed autographs. i got my picture taken with ace. and got two hugs from him :D super excited about that. he gives really good hugs. jessica and i touched chris' sweatshirt. and jessica goes afterwards "OH MY GOD. I TOUCHED CHRIS." and chris heard her - looked at me and smiled and than went "OH MY GOD. YOU TOUCHED ME." haha. he was silly.

elliott and his girlfriend also walked by and waved but didn't stop for any autographs. i think he was out signing before we got there though.

than a security guard walked up close to us. so jessica and i were having a nice conversation with him. we asked where everyone else was and he had a different answer for all of them. i really liked his answer for bucky because he said he had no idea where bucky was and that he was all over town throughout the day. haha.

anyway. at around 6ish - we went inside to find our seats and buy a few things. we had seventh row seats and it was awesome. the concert was awesome. and i'm sure everyone knows how it is by now. elliott and i had a moment during moody's mood for love. hahaha. he just doesn't know it yet.

katharine was really good. and i really liked her dress.

the group songs were silly. they were all laughing and having a lot of fun. kellie and bucky had chicken heads on while elliott had a big mexican hat and chicken feet. haha.

after the show - jessica and i went back out to where the buses were. and paris walked out first. she waved and went straight to the bus. taylor did the same thing. he came out really quickly and noone really knew it was him. haha. mandisa and elliott also came out but didn't sign anything. mandisa came out and she looked so scared. haha. i felt bad.

anyway. i got ace's autograph. i got a "group" hug with chris, jessica, and these three five year olds who were next to me. it was fun. i touched his sweatshirt and it was soft. haha. than somehow jessica was pushed to the way front and i was kind of in the back. but i could still see good because the kids in front of me weren't even taller than my boobs. haha.

bucky, kellie, and lisa came out to sign and take pictures. jessica got a hug from all three. i asked bucky for a hug but he couldn't really reach me because i was behind the little kids. and he smiled and we had a moment. and he knew it because we made eye contact. hahaha. but he handed my poster back to me and i said "thank you." and he smiled realllly cute.

and jessica and i told kellie that we liked her sunglasses. and she was all "oh thank you!" in her cute little accent. haha.

and ace stayed out the longest. he was trying to get to everyone and trying to make everyone happy. haha. he was the sweetest. someone asked if they could have his hat. and he was all "oh i can't give it away. a fan just gave it to me and i have to wear it for her!" and than jessica and i go, "can we have your sweatshirt?" and he looked at us and smiled and laughed. he's cute.

but the last picture i took was of bucky because my camera died. so i didn't get a picture of lisa signing autographs. i got a picture of kellie, chris, ace, and the back of elliott and his girlfriend's heads though. haha.


overalll - it was a super fun day. and i'm so so lucky to have been able to somewhat meet five of the idols.

and if you read all of that than i l o v e you.

and i'll add a few of my pictures soon. they're still adding to my computer.

Loved your recap and pictures. Thanks for sharing. Glad that you had such a good time and that you got to meet some of the Idols.

Ooooh, Chris was touched by you! :D cute

Nice recap and pics. So they do sign autographs after the concert sometimes. Sounds like you had lots of fun.

I LOVED YOUR PICS. YOU DIDN'T LOOK NERVOUS AT ALL WITH ACE. AS A MATTER OF FACT THAT WAS ONE OF MY FAVS. YOU LOOK REALLY GREAT TOGETHER. YOU BOTH HAVE THOSE ROSY CHEEKS. TOO CUTE! :glomp:

Loved your close ups with Ace and Chris and the pic of the group was very good. Thanks! Glad you had a good time.


Gogo

I also love your pictures, they came out great. All those autographs are so nice to have what a keepsake.

:) i'm glad everyone likes the pictures.

soccerma ; it's funny how you say that i have rosy cheeks. everyone at school calls me 'rosy' as a nickname because of it. haha.

I HOPE YOU SHOWED EVERYONE AT SCHOOL THAT PICTURE OF YOU AND ACE. IT REALLY IS A GOOD ONE. :yes:

Thanks for the recap and the pics. :D

I was at the concert - It was amazing.
Elliott & Chris' performance of "Savin me" was AMAZING.

Elliott wasn't too gracious with the fans.
He wouldn't take pics with people, but he'd sign things & give hugs - Which was good enough for me! haha
But him and his gf just don't seem right together.
He seems to make the effort just to hold her hand!
She seems annoyed with him, and he tries to goof with her...but no reaction from her, but an annoyed look.
Something about her, I just don't trust...But that's just my two cents.
Cuz she was at the other end of the brick wall, looking like she's pouting.
And he seemed to rush thru the fans to run back to her
Still gotta love E, though. No season will ever be the same as 5.
And there'll never be another elliott. The concert was amazing.

Here's E's, Ace's & Chris' autographs I got on my purse... -
