My friends and I got at the airport at about 10:30pm on June 20th, 2004. Got our rental car and headed on to the hotel! Besides from having 2 hours of sleep, we got up at 6am!! Let me tell ya, we were already hyper!! lol Its scary. Anyway, we got ready and left the hotel at 6:45am. We got lost finding the golf course, so we had to call the other girls that needed a ride. They asked the hotel people. We finally found it! Ember and I dropped off the other 3, then head on back to the hotel to pick up the other 2 - Erica and Melissa. When we got there, saw AJ outside by the hotel shuttle! He didn't see us tho. The 2 girls got in the car and said they saw Brian inside talking on his cell. We went back to the golf course, signed in and received our giftbags. I introduced myself to Brandon. Found Nikki & Kelly from bsbband chat! YAY! Got hugs from them and they introduced me to their friend. I went to get a doughnut and water.

Talked to everyone and hung around. I just happen to be by the door we came in. I was just watching out for the Boys. I just happen to lean back to look and there was brian standing there!! YAY!! Then I called everyone over. There was the rest of the group!! Kevin, AJ, Brian's dad. We started taking pics. This one photographer was taking pics of us! Even our nametags. Anyway, we watched them talk to ppl,etc.

Brandon called us over for a lil meeting. Told us the plans and stuff. Had to sign some paper that we agree that we wont sue Brian if we get hit by his golf ball,etc. Then he told us we could put our giftbags in the car so we wont have to carry it all. He also said that we could hang around after our gallery walk to catch with everyone else. YAY! We went to put our bags away and headed back in. The Boys were running late us usual - "BSB time" - so while we're waiting, we bought raffle tickets for winning the free golf glove. I bought 10 which was $10 total, but that goes to the charity! I didn't win tho lol Darn!! Kevin came over to the food and strangely, asked if he could get some. We are all like, 'sure'!! We were laughing about it too - I think he said something else too.

YAY! It was time to start! Each of the guys had their own cart. We follow these 2 people with "Quiet" and "Stop" signs. The game begins! Brian was with Johnny, AJ was riding with his new GF, Katie, Kevin with some guy. Harold was playing with someone but I think he was driving the cart himself. When we 1st stopped, I was talking to Nikki and I just happen to look in front of me. Brian was right there! I was like starstruck then lol I said to Nikki 'Wow I can't believe he's right there and he's so cute in person"!! LOL That was some moment that I've been waiting for. Started taking pics,etc. Brian was being funny so he was about to distract Kevin by hitting his golf club on his butt, and after Brian walked away, Kevin was getting him back! lol We all laughed for that. Oh and Brian even did some cute funny dance! Brian was wearing a dark blue/white striped polo shirt, with khakis and golf shoes - of course. lol Kevin was wearing these low length capris and a dark blue shirt. He wore a hat as well. AJ wore a hat too, with a pink polo shirt and really funky pants lol.

It was partly cloudy for awhile and it wasn't even hot yet. AJ was playing around with his golf club and swinging it. He made it flew backwards lol The boys kept saying how sore they were. Found out they were practicing the day before! I think during the 2nd tee, AJ was signing autographs and everyone else was waiting on him because his cart was in the way. Brian was like, "Hurry up, Alexandra"! LOL AJ was like, "I'm busy here!" It was funny. I'm glad they were being funny for us lol Gosh I missed those boys!!! Then they started giving out the golf gloves that ppl has bought before Friday and took pictures with the fans. I wish I had bought one but I didn't have extra $150 with me. Shay got hers during the 6th hole! Anyway, we had to watch where we were going or we'd get run over!! LOL Brian would get on his cart and says 'Gotta go'! with "The Call" voice lol Sometimes he would add BSB after it. By the 2nd or 3rd hole, the players got together so everyone can get a pic of them!

A few holes ahead, I was just walking with everyone and I didn't know there were more carts coming my way, so I just happen to look behind me and AJ was about to run me over!! He said something but I forgot what he said!! (I need help remembering that - Ember, do you remember? lol) It was funny tho! He kept getting in my way tho. lol I was trying to get up to Brian so I can get his autograph, but either he was busy playing and watching everyone else, or he'd be signing for someone else. I was kinda shy lol I called Jen to say hi and that I wasn't able to get Brian to get on the phone, since it was kinda being rushed. So she heard Brian in the background anyway!! So after that, I was standing by Brian's golf cart and waiting for him so I can get his autograph. He was standing by his cart too, I was just watching him. He saw me and saw my stuff in my hand. Right before he was about to play, he gave me a cute look and said he'll get to me in a minute. Just that look his eyes. I didn't even ask!! He just saw the look in my eyes lol *sigh* I had to ask my friend if he was talking to me for sure lol Wow. Ok then the next spot, Shay went to do her mission. It was so funny!! He was like 'ok' and looked down at his, ya know. LOL!

