Maggie vs. Snow

I had to share this because she was so terrified and I was having way too much fun!

Love can cure your problems.....your so lucky I'm around.

Love, love, love Pete Townsend! And this is just a song that has been stuck in my head the past couple of days....so I thought I would share it. For anyone who is not aware of Pete and his greatness, please google him. Check him out! You will not be disappointed!

XOXO

Talk about the ULTIMATE photo-op.

I could only wish I was a fly on the wall in the private dining room, off to the side of the oval office today. Gee, I could only imagine. But this picture at least let's fantasize about what was said today. What a photo.

Just to let it be known

If there are times of the year I wish would just be over with before they start, it would be January and February! I hate the winter! Just thought I would share!

Hope everyone is having a wonderful day!

Happy New Year to all! I am posting this song for obvious reasons. Old Lang Syne is the traditonal New Year's song. But this song, to me is just such a beautiful song, and it does have special meaning to me. This is my dad's favorite artist. And I don't blame him. He was a very gifted artist. I hope you enjoy, I sure am!

Happy Holidays!

I am going to be working in the morning, and then I am off to Leitchfield to see my mom and family. And then off to Morgantown to see my dad and family. I wanted to let everyone know I am wishing them a safe and happy holiday weekend. I hope you enjoy your family and friends, and have loads of fun.


xoxo

Elijah James!

Is he not the cutest little thing? I love him! Whit and Nick are very lucky, and they are already such wonderful parents! I love you guys too! As promised.....here he is!

Christmas Card photo session!

As you can see in the photos, Maggie was NOT feeling this photo session! But to the lucky 65, you will be seeing one of these images in your mailbox very soon!

Oh Christmas time....the time to GIVE!

I have never been one to think of Christmas as my favorite time of the year. For it to be in the running for that, it would have to be 80 degrees outside and drinking was allowed at family functions. Oh and none of the stress of the holidays involved. This Christmas seems to be a little more on the stressful side than others I can recall. It has been a horrible year to say the least. Our economy is in a huge downturn, and I really hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I agree with the people who say it will get worse before it gets better. I do though believe it will get better! America is very resilient. And I take pride in that fact. But with the stress of this Christmas, I wanted to take time to remind everyone that there our people who will not be able to celebrate. Maybe they lost their job. Maybe they are without a home because of foreclosure. Maybe they are out fighting a war. Oh maybe they are so strapped for cash that they can't afford a Christmas. For those people, I ask that you remember the Christmas spirit and the TRUE American way. Treat those people as you would want to be treated in that situation, and give. Volunteer, help out in a soup kitchen, donate to the salvation army, give blood, adopt an animal, or donate to a shelter. I know of many good people who are going without this year. And I am thankful that I still have a home, food, and a job. I just ask that you take time to stop and see the true spirit of Christmas.
If more people did, maybe Christmas would be my favorite Holiday after all. Cold weather aside.

Video of the week/month!

So I just watched the Britney special on MTV. Good stuff. Though I would NEVER want her life. But here's to Miss B. Happy Birthday, I just can't get enough of her.

Blonde or Brunette...

I have been seriously flirting with the idea of going a dark mocha brown. I am naturally a blonde, but it just sounds so exotic and exciting to dye my hair dark. I am still in debate over it, but if you see new pics of me posted soon you will know I overcame my fear.

-On another note, sorry I haven't posted in a while. I have been L-A-M-E!

Other news, Whit had her baby boy! Eli is now here. I am finally making the haul down to Louisville and I plan to post new pics of him as soon as I get back! Congrats to my DAB! She is the bomb.com! And her baby is too!

Palin, I prefer monsters in my nightmares!

Really the title of this blog says it all. It's true too! I can't even sleep at night, this woman is consuming me. Maybe it's because I watch too much CNN. But this woman is against everything I seem to stand for. I am all for a woman in power, but Palin is not that woman. Hillary would have been. I don't even want to get started on my dislike for the republicans right now. They are disgusting me. I am I suppose an overly concerned citizen and voter. This election may send me to the ER with ulcer pains. But please, for those reading who are not familar with Mrs. Palin, take a look at where she stands on issues. Enjoy!

