'We started settling down and making sure our flash cameras and video camera was cued and ready for fun. We tried to make sure that everything we wanted signed was in its place. The people in line were very interested in the little goodies we brought with us to have signed. While standing in line, we started talking to the other fans about how long they have watched and been a Bo and Hope fan. We all agreed that for the last few weeks, we have all been in Bo and Hope heaven. Thanks to Kristian and Peter’s powerhouse performances in the wake of Bo and Hope finding out the secrets that surround JT. All the fans agreed, “Hope should keep JT too,” by the way. Why were all of these fans standing in line for hours and hours to see Peter and Kristian? Because, as a few of them said, “Because of them, Bo and Hope never lose their spark.” They are just the best of the best. Judging by the lines that were wrapped around the inside and outside of the center, many fans feel the exact same way.
"It was now 10:00 AM. The doors were opened and the crowds ushered in. By this time, the line was stretching for a long distance. We stood in line for the next hour, talking about website places for fans to visit. Many would ask, “ Is Kristian as beautiful in person as she is on the show?” Or they would ask, “Is Peter as HOT off-screen?” Anticipations were running high and the closer the 11:00 came, the more excitement you could feel. All of a sudden, you could hear the screams and Kristian and Peter appeared. By that time, the questions were quickly answered, “She is beautiful.” One woman said, as she saw Peter, “Heart be still.” I have to say they looked awesome, as always. By noon, they had to cut off the line for them because there was no way Kristian and Peter would be able to get to every fan. And at that time, they still had three hours of signing left. The fans came out in droves. They must have signed a few thousand autographs, but they tried to get to all the fans.
" Peter and Kristian had a glow about them. Their smiles were just infectious. Kristian dazzled the fans with her interaction with all the babies. The babies didn’t seem at all afraid, like looking at a very familiar face. It was if she gave Peter would make a small gesture and the babies would just laugh. Now we know why the Rips twins (JT Brady) has so much fun. Many fans were more surprised at how down to earth the two of them were. Their smiles were inviting and the fans seem to find it easy to start a conversation with them. Of course Kristian and Peter didn’t make it difficult for them either. They listened so attentively to the fans and everything they had to say. The fans seem to appreciate that more than anything. It is amazing, they are so versatile and aware of all going on around them. A little girl was in a booth nearby, climbing up a wall, in an exercise, and Peter and Kristian both took notice of it. When the little girl made it to the top, they clapped along with everyone else. It was just the little things they did that made the fans feel like they weren’t seeing two stars, but two good friends. As one lady put it, “I am so glad they were everything I hope they would be. It would have been disappointing if they were any other way.”
