Happy New Year from Jon

From NKOTB.com

Happy New Year to you! Where does the time go? I can’t believe It was one year ago that Jordan and I left home and went to stay with Donnie to begin planning for our reunion! I hope this year was as great for you as It was for me and the rest of the New Kids. It has been so much fun traveling all over North America. This Is the best country ever. I am glad I got to see It all over again.

I survived the trauma of turning forty……. of course I’ll still lie about my age. I’ve been doing It for so long I can’t stop now. I had the best birthday ever. Sitting around the Four Seasons In Punta Mita, Mexico with a small group of friends. This hotel Is one of the best if you want to get away from It all and relax. It did take me a good three days to let go and be able to enjoy myself. I’m never one to sit around and do nothing but I was so ready to do just that. Went snorkeling off the coast on a tiny island wildlife refuge. The water was a bit murky the day we all went. It makes It kind of creepy when you can’t see far into the distance. At one point I saw some large black shadows circling beneath us. Convinced it was a school of sharks. I told the people in our group that there are some cool fish in the direction of the shadows. Hey, I didn’t know these people and I’d rather watch them become dinner and not my friends. Swimming back to the boat we found out it was a school of stingrays and not some hungry sharks. These things were amazing, they were as big as I. We also had the opportunity of coming across a huge sea lion asleep on the beach.

Amazing sights… amazing times… amazing food… amazing service…amazing friends!

So here I am, back out in Los Angeles. Although it’s not snowing like back home, it’s freezing cold! I guess the warm weather in Mexico spoiled me. We are getting ready to film our third video next week, than off to Europe for another go round. It has been so great to have this time off. I got to go back to work for a few days and experience what I’ve been missing. As much as I love doing the New Kids thing I am itching to get back to my company. If only I could work during the day and commute to our concerts every night I would have the best of both worlds. That is impossible as we all know, so for now my main focus will remain with you!

Looking forward to seeing you all again this spring and summer.

Jon
