| I've been lucky enough to meet many country singers over the years. Either through fan clubs, winning, or through the good old autograph line-it's always been a neat experience. Below are pictures of me and the stars and a little bit about how I met them. |

| Last year I almost met Brad Paisley at Country Jam from bringing in a non-perishible food item. They gave you a ticket and I was 2 numbers off. This year, I was 1 number off! A friend we came with won!! But, she's such a HUGE Alabama fan that she wouldn't leave Randy Owen's show, so she gave me her pass! Dierks was really nice and he told me he was up at Rock Fest to see his friends, Cross Canadian Ragweed! |

| Bomshel signed autograph and met fans after their show at the Black Bear Casino in Minnesota. My friends and I were in line to meet them when Josh Gracin came on stage. So the girls went backstage and said that they would be back. Then their tour manager came and we got to meet them backstage - opposed to standing behind them at a table for a picture. They're great girls and put on an awesome show! |
| My 7th meet and greet with the girls took place after their show. It was so great getting to see them all again especially Kelsi. I brought gifts for all of them and talked with them about what's going on with me and about past meetings. For the picture, I wanted to do something different and all I could think of was to do "thumbs up". It's my favorite meet and greet picture so far with my favorite girls! |

| My 6th meeting with Rascal Flatts was at the Xcel Energy Center. I didn't know if I would get to see the guys at all in 2007 so I was happy to hear that they would be in Minnesota. Of course I had to try for a meet and greet and logged in early and was fast at requesting it. Somehow, I got chosen to meet the guys yet again. I told them that it was my 6th time meeting them and even got 2 pictures with them since Gary had his eyes closed for the first one. :) |

| I got to officially meet Miranda Lambert at Mystic Lake Casino. I had planned for over a year to join her fan club once she came to the area, but alas, she didn't com around here at all in 2007. So when I heard she was coming to MN in early 2008, I bought a ticket and joined her club - and I entered to meet her and got it! She was super nice and super awesome! I decided to ask her if we could do the smokin' guns pose for the picture and she said sure. I was actually really nervous and didn't say a lot to her. But I'm planning on trying to meet her more times this year as she's going to be all over WI & MN! |

| I got to meet Carrie at the Resch Center in Green Bay on one of her stops on her Carnival Ride Tour. I had been in Carrie's fan club since it started, but was never able to enter for a meet and greet to see her. I found out she was coming to Green Bay and got tickets right away. I also signed up for the meet and greet - not getting my hopes up too high since they only picked 10 people per show. Somehow, my name was chosen and I got to meet her! I had so much to say to her, but I put it all in a card. She was super sweet and signed both of the album covers I brought - despite the "1 photo, 1 autograph rule". And boy is she tiny!! |
