Enjoyed My Birthday - Jessika Lester


Well November 9 was my birthday and I turned 20 years old! I could not have been happier to not only have turned 20, but to have gotten the pleasure to live to 20 and I hope I have more years to come! My birthday fell on a Saturday which everyone was telling me to have a huge party, but that sounded like to much work, and a lot of cleaning up after that would have been involved so instead I skipped that and enjoyed it was my family at first... then later that night went to a friend’s house instead and had people over and just socialized and played corn hole with some great friends. They had a garage that they had stuff to do in and outside they had a burn barrel and music playing while they were throwing corn hole. I couldn't have wanted it any other way and was so thankful for how it went! The only thing that was a little disappointing was that I couldn't drive my truck to the party or get together you could call it as well, because I had lost it! That wasn't very exciting however everything else was very fun!

 

Making JJ Lawhorn Music Video - Jessika Lester


Around a year ago from this month, I was asked to be in JJ Lawhorn's music video. That was a no brainer! Of course I wanted to go! I remember when I was asked I was extremely excited and couldn't wait to go. I messaged Professor Sweeney telling him about what I was invited to do and he gave me the okay when I had to miss class (thanks again for that). Next thing I had on my mind was what am I going to wear?! There was so much I had going on in my head but I couldn't wait till that day arrived! When the day finally came I was anxious to see how it was going to play out. When I got there I unloaded my horse, got her saddled up, rode around for a little bit and met some new people who turned into good friends. Next it was time to make the music video. We all gathered around and said what we were going to do (after every scene), until the whole thing was put together. We all said our goodbyes and took pictures together to remember this awesome event we all had encountered together and a year later we will always have this music video to look back on! Check it out! If your wondering which one I am, I am the blonde wearing the white jacket! ENJOY!!

Meeting JJ Lawhorn Part 2 - Jessika Lester

We were walking around and I remember feeling someone grab my arm and I then turned around seeing a cute blonde with the biggest smile on her face just smiling at me, I couldn't help but smile back at her even though I had no clue of who she was! She didn't say hi, she didn't even say hey, he response was "do you want to go backstage with Colt Ford?" I was speechless with a smile still on my face, I turned around looking at my friend who had a her eyebrows up in the air and a half grin on her face, probably still in shock of this girl asking that. I told my friend Kendall that lets follow her and see if she is for real, I thought she might have been drunk and was playing a prank but I was willing to see how it ended. On our way walking through the crowd as she is still latched to my arm, she said JJ told me to go find some pretty girls and that why she got us, which made my day! We got up to were the crowd was packed the most at because its where the country stars were about to pass and we waited there for a second with a couple other girls, I started talking to Melody ( the girl who grabbed me) and I started talking to her, finding out that this was actually JJ sister! She was the sweetest thing ever! JJ then came out and smiled at us asking if we were ready to get on the tour bus! OF COURSE! It was taking some time so I thought that maybe this wasn't really going to be happening but when he came back he pulled the line up and the cops watched us as about five girls walked under the line, my friend and I being two of them! We got on the bus and we met Colt Ford, it was an awesome experience that I am so thankful that I got to be apart of!
