Hey everyone! So, here it is, my review from the Wichita concert!!

Juliana and I didn't fall asleep till about 4:30 that morning, and we had to get up at 8:30 to get ready to leave! Bwah! We were a little tired, but we couldn't stop saying "OMG, we see Clay tonight!"

We finally left at around noon, after I had done Juliana's hair, hee hee!

Then, we got in the car, and off we went!!

Doesn't her hair look pretty?? =D

Finally, at about 4, we arrived in Wichita, at the preparty location! We were all excited, since the church was RIGHT across the street. We ran over there to get the customary Team Jorgan Under The Sign picture!

And then we went and got pictures of the buses...

We went back to the preparty, and FINALLY, it was time to head to the venue!!

There's us outside the venue, in front of the buses!! (oh my goodness I look awful here!)

We went in and met Jen (jenbec4360, Jacki (claysgirlroczoregon) and her daughter Amanda (clayaikenbug919) in the lobby before the show and hugged them all, they were all so nice even though I wasn't feeling well, LOL!

We took our seats, 10th row, a little on the left side of center stage, and waited on the concert to begin. He came out singing "O Come O Come Emmanuel", and I thought my heart would explode. LOL. He was wonderful!

I LOVED the Jingle Bells medley! And I loved that he sang "It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year"! I love that song so much, it's one of my favorites. Angela's song, "Who Would Imagine A King", was amazing, although I had never heard it before that night. That woman can sing the phonebook!

When he sang "Merry Christmas With Love", I admit I totally cried. I didn't mean to, it just happened! I got all overwhelmed thinking how lucky I was and...I just got all teary. LOL.

Finally, intermission rolled around, and Juliana and I got up to go say hi to SecretlyLovesClay, who was sitting up in the 2nd row. We had talked a few days before the concert and she asked us to come up and meet her, so we did. She was sitting with LauraQ, and there were 3 empty seats by her!

Juliana and I looked at each other, and then looked back at them.

"Can we sit with you??" We asked, and they said yes!!!! So, me, Juliana, and Jen (jenbec4360!) got to sit in those seats!! We had never been that close before and we were so excited. The second half was AMAZING, especially when we were thisclose to Mr. Aiken.

I loved "O Holy Night", which was what he sang coming back from intermission, but I was in such an Aiken Fog it took me a minute or two to actually recognize it!

Quiana sang "Where Are You Christmas", and Juliana made sure to keep her phone in her lap so her brother (who LOVES Quiana) could get a good listen, and we cheered extra loud for her, in honor of her brother who couldn't be there.

Then! Clay did the "I'll Be Home For Christmas" medley and I thought I was going to cry! I was hoping he'd do that song, and I'm so glad he did. He did such a beautiful job on it and I think everyone loved it.

He relieved us all when, right before DSIAFCD, he said "You've wanted to scream so bad all night, it's okay, you can scream in church!" so we just totally let it all out! LOL!!

The whole time I was sitting there, I just kept staring up at him with this huge smile on my face and I just felt so, so lucky! I really couldn't believe my luck. I was surrounded by all the people I love and care about, and it was all because of Clay, and I felt so happy being in the same room with the people that make me the happiest.

When he left the stage, and we saw him turn around and come back, I grabbed Juliana's arm and squeaked. I actually think I jumped up and down! LOL!! I was just so excited!! We heard the familar notes of "All Is Well" and I couldn't even think straight. My heart was racing and threatening to just come out of my chest!

It...was...amazing!! I didn't even care his voice cracked once during the glory note (and didn't even notice until afterwards), I was just so excited I couldn't stop screaming for him. The second he hit that note, I was on my feet and clapping.

Then, with that....he was gone. I stood there, reeling from what just happened, in the Aiken fog.

Little did I know...there was more fun waiting!!!!!

So, people were staring to leave, and Juliana and I were left, just standing there, dumbstruck. Suddenly, we notice people around us have started to leave, but Jesse is left still at the piano, a mere few feet away. We look at each other...and get the same idea.

We approach the stage all shyly, and I called Jesse's name. He looks down at us. "Yes?"

"Could we, um, have a picture of you?" I asked. Juliana stood next to me, totally entranced.

Jesse smiled. "You want one of me, or with me?" He asked.

Ohmygod. Did he just ask me that.

"Can we have one with you?" I ask, trying not to sound too excited, and failing.

Jesse chuckles. "Sure!" He replies cheerfully. I think, at this point, something in my brain popped. Which isn't good, seeing as something else popped the second we sat in those 2nd row seats.

So he leans down and poses with us, and I lean against him and feel myself get butterflies as our shoulders touch. The result?

This picture:

Juliana cheesin' it, Jesse looking hot as always, and me looking like a deer in headlights! Ha!

Oh, oh, I can't EVEN launch into the next part without telling the "card" story...LOL!

So, after the picture, I asked Jesse if he'd mind taking the cards we got both Clay and Team Clay. He smiled, said he didn't mind at all, so I turned to ask Juliana if she'd mind getting them from her purse (which, keep in mind, is like six feet away).

She looked at me as if I was speaking Russian. "Huh?" She asked.

"The cards, the two that we got at Hallmark for Clay and Team Clay! In your purse!" I said, looking at her as if she had lost her mind (which I think she had).

