Favorite memory pertaining to a holiday... (Both birthdays)

 My first favorite memory is when my aunt took me to the NKOTBSB concert on July 27. The concert was sold out but we bought tickets in advance when they went on-sale. We had section 14 row U, so we were 20 rows from the stage on the floor. But after Midnight Red and Matthew Morrison finished I snuck up to 5th row so I was so happy! It was my first time seeing the New Kids on the Block and my second time seeing the Backstreet Boys, I saw them in 2000 they were my first concert. At the concert, I took over 263 pictures and my aunt bought my sister, her friend, and me a T-shirt, we ended up getting an extra one because the guy forgot that we had one in the car already and she bought me and my sister posters. At the end of the concert everybody rushed up to the stage, including me, because NKOTB went in between the barricades to hug people and I got to high five Jonathan Knight before he went back onstage.
My second favorite memory is when my grandma and aunt drove me 8 hours to Toronto, Canada just to meet Jordan Knight. On October 16th, we went to see Cover Me Canada, a show sort of like American Idol but with cover bands competing, and after the show we talked to the producer of the show and he said to email him and he will give us VIP tickets to whichever showing we wanted to be in the audience for. So when I got home I emailed him and told him we wanted to go to the October 30th show. He emailed back and told me to bring him some Hotsauce Williams BBQ sauce and my grandma. So on the 30th we drove up there just for the day with the BBQ sauce and my grandma and while waiting in line I gave him the sauce and he came up to us during a break in the show and told me to meet him by the judges table after the show and he will take me backstage to meet Jordan, I was shaking for half the show after he told me! So after the show I went over to the judges table and he took me and a couple other people backstage to meet the judges. I was the first one to meet him that night and he gave me the biggest hug out of all the other people that went back there. I was the youngest one that went back there to meet them. I also got to meet Ron Fair, Deborah Cox, and George Stromboulopogus (Strombo for short) Alex, the producer told all of us we were lucky we got to meet George because he was just a guest judge. After that we had to drive home because I had school in the morning and we got back at around 4:30a.m. but it was definately worth only geeting like an hour and a half of actually sleep.
