august 13th, 2000
thats right... 2 years ago today, on august 13th- was when kim and jen sat down at the computer and started playin around. who knew? so this page is just a... chance for me to talk about stuff, and thank you all! as crazy as it sounds- the tyler page IS a big part of my life. i have my own life 'n all but, on the web its a big part of it... i'm amazed with the success of our little page- and i owe more than half of it to the chasez family, and the helping fans. you guys have been so great to us! providing us pictures, information... None of the tyler page would exist- except for .. 3 pics, and a couple words, if it werent for you guys! so this is a "happy anniversary" to youuuu! ;)
the success of this page has been overwhelming, i still cant believe it. 55,000+ people in these two years? [and who knows how many more, considering our counter has accidentally started going BACKWARDS twice..] with now 75 pictures... all from fans 'n stuff. 3 guestbooks? that's over 500 people just who signed to say hi! thats awesome... as well as, an INFINTE amount of loving emails :) and i've made a lotta new friends too!
the chance to run this page has been great, and the experiences that have come with it are even better! i've been able to make a lot of people happy- by bringing them inside info and pictures of a family they all admire. in november of 1999 the makers of the official tyler page created an "online interview" with the family. we get so many questions in the email everyday- and always try to do our best to answer each one of them.. but sometimes, we cant! so we asked many fans to submit their questions to us, and successfully answered ALL questions in a chasez family online interview. ;) thanks a lot to karen and roy for helping some people feel specialll!
even better, january and february 2000 we were able to do much more! not only do we get questions for the chasez family, but heartfelt letters from people who's.. life DREAM is to talk to such a great family. during the start of the new millennium we managed to gather fans' letters and created a secret and special page for the chasez family, filled with all the long stories and letters we had received. them being the amazing family they are- successfully responded to over a dozen emails and made many people's "wishes" come true. we're thankful that we can be the ones to do that for you guys... aw.
this month, well july and august 2000, the lovely group on the message board and i even got the chance to send a housewarming gift to karen and roy in their new home. it hasnt arrived yet but should pretty soon... hope you enjoy it!
so i cant express how much i enjoy running this page. there are some draw backs.. some people dont like it, some people try to fool us as posers and sending information- but its all "in a day's work." all the hundreds and thousands of emails we've received with compliments and the new friends we've met have made it all worthwhile!
one special thanks as well goes to all the people [almost 300 now.. completely amazing.] who put up with my rambling all the time on the "tylerrocks update list". not only is it an update list, but a huge list of supporters and fans. you guys are awesome, with the feedback you send, the stuff you listen to, and the happiness you bring! ;) thanks guys.
one last thing, obviously we can't thank anyone more than... the wonderful Chasez family. if it weren't for you this would be a total waste of my time ;) thanks for bein' so helpful at all times and helping us every way you have. i enjoy talking to you guys so much and hope i've never been a bother... you guys mean a lot to us and i hope you're enjoying your new home and have settled nicely. i'm sorry you've been so busy lately, give us a shout when you have some laid back free time. :) [and your house warming present from the lovely message board is on it's way!] for the hundredth time, i can never say it enough: thank you!
and tyler? we've been doin this since you had 2 years left in high school... you've been great to us, even with misunderstandings and some odd emails. thanks for always being kind and the great person we know you to be. have an amazing time at college- they should be some of the best years of your life! i wish you ALL the luck in the world, and i hope ya get to do what you wish!
finally, thanks "fans"... for readin this! haha, it's been my time out to think back and thank everyone for the millionth time. hey, i wouldnt say it if i didnt mean it..! two years and stronger than ever... we love u allllll! ;)
love, kim
