We are all going to post on the theme of celebration....
At a risk of being boring - I'd like to share a very special celebration day for me - which was for my 50th birthday...
I have been a lifelong fan of The Osmonds since my teen years and for my 50th birthday my OH treated me to a meet and greet package when the Osmonds came over for their Anniversary tour. This tour was slightly different to normal as ALL of them were performing together, this included Marie and Donny who normally perform separately to the brothers... I got to see them rehearsing and doing the sound check for the concert-there was also a question and answer session. I got to meet - hug- and chat to all of them and then had front row seats for the evening concert...I know everone has different tastes but for me, this fulfilled a lifelong dream and it is a day I will always remember...here are some photos from the day - I also met Antony Costa as he had come to watch his 'I'm a celebrity get me out of here' buddy Jimmy Osmond .
A photo of them alltogether after their rehearsal..

Yours truly with Antony Costa...
So - that's one of my favourite 'celebration ' memories...I hope you enjoyed reading it (even though you MAY just have heard this story before !!)

I remember liking the Osmonds at infant school, but my tastes changed. Glad you had such a great time.
Your on-going love of the Osmonds does make m smile!

It's a great story!
I actually preferred David Cassidy but I also had several Osmonds records whilst in primary school! Must have been an amazing day to meet your idols!
Ohhhhh Donny and David Cassidy were my heros when I was a teenager and their posters were on the inside of my locker at school.
What a fantastic way to celebrate your 50th birthday!I'm so jealous!Thanks for your lovely comment on my blog!

I can't believe how little Donny has aged - I was a fan too, though not in your class LOL!
