Tag- you're it!

Amy tagged me so I have to come up with 7 things no else knows about me. I'm a blabber so this will be hard. Well, some people may not know all this. And some may be repeats from last time.

1. When I am over tired, I get really silly and slap happy. It's almost like I'm inebriated.
2. I was an academic nerd in high school, but not a social nerd.
3. I love cheese. Cheese on anything makes it better.
4. I ran cross country in high school.
5. I am an organization fanatic. It's hard for me to rest when things are out of order.
6. I like to solve problems. I love to help people, but have little patience for those who aren't interested in helping themselves.
7. I am NOT crafty at ALL, but I can get by.

Lightning McQueen- YEAH!

Andrew got this awesome Lightning McQueen power wheel from "Uncle Deaner" when he went to Michigan this past January. Well it was a big hit at the bon fire we had last month. The kids had a ball and Caitlin did, too. Here are Eli in the car, Quinn in the car and Caitlin on the car. We love ya, Caty!






Halloween Fun



I had some slide.com difficulties, but I finally figured it out. We had a hoot! Here is a video of one person we got. The best one wasn't on camera....

Dancing Baby

No, it's not that little computer animated one from Ally McBeal- it's E-ba-dee! I don't know the song, but Eli was scootin' with it!

How sad....

The other day Charles and I were watching TV and we saw a disturbing ad. It was a guy waking up with his wife (obviously a dude in a wig) and proceeds with showing how unhappily married he was. I forget what the voice over was saying, but at the end it showed the company's (or whoever put this on) name and the tag line is "life is short, have an affair." I was SHOCKED. Charles said, "Is that a real commercial?" I don't know, but I was so saddened and disturbed by the commercial- it bugged me for a while.

How sad that someone out there spent their resources to promote such an awful thing? God made family the foundation of his creation. With all the moral decline and disregard for values out there today, do we need to promote this kind of thing? Advertise for it? It made my stomach turn.
