I Suck At Hannah Montana

tonight was the big night...

this weekend, karen and i babysat my niece (kaleigh) and nephew (pj) while my favorite sister-in-law (janine) and brother-in-law (pj) had a little getaway in new orleans with my friend (jen) and her brothers (bill and dan).

tonight, however, was the much anticipated night of the weekend. tonight... was the hannah montana / miley cyrus best of both worlds concert in 3-d! apparently, janine and pj had gotten the 3-d glasses ahead of time at the evil empire known as wal-mart. so, all of us were prepared for the concert. too bad i suck at hannah montana.

both pj and kaleigh seemed very excited for the concert. they kept asking when the concert would start (after having to watch a marathon of hannah montana episodes on the disney channel). disney sure knows how to advertise and promote its brand.

anyway, as we got ready for the concert, we encountered a little snafu. the 3-d glasses did not fit kaleigh's noggin. apparently, the glasses were too big. so in a macgyver sort of way, karen rigged up a strap to hold the glasses in place for kaleigh. crisis avoided. (of course, the glasses kept falling off kaleigh's head because she kept moving her head everywhere...) the glasses were a little too big for pj as well, but he didn't move as much so they stayed on his head.

(pictured below is pj, with the 3-d glasss, watching the concert.)


needless to say, we made popcorn and enjoyed the concert. surprisingly... the concert was not that bad. hannah montana sang a few songs. the jonas brothers sang a couple of songs while hannah montana changed into miley cyrus. and then miley cyrus sang a few more songs. bubble gum pop never sounded so good. throw in a few behind-the-scenes clips...

pj absolutely loved the concert. the 3-d portion made the concert because he was amazed at how hannah montana was coming out of the tv, how the guitar came out of the tv, how the confetti came out of the tv... basically how everything came out of the tv. and i must say, the 3-d gimmick did make the concert pretty entertaining. the concert was well done.

now i'm not saying i'm a big hannah montana fan or anything...
