Dropping in...

Hey BH Divas!!!
I thought I'd drop in to say that the project I'm working on is STILL underwraps! Be patient. I also had the privledge to go to Jordan's show in New Bedford Saturday night! He was AMAZING!!! A few ladies in front of me about fainted when he violated the mic during "O-Face".. definitely made me consider becoming a JK girl. He also did tell us that he DOES read all of the DMs and tweets we all send him--so even if you don't hear anything back from him; don't get discouraged. He sees you and knows about you!!

This also reminds me of the teams that are forming for the "Batting 4 Betty" event that is taking place. BATTING FOR BETTY Charity Softball benefiting Susan G Komen for the Cure,In Memory of Betty Wood. Event Date OCT 29, Boston,MA  and I also believe that this deadline is this weekend?? Please visit http://www.battingforbetty.com or their Twitter page: @Batting4Betty.

Also, we are still looking for more interest in the hotel block thing.. it's a definite we need to hear from you guys about this. B and I are trying to make the night before just  awesome.. (i couldn't find the right words lol) We wanna work on a surprise for the BHs who are going to attend this pre cruise party--but can't do it until you get ahold of us!!



Did everyone get their cruise confirmations today??? See you in June!!!

Hotel Questions...

So, I'm currently working on the hotel block as you all know.  Unfortunately, I only heard back from two people as to whether or not they would be interested in the room block, so at this point in time I cannot in good conscience give the Hyatt Miami my credit card for guarantee purposes, since, if the block does not fill up, I get stuck paying for all of the rooms.  Ladies, PLEASE COMMENT ON THIS BLOG if you're planning on staying in the room block so I can get a good idea of how many rooms to block off.

Heather and I are working really hard for you to make sure that we can have a pre-party that everyone will enjoy.  I'm just asking for your cooperation in letting us know if you'll be coming!  I promise, commenting with how many rooms you plan to use won't take up a lot of your time, and it'll make my job so much easier!

I love you all dearly, and I want to get this done for you, so help me out!  If you have any questions feel free to ask either of us and we'll be happy to answer them to the best of our ability! 

As always, hugs and kisses and all that fun stuff,

B.

Hottourage Pt 2

Hey BH lovelies.. it's Heather again...

I would've given Brandy pics to load for me-- as my life has been hectic as well (ie: law school essay finals, booking the cruise and a new niece) and I figure I should introduce myself as well.

I'm 27 (eeek that hurts to type or say sometimes)--I guess I can be kinda considered to be a "Baby" Blockhead. I was born the year the guys arrived :) Actually, my mom told me I was a few months old when they did come onto the scene. Having two older sisters, it was apparent I would be a New Kid fan too. I even had a NKOTB onesie--which I still have!! I live in Zanesville, OH--which is about an hour southeast of Columbus; yes I have a crazy southernish accent which everyone LOVES to point out. I am a paralegal and am currently in law school. I have this crazy dream to be an entertainment lawyer and the school ish is enough to make me cry most days!! I am a hardcore Steelers and Yankees fan... haha I know, I know. I love to talk with accents because it seems to bring a smile to everyone's face. (Still working on my Boston one. I have it down.. kinda) I am a Donnie Wahlberg lady-- but have a small crush on Jonathan because of my 5* experience. It was crazy--maybe I'll tell you all about it sometime haha. All in all--I'm a very compassionate person and I have the ability to like everyone.. except the crazy BSCs that keep blowing up my Twitter. Well that's about all.. Check out my pics I've attached :)

This is me, @Hburk02

The girls & I Brother, sister and I


and last but not least, Jordan and this terrible pic of me.


That's about all there is about me. Hope to see you guys soon! Keep watching the blog for updates!!!

Get to know the "Hottourage", more details, and a little photo whoring as well!

Hey kids, Brandy here!  Just wanted to post really quick (I'm sorry I didn't do this sooner, my day has been incredible hectic) so you can get to know a little bit more about me; I'm sure Heather will follow up with some more info on her soon as well!
Well, as you know, I'm Brandy, and I'm the "planner" of the group.  I work in the hotel industry, so I've taken on the task of handling our room block and trying to set up a possible bar crawl depending on the interest that is generated in our little fiesta!  I'm almost 23 (so still considered a baby blockhead) and I've been married for a year and a half to the most wonderful man in the world, who puts up with my obsession with all things 'Berg related.
I'm a midwestern girl, and I'm convinced that you won't find another person on the planet as easy to get along with as I am.  That being said, I'm about as cocky as they come, and when I drink my swagger becomes a stagger and my speech is slightly slurred.  I'm a barrel of fun in a tall brunette package and I can't wait to meet you all for shots, sun, and hopefully swimming at our pre-party!  Just to put a face with the name, here's a couple of photos for your viewing pleasure!
Me and the hubby (I think he drank alot at this point) @NKOTBSB 2011
Me and Robyn, another member of the group.  You'll love her!

Photo whoring in Mexico....sunburnt and crabby!

St. Patty's Day out on the town!

Now, down to the details.  I have a tentative block agreement with Hyatt Regency Miami for June 6.  The rates they're offering us are at $99 for the evening.  Now, the only issue I have with turning in the paperwork and credit card authorization to the hotel is that if for some reason we don't book at least 80% of the 25 rooms I've reserved, guess who gets to foot the bill for the remainder of the costs??  This girl!
So, before I send in the paperwork, I need people to comment on whether or not they will FOR SURE be coming to the pre-party, because I do not want to get stuck spending several hundred dollars because people decided to make other accommodations.  So, please, ladies, let me know ASAP if you will be joining us for our pre-party shenanigans!
If you have any questions, even if it's just something small, please feel free to ask and either Heather or myself will be back to you as soon as we read it!
XoXo,
B.

Intentions

Let's clear some things up- ok?

1. Brandy and I are NOT groupies or seeking attention from the guys.

2. Things we talk about on Twitter to other BHs or the guys are not to be taken seriously.

3. Harmless flirting-BSCs, does not mean we're trying to steal "your man". Child please-it's in your mind.

4. BSCs-- Bat Shit Crazy (zies)

5. If you are a BSC; get a grip and therapy.

6. Our pre-cruise party is a way for all of us BHs to have a fun night together before cruising. We do not benefit from anyone. Just getting to know other BHs.

One that note--- we love you guys xo
