This Just In......

I've decided that I haven't been really fair to the game of football...or maybe I wasn't being fair to myself. I don't really understand the sport, so I just wrote it off as something I'll never understand. Well, recently my eyes have been opened to the world of this game...and I decided that I needed a team...fast. Everyone's got a team they call their own. My brother John likes the Eagles, Matt roots for the Buffalo Bills, most of Northern Iowa thinks the Vikings are keen. I didn't want to pick a team based on scores....no one wants to be a bandwagon fan. So, I got to thinking....and it didn't take me long to come up with none other than....the Cleveland Browns! Now, I'm a new fan, so I'll admit that I don't know much. I do know that the quarterback's name is Charlie Frye. Also, their most recent victory was against the Chiefs in overtime. That was a nailbiter. True that the uniforms aren't the best color combination...but they've got heart and determination. And that, my friends, is what football is all about.
GO BROWNS!!

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After years of searching the globe high and low, I finally found them.....WAX LIPS!! I'm so excited! It has been my quest for 5 years to find wax lips. Why? You ask? So I can go with my friends to Wal*Mart and get our pictures taken with them, of course. Beings that it's the holidays, however....We'll have to postpone the photos until January or so....but here are a couple pictures of me and my coworkers (Josh and Shannon) sporting our Angelina Jolie looks. :)

Elmo Loves his Goldfish, His Crayons too.....

That's Elmo's World!
As you can see, Elmo is Hunter's new obsession. She loves anything and everything that deals with that red, fuzzy little monster. She's not shy about asking to watch her Elmo movies, either. I spent this weekend with her and was laying on the couch. She came over and bonked me on the head with her "Elmo For the Holidays" dvd. I got the hint. The good news is, Christmas shopping for her is going to be a snap! :o)

Okay, okay!

Some of you have been mentioning that you went to meet my friend, Stephanie...Well, unless you drive your buns to Iowa, this is the best I can do for ya. Here is Steph and her husband, Matt, and their kids. Cuties!

While I'm here, let me tell you a little thing or two about this fam... There's Matt...He likes Xbox, Karate, the Buffalo Bills, dogs, and doesn't like..................cheese. Have you ever met anyone in your entire life that doesn't like cheese? It's friggin' CHEESE! I think about Matt and his distain for cheese nearly everyday. It's something I'll need to get over....but I thought you all should know that someone exists in this world who doesn't like cheese. Yep, still dwelling...

Anyway, I work with Stephanie. She pretty much rawks my face off. She hates the phrase "rawks my face off". She is an awesome mom to her beautiful children and a pretty rockin' friend to have. Stephanie drives a minivan and she'll threaten to run you over with it if you cross her. Watch yourself. She loves Christmas and, well....her family. She has a myspace account now and I'm working on getting her a blog.... Anyway, these guys are my Iowa peeps. I think they're neat...I thought you should know.