Then he asked her how to spell it. lol I then went up to him to get his autograph. I told him it was nice to finally meet you. Either he said thanks and laughed or just smiled. I'm blanked out on that one. lol

Then I asked if I could get a pic with him. He said 'sure!" Hehe. He had to go catch up with everyone else. I was going to go to AJ but this guy kept telling us to go so AJ can go. That was when Shay was doing her mission. I didnt' think quick enough so I can get pictures of that lol I went to get a free drink. Oh before I called Jen, Brian was getting on his cell and I think he was calling Leighanne. Soon after, I heard they were on their way! Even one of the guys was talking to Howie! Aw.

Just a few tees or hits later, no one was around Brian again so I went up to him to give him a Father's Day card from me. I was like, "I forgot to give you this. It's a Father's Day card." He took it and opened it up! I didn't expect him to read it asap! Aww! So I got a pic of him reading it. So cute. He said "Thanks. I appreciate it." I said "You're Welcome" and asked him if I can have a hug. We hugged and I rubbed my hand on his back. THUD lol Thanks to Shay for getting it on tape!! *hugs* Shay was by me and she was using her video camera. Brian saw her and was like "You filming me?" Then she asked if he would do his Donald Duck impersonation. He would be a tease by standing there and making us wait!! lol Finally he did it! He did "Oh boy!" Hehe. I wish I was quick enough to get that on my video camera but I didn't. I wish I wasn't too quiet around him!! lol Anyway, Shay kept getting more pics with Brian lol He kept teasing her about it. She got all of his funny smile in her pics! I did take some of them w/ my camera and Brian is looking at me! YAY lol Finally got to talk to AJ - I go up to him and told him if he remembers Tim Berkebile. He does, of course lol I told him that I'm friends w/ him and that he says hello. He said "Really?" (I think). Then I said that I just talked to him yesterday (Sunday). He said "I haven't talked to him in awhile." As he was walking to the green so he can play, I go " You should call him." And he answered. "I'll give him a ring now that I've found my phone" lol I just laughed. After AJ played, I took the pic of Shay and AJ on her camera. Kevin almost ran me over too!! lol OK I was standing thinking he was going forward, but he was going backwards! I was like OK lol He goes "Sorry" and I said Sorry too. He was all smiley about it. hehe. Right after that, Brian was talking to Shay about something and she told him that she asked if she could hop on to his cart lol I dont know what he said back but as he was driving away, I just playfully chasing him. Brian heard me running and he stopped lol He turned and smiled, saying something like "Ya girls don't wanna get hurt now do ya?" while he laughed and smiled. That was funny. Shay and I wished she got that on tape!!!

It was towards the end then :( Someone told the boys to park their carts so they can get the fans that hasn't gotten their autographs. So I went up to AJ to have him sign the rest of my B&B. I told him to sign this one side w/ his pics since Howie's autograph is on the other side. Then I got an autograph for my friend. The ONLY autograph that I can get for her! :( She's ok about it tho! Anyway, then I got a pic w/ him! I was trying to catch Kevin but he has left to start with the next hole already! Hmph. So then I found Brian again and he was getting a pic w/ Shay, with his famous smile. I decided I wanted one too and I told him to do it too. He never did lol Anyway, we were both trying to get someone's attention so they can take the pic for us and I wrapped my arms around him. Then he had to go. I said Thanks. We were all kinda getting pushed away so Group 2 can go. We got back to where we were before and I took Erica and Melissa to the hotel so they can check out. We came back about 15 minutes later. I was waiting for them by the car, but then I was looking for everyone. I saw my friend Nikki standing the sun, and realized everyone else was out there too. I finally started walking up there and there was Leighanne, Jackie and Baylee! I got there kinda too late! Argh!! lol So I ran to get my camera and my Leighanne picture that I wanted her to sign. I got up to Leighanne and she was just about to get on the cart to join Brian! I said hi to Leighanne and told her who I was. She remembered me through emails! So she said hi back and gave me a hug. Aw. So then I asked if she would sign. She asked if I would wait till she gets back. I was like sure! After that, I held Baylee's hand to say hi. Aw he was SOOOO cute!!!