She turned around, looked right at the seats, and turned back around to me. "Is that where we sat?" She asked, pointing at the seats curiously, as if she didn't recognize our stuff there.

Jesse (unsuccessfully) tried to hold his laughter. "Yes, Juliana, those are it!" I said, turning her back around. Finally, she got it, and went to get them, while Jesse just kept chuckling behind me. I turned around to him.

"She's kind of flustered." I said.

"Yeah!" He said, still grinning and watching Juliana.

She came back to us and handed one card to me, and one to Jesse. My goodness, she was confused. I handed the card to Jesse, who couldn't look more amused. "Thank you so much, Jesse!" I said.

"Oh, you're so welcome! It's not a problem at all!" He said back. He was so sweet! He looked again at Juliana again and just smiled, and it was obvious he was flattered.

He smiled again and took his things and went offstage, and me and Juliana ran to each other to squeal a little more. "Ohmigod we met Jesse Vargas!" We said, enjoying our moment of fangirliness.

Oh, it was not over.

We were getting ready to head out and go out to the busline when Juliana turns around and slaps my arm. "MORGAN!" She squeaked. "It's Sean!"

I spin around and see Sean I had a little mental freak out. We had to go see him. We run back and stop a few feet from the stage and shyly call his name. He looked at us and we asked for a picture. All smiles, he comes down to us and says he wants to stand on the steps so he isn't so short. LOL. I love him.

But oh my gawdddd, I sooo embarrased myself in front of Sean. In two ways. One, I told him he was adorable. He just smiled. He's really really shy, for anyone who hasn't met him. And quiet.

And then, OMG, it gets worse. We took the picture, and I SMELLED HIM. Ahhh, what was I thinking??? I noticed while standing next to him that he smelled good, so I decided I'd just lean over and sniff!!

"You smell good." I said, and then, in my head, I thought "Oh my GOD, Morgan! Whyyy??"

Sean just smiled. "Thank you." He said shyly. "And thank you two for coming."

Then he left to go and take apart his drums some more. And this is our picture!

And THEN! I was in such a fog at this point, I don't really know the details of what happened right after that, but I knew we were going to leave (again) and this time....Juliana saw Jamie! I swear, I have to applaud Juliana's amazing Team Clay finding skills.

Okay, so, we run BACK to the stage and we call Jamie's name. She looks at us.

"Can we have a picture with you?" Juliana and I ask at the same time. Jamie spins around and looks behind her, then turns back around.

"Ya'll want one with me?" She asked, and I was trying not to giggle at her extremely thick Southern accent. She hopped down from the stage and came and took pictures with us, and she was soooo nice! We both told her how pretty she was and she was blushing sooo hard, haha! the picture turned out really cute though!

Then, finally, we headed out to the busline!! It was SO cold but we didn't even notice, we were still so excited. We joined Jen and Jacki and Amanda up front and waited. While we waited, we started talking to a girl in line who was a few years younger than me, and she said she was AmacLehman from the OFC! So we got pictures with her, since we knew her!

Isn't she so cute?? Haha!

It was freezing, so we took pictures to pass the time:

And then! We saw...QUIANA PARLER. I almost died. Somehow, I got the courage to call her name. She turned around and I told her about how Juliana's younger brother is in LOVE with her and he couldn't come, but he loves her a lot, and Quiana was like "Aww" and it was so awesome, Juliana got it all on tape!

She got on the bus and did something, then came back out and talked to people and got pictures with everyone. She got on to Juliana for not wearing her hoodie, hahahaha. Juliana was like "It's not cold!" with a look on her face like =D (her brain was sooo not working...but neither was mine!) and Quiana was rubbing her arms to get her warm, LOL, she was so sweet! She talked to us for a good while, and took a picture!

It was AWESOME! Then!!! We met ANGELA! And the coolest part was, I told her I gave Jesse a card to give to all of them, and she was like "Oh we all read it backstage! We loved it, it was so nice! We were trying to figure out who it was that sent it too!". I thought I was going to die, I was so excited! I felt like the luckiest girl in the world. They LIKED our card! I couldn't believe it. Ohmygosh, I was so excited. I love me some Angela Fisher, ya'll. I'd kill for her job, yes I would.

She met with a handful of people, taking pictures and talking with them. After she was done, she went back down the line shaking hands. When she got back to me and Juliana, she thanked us again for the card. Juliana and I could NOT have been more happy!

^ Me and Angela! =D

Unfortunetly, Clay didn't shake hands that night, nor did he even wave from the bus (sigh) but we still had so, so much fun! Coming home, Juliana and I both had a crash and burn off our Clay high and fell asleep on each other, LOL. We got home at about 4 AM-ish, and after Juliana had a fight with her suitcase (ooh Lord that was funny) and we crashed at 6. And we had to get up at 8 to take her to the airport, LOL.

And so we had to say goodbye....but we'll see each other in March, when we go to Spamalot!!

Hope you liked my review! My brain was all fuzzy from the Aiken Fog so it was probably kind of random at some spots, LOL.

And before I go...I want to say it was wonderful meeting SecretlyLovesClay, LauraQ, SmartyPantsSuz, claysgirlroczoregon, jenbec4360 (well we met her in Houston, but it was nice meeting her again!), clayaikenbug919, AmacLehman, and aclayday! And anyone else I may have missed!

Love ya'll! Morgan
