08/17/2004: "Back in California"
Well HEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLOOOOOOOO!! How is everyone doing out there? Hope all is well with everyone! So, we got a request to write more in the tour journal. So here I am!! I wasn't sure if we should still write in here even though we're not on tour. But you guys are lovin' it so I'm going to try my best to do it more often. I'm sorry it's taken me so long guys. I got really sick after getting back from Toronto. We had to catch a flight right after our second show on Sunday (sorry if we missed some of you, we'll be back I promise) and then they forgot to pack extra blankets on my flight! I was freezing! Anyhoo, I'm feeling much better now. Lots of water and lots of rest always works right? Worked for me! Now I finally have enough energy to say MAHALO Y'all! And I see our very own August Birthday Butterfly, Miss Karla has written in here too....SWEET! I just read her entry and let me just say, Ditto, Double and "Make that 2 please!" Arkansas and Toronto were AMAZING!!! It was so nice to perform together again and to get out there to promote the DVDs. Y'all....everything went perfect. Thank you all again for the support. Chrissy and Trish it was great seeing you and the kids in Arkansas. And thank you for passing out all the gifts from everyone! You were all with us in spirit...believe me we felt your AWESOME energy! It was a hot day in Bentonville, but with the tent up, the display fans going and 2 sets of water on each side of the stage..the show went on and it rocked!! It was like we never stopped touring. We had so much fun! And we were just as excited as everyone else to see the DVDs. I think they look great and I hope everyone is enjoying them.
Now onto Canada. WOWEEEEE! What a ride! I'm so happy we were able to make it up there and meet all of you! The shows went great and all the interviews that we did were awesome. We felt so much love up there and I thank you guys for that. It was nice to see how the show was doing in Canada and it seems to me that things are going great. We had so much fun performing for you all and exploring such a cool city! I loved it and I can't wait to make it back up there. I'm sure we will so we'll see everyone soon!! And to Mommy Zoi (or as her husband Chris called her, "The Chrissy Bridges of Canada) thank you so much for the Toronto Souvenirs! My magnet is on the fridge now. And I wanted to tell you that the roses were gorgeous! I tried to put mine in my hair for our second set of shows, but I couldn't figure it out:( I do want you to know though that a birthday girl came to visit us backstage and I gave the rose as a little gift to her. So it's definitely in good hands. And as Karla mentioned, our Sandy Lion Angels...thanks once again for the stickers! My favorite way to decorate! I love them...we all do...thanks so much for thinking of us. And if I too forgot anyone, I'm sorry, I have so many gifts, cards, everything in my "Hi-5 Treasure Box" and I'm so excited to make a scrap book out of it. I'll surely use the awesome scrapbook that you gave us as a guide :)
Alrighty Mums, Dads, Kiddies and all...I LOOOOOOOVE YOU!! And we will see you guys soon! No final word yet, but there is talk of a fall tour so keep your fingers crossed! Can't wait to sing and dance with all of you guys again!! We love it and I'm glad you guys are loving it too!! Until then, I'm just hanging out in California, taking dance classes and knitting Christmas gifts to keep myself busy:) I'm actually headed off home to Hawaii for a couple of weeks to visit my family. So expect to see a very tan Kimee the next time around. And if there are any kamaaina fans out there...maybe I'll see you at Zippys (a local eating joint...it's awesome..it's like the Hawaiian version of Dennys!) Okay...well, I miss you guys and I'm always thinking of you..Oh...one more thing..funny story:
So I was out with a friend of mine getting a quick bite to eat the Monday we had returned from Toronto. I was thinking about how much fun we had and also I was so excited about the DVDs coming out and all that. I was in the checkout line..and I thought I was hearing things. The little boy in front of us starts singing, "Five in the air let's do it together...HI-5!!!" I couldn't believe it!! I quickly went to him and said, "You know HI-5?" and he got so excited. His Mom didn't recognized me and I asked him if he knew my name. He was a bit shy and didn't say anything at first. His mom then figured out that I was in HI-5 and told me that he actually watches the Australian cast because a friend of his gave him a DVD. Maybe he thought I was Kathleen at first. She said she didn't know when we were on and had only found us once. I filled her in on the times and she said that she would look for us. So hopefully we have another fan:) That just made my day. I was missing you guys so much and then realized that you will always be with us!! YAY!!!
Alright, this is a really long entry....sorry. I'll talk to you all soon.
Much Love love and Aloooooha!!!!
Kimee BEEEEEEe
xoxoxoxo
ps....I wanted to mention the chat as well. It was so great to talk to you all!! We really had fun doing that and have agreed to do another. It got a little crazy at times, but we'll get better at reading and typing faster once we get the hang of it! luv luv!!
