Our First Baby

Isn't it funny how the pet that was once your "baby" suddenly gets put to the back burner because of your "real babies"? Our cat, Lofton, was once the apple of our eye. We threw her a birthday party when she turned 1. I remember when she would sleep on our heads when she was just a kitty. We used to buy her toys and Jon played hide and seek with her frequently. One winter we painted our family room and Lofton evidently enhaled too many paint fumes...she was on her deathbed. We took her to the Vet, left her there over the weekend and even visited her while she was there. A few tears and about $500 later she was home with us again.

Well, now unfortunately for Lofton, she doesn't get much love from us. Jon keeps her fed and watered, but other than that she mostly lives in the house on her own terms.

If anyone knows someone that needs to give out some extra love...I'm sure Lofton would appreciate it. To us, she's priceless! (That means she could go to a loving home for free)

Blame It On The Rain!

Okay, call me crazy! When I was in 8th Grade, these guys were my FAV!! I knew every word to their songs and had a poster of them in my room. I had their cassette tape, had piano sheet-music of their songs, I recorded them on my VCR when they performed on the sitcom "Sister Act" and then watched it over and over again trying to perfect their moves. I even made a head and shoulders ceramic in art class of Rob Morvan (the one on the right) - I think I still have that somewhere.

I was definitley bummed when I learned of their horrible deception - they were just a front. They were just the "pretty faces" and pretended to sing these songs.

Well, today on Music.Yahoo.com is states that there is a movie in the works about these guys. They sold 30 million records, but are now known as the biggest joke in pop music.

I doubt that the movie will ever really make it to the big screen, but if it does....I'll be the first one in line to watch.

SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS!

Colts Win! What a great win for Peyton Manning and Coach Tony Dungy. They seem like such sincere, humble, likable guys. Certainly because the Bears are also close by, the game was especially fun to watch. We were definitely pleased with the outcome!

We have a little Colts cheerleading outfit that Avery has been wearing the last few months. She recently told her teacher at school that she wants to be a Cheerleader when she grows up. I don't have any knowledge in that area...so we can learn about it together. Go Team!
