------Wednesday, February 13------
I arrived in Portland early this morning, and I went to my hotel to get some rest. I fell right asleep right as set my stuff in the hotel, and my cousin MaKenna helped me grab my stuff from the car. Ohh, by the way, I have a cousin named MaKenna who lives in Portland, and I so called "hired" her to be my assistant for my tour. When she walked in the room, she saw that I was passed out on the bed, so she grabbed an extra blanket that we brought with us and put it over me so I could be more comfortable. After 30 minutes, I woke up and noticed that MaKenna was busy on my computer doing some things. I slowly stood up, and made my way over to her. "Good Morning my dear cousin." She smiled. "What are you up Kenna?" I asked. "Ohh, nothing. Just browsing around through your schedule to see what your schedule is looking like." She replied. Right then, I heard my phone going off, and I saw that my brother David was calling me. "Hey Davey!" I answered. "Hey Jenn. How are you feeling?" He replied. "I'm feeling a lot better. Thanks for asking." I smiled. "So, I'm guessing you already talked with MaKenna, and I'm guessing that she's with you right now." David said. "Yes, she's with me right now." I replied. "Hey David!" MaKenna shouted and smiled. "Hey, Kenna!!" David replied. "David says hi!" I told MaKenna. I talked with David for the next 30 minutes before I had to hang up. Right as I got off the phone with my brother, my husband Cody called. "Hey baby, your brother just called and said that you and your cousin are at the hotel already." Cody said. "Yes, we are. I actually just woke up from a little nap because I was so tired from the flight." I replied. "Well, I'll let you get some more rest then. I just called to check up on you." Cody said. "Ok babe, I'll call you later. I love you and the boys so much." I replied. "We love you too, babe." Cody replied as we hung up our call.
------30 minutes later-----
MaKenna and I arrived at the Crystal Ballroom, and we saw that the crew for the tour were helping set up for tomorrow night's show. We walked down the stairs and made our way towards the stage to help them out. "Hey guys, you made it." One of the crew members smiled. "It's good that there wasn't any traffic while coming here." I laughed. We got up on stage and helped the crew and the stage crew finishing setting up the lights and the stage so we could get started on rehearsing. After we finished setting up, the girls, guys, and I got ready to rehearse each of our sets. With the management, they decided that each of the guys would perform to 4 of the songs that they choose, and the girls would do the same. And it was also decided that I would be the first one to the start the show off.
------Thursday, February 14------
After the other girls and the guys picked their songs to dance to, I decided that for my part of the tour, I would dance to "Versace On The Floor," "24K Magic," "Despacito," and "Earned It." (A.N. - I'll have all the songs that Jennifer is going to dance to posted below.)
"Versace On The Floor" by Bruno Mars
"24K Magic" by Bruno Mars
"Despacito" Remix by Luis Fonsi & Daddy Yankee ft. Justin Bieber
"Earned It" by The Weeknd
Once everyone finished rehearsing their songs, I decided to treat MaKenna and my fellow dancers to dinner before we have to go back and start the show. We decided to go to Chipotle for dinner. Once we all ordered our food, we sat down at a booth and chatted. "So it's been a long time since we've all seen each other." I said. "Yeah. I've just been really busy with rehearsing for this tour." Madison replied. "What about you, Jennifer?" Brian asked. "Ohh, I've been really busy with my kids, taking care of them, and of course, tending to my husband." I smiled. "Sorry to bring it up, but, I heard that your husband was your brother's ex-best friend before. Is that true?" Michael asked. "Yes, it is true. I mean, it doesn't really bother me at all because now, my brother and my husband are both friends again." I smiled. "That's great to hear. And, how are your kids doing?" Madison asked. "They're doing great. They're with my husband and his Mom in Ohio right now." I replied. "We have a show on tour in Ohio, right?" Chad asked. "I believe so, and I think it's in Columbus. But, my husband and kids will be back in LA by then, and I'll get to see them during that stop. And of course, you guys can meet them too." I smiled. "Yeah. I told my husband to bring the kids, and they are really excited to come." I smiled. "I can't wait to meet them." Madison smiled. We finished our food and headed back for the venue. Once we arrived, the guys headed straight for their dressing rooms while the girls and I headed to our dressing rooms and stayed there. After 2 hours of getting ready and getting dressed, the boys were all ready, and they made their way to their designated rehearsal room. The girls had their own rehearsal rooms, while I had my own separate room from everyone one else to begin my practice, since I'm performing first. It was time for me to perform, so I walked out by the stage and waited for my name to be announced. After my performance, I went back to make sure that the next person performing was ready to go on. After 20 minutes, it was time for Madison's performance. I walked out with Madison and watched her dance her heart out on the stage. Once she was done performing, I walked back with her to our dressing room and we got ourselves dressed for the rest of the night. Once the last person finished their performance, being Michael, we all got onto the stage, held hands together, and bowed our heads. I was given a microphone and thanked everyone for coming. "Good Evening, Portland, Oregon! Thank you all for coming and watching us do our thing, and it means so much to every single one of us here on stage, that you all are here." I smiled. "And with that, I hope you all have a great night, and we will see you at our next stop!" I smiled as we all bowed one last time.
Next stop..... Seattle, Washington.