We had to move to another set of tables so the golf course ppl can set up lunch for the golfers, etc. So we just sat around, relaxed and talked and laughed about what has happened. A lot of group 1 has left. There were only about 10 of us. I talked to Nikki and Kelly for awhile, they were leaving so we got a picture together. Said our byes. We just looked at each other's picutures. That was fun. I got a picture with Brandon and Shay. Just goofing off lol Brandon was nice, but quiet!!! lol Anyway, I think we only waited for like 2 hours till the next group and boys finally came back! I saw Leighanne driving a cart and Jackie was holding a sleeping Baylee. They went inside. Then Leighanne came up to the tent with the Boys,etc. They were thanking us for coming and supporting,etc. Then they started the auction of Brian's 1st tour jacket, he said it was from 1997. It was orange too. I dont even remember seeing that!! lol Probably one of the overseas tours. Brian had fun doing the bidding voice and etc. I got it on tape lol AJ was like trying to buy it from him! lol Jumping up and down behind him, being crazy. Leighanne was standing by them too and her and AJ were being funny to each other. lol Joking around and making faces. They kept looking at the ground and I'm not sure who was down there, cause we were in the back. After that auction was over, I saw Shay talking to Leighanne so I went over there. She remembered that she had to sign my pic. I gave her an early bday card. She loved that! She mentioned to us that she was having a hard time hearing today and she doesn't know why. Aw. Shay mentioned that she's the same way and pointed to her ears. Leighanne said that "We'll you have a good excuse and I don't!" And I told her that I have them too and pointed to my ears. "You have a good excuse too! I should hang out with you guys more!" lol Aw. Then I had her sign this cute B&W pic of her that I've printed off the net. Either her or some guy saw the pic and they asked 'Who's that beautiful woman?" She was talking about how beautiful she looked before she had Baylee. I was like "You still do"! She said thanks. I had her sign it to 'Gretch' and she was making sure if she was spelling it right. I was like "Yep!" and smiled. She smiled back. After that, we finally got a picture together! I just knew we were going to be close together lol She was cute, cause she was wearing a shirt like Brian's! I told her Thanks and that it was nice to finally meet you. She said Thanks and you too (I'm blank on that one too but I know she responded!) Then she was starting to get more ppl coming to her. Gr. So then I found Kevin, finally and gave him an anniversary card from me and told him if he remembered me from Nick's concert back in Dec 2002. I think he did. So we got a quick picture. This one girl took it for us but she was shaking and didn't get the pic! Ack! lol So I had to go after Kevin to let him know about that and said I hope he doesn't mind. He didnt mind. Whew. So we got another pic and I told him thank you. He was like Thank you too and smiled. Aww.

Then I started taking more pics of Leighanne, AJ, Brian, just to finish my camera lol plus my friends talking to whoever. I wanted to talk to Leighanne but she was being bugged still! Gr. I saw Harold and Baylee so I went up to them and took a pic of them. Then Ember took a pic of me w/ them. So cute!! Then I ran into Jackie! I asked if she could get a pic with me. She happily said sure! She's shorter than me!! That was weird lol Then I said it was nice meeting her and that she has a beautiful family. She was like, "That's so sweet"! hehe. Took more pics, even a short video of Leighanne. I then saw these B&W photos of Leighanne and I got the chance to ask her about them. She only had a few and already ran out :( So she told me to go thru the club/Brandon to get one. Just when she said that, Brandon came over to her for something and she pointed at me. I think she was telling him about the photo I wanted. We'll have to see!! lol She went over to Brian and before she did that, I told her thanks again and that I'll email her later. I think she said Ok. She was kinda busy anyway. So we were just standing around, watching everyone. Took more pics then. Brandon was kicking us out so my friends came and got me. So I went to get my stuff, told Brandon thanks for everything and took one last picture of Leighanne :( I told Brian thanks as we were walking by him but I'm sure he didn't hear anyway lol So then we were walking down this sidewalk and saw AJ and Katie standing in the shade. We all said Thanks, bye and waved. He did the same! I was walking with Ember in the back and I kept looking back like 2-3 times and he was watching us!! lol Then we got in the car and they were wanting me to honk at him when we're leaving. I did that and he waved again!! lol Ember watched AJ and she said that AJ was watching us drive off!! lol Kick ass man lol I was kinda surprised too!! hehe

I thought we were wanting to go back to the hotel, I didn't hear right that they all wanted to and I also thought they were getting hungry and wanted food. Oh well. We already checked out. We just went to Taco Bell and to the new hotel to relax. At the same time, I didn't want to bug them again at the hotel. But what happened was great! There were a few things that I wished that I had said but oh well. I wish (we) could've talked to Leighanne some more but like I said, people were always around her. GR. I mean Hello?? This was my FIRST time meeting Leighanne and have been waiting for FIVE years for that moment to happen!! So hopefully there'll be a next time that I'll meet her again and then I'll talk to her some more! That just makes us mad a lil. I just wish everyone would respect everyone else and give the new fans a chance!!

All in all, I'm REALLY glad I went to the event!! I'm SO happy that I finally met Brian, AJ, Leighanne, Baylee, and Brian's parents! And of course, meeting Kevin again!! It was worth the short trip! I'll definitely go to another HHC event!! I know it's going to feel different seeing these 3 guys again, even in concert or on tv, in the future, cause we all got to see them upclose and personal!! :)
