When we were teenagers, barely so, we all had crazy, insane crushes on the boys from New Kids on the Block. We were all SURE we were going to marry one or the other, and I was no exception. I was fanatic! I had a New Kids phone, sleeping bag and pillow and pink bedroom walls covered in posters.
So, when the New Kids on the Block - who are actually in their late 30's now! - came to Des Moines last night, there was no way we were missing it!
Cheesy, yes. But we knew that going into it, and it was the best concert ever! They played ALL of our old favorites and some of their new songs (which are just okay), and Mackenzie even touched Joey McIntyre (if you could only have heard her!!!). It was hands down one of the BEST concerts we've ever been to!
Once a New Kids fan, ALWAYS a New Kids fan!!!

15 years ago, but still fanatic as ever!

Dreamy, right?!

I can't TELL YOU how excited we were! We're dorks!

Jonathon, Donnie, Jordan, Joey and Danny

Do it with me: SIGH!

The "Kids" decided to walk down the aisle from the back stage back to the front stage. If Joey looks terrified, he should: Mackenzie tried to maul him!!

AHHH! It's NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK!!!