You will have to copy and paste that link. Sorry!

It's a Boy!

So Adam's sister Nancy had a baby last tuesday. His name Ryan Joesph Alan Langworthy...long I know...but he is adorable...I just love him. All is well, baby and momma! Yay! I just love little boys. So adorable. See I get giddy just talking about them...




And on that note, i believe this is the year of the boys. One of my best and favorite friends Sara gave birth to a beautiful baby boy named Maddox in March. And one of my other best and favorite friends is due to give birth to a beautiful baby boy in November!

Video of the Week!

Honestly the video I wanted someone had blocked the sharing of...boo on them...so here is my second choice...if you wish to hear my first choice...go look up "After Midnight, Eric Clapton, Crossroads." It's pretty stellar!....but enjoy this one... It a good one...and just happend this weekend at Bonnaroo...LOVE THIS SONG!!!

Take time to remember....

I know I am just going to be turning 24 years old this year, but for those how know me, they know I have a deep love for history and for politics. So of course I wanted to blog tonight on Robert F. Kennedy. Possibly my favorite Kennedy. It is forty years ago tonight that he was celebrating his primary win in California. It is also tonight that he was fatally wounded. Though he was shot in the morning hours of June 5th, it was tonights victory celebration that it occured at. I like to think of him as an inspirational person in very trying times. The 60's were a pivitol point in our nations history. He was the rock star then. I can't help but compare what is happeing now, and the capmpaign that we have going on to what was happeing back in 1968. Barack just secured the nomination after a close primary on June 3. RFK secured it on June 4, after a very close primary as well. Both were and are in Obama's case suppose to bring change. And they invoke a certain excitment in people. One that makes you feel like you can help change our world for the better. I think that this is also a critical time we live in. We have a war that I feel was propaganda for The Bush administraion and there quest to be oil rich. We have a struggling economy, a very bad credit crisis, our rankings in the world have fallen. And the next president will be the one appointing supreme court justices. It could be the most conservitve bench, or god willing,be balanced. We also have an enviroment in shambles. We have alot on our plate. And a change is needed. If you have not taken the time to get fimilar with Obama and McCain I think now is the time. And if you really want to be inspired I suggest you read up on RFK. He too was quite a "Rockstar."

"Few will have the greatness to bend history; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total of all those acts will be written the history of this generation ... It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is thus shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance."- Robert Francis Kennedy

Video of the week

So Weezer has a new album out today, I listened to the whole thing on Sirus this weekend, and I think it rocked. Here is the video for the single "Pork and Beans", I hope you enjoy!

A must read!

As if I needed another reason to really dislike the administration...

http://www.motherjones.com/news/qa/2004/10/09_402.html

I just read my new issue of newsweek, which if you do not read I suggest you do. It is very informative, though I do believe it to be a little biased to Obama, but really what media outlet is not these days? Anyways, the point at hand that got me looking at this issue of our enviroment and Bush came from the cover story of endangered species, and the politics of getting them listed into the ESA, or endangered species act. It is very alarming and also eye opening in the ways of this administarion. I am all for helping the enviroment over profit of any kind. Nature before companies is hwo it should be. Though if you feel differently, I would ask you to stop thinking of it as about you, and think of your children and grandchildren. Anyways, I suggest reading both articles...very good reads!

Oh how I can count the ways I love him...

So, I was looking up ways to get more protein and not eat meat, and what did I discover? That PAUL MCCARTNEY eats no meat as well. I seriously could not have made a better man if I was given the option. Well...Mr. Big maybe...but seriously check it out!

Oh please be faking!

I admit, I have become completely obsessed with CSI Miami!!! I love Horatio! I think he is soooo funny. But on the season finale the other night, it ends with him appearing to be shot to death!!! I almost died, how can you kill off the main character? Why in the world would anyone watch if him and his shades were not on the show! So heres to hoping that Horatio is faking his death and will once again get the bad guys! Why do I care so much? BECAUSE HORATIO IS THE MAN!!!!!!
