My New Favorite Song--"Jesus Saves" by Jeremy Camp

One of my local Christian Radio Stations--Spirit FM- has been playing this "new release" by Jeremy Camp called "Jesus Saves."  The worship album is called  "We Cry Out" and will be released  on August 24, 2010!  (That's the day after my birthday for those of you last minute shoppers!!!)  I can't get it out of my head, so I thought I would share it with you all.  Enjoy!

World Cup Final Game

I started watching the games a few weeks into the matches and Spain was one of the first teams I watched play in the series. Seeing how the Spanish players worked together to help defeat their opponents endeared them to me. (That, and their good looks didn't hurt either!) So, I decided to cheer for this entertaining team-one that showed their love for the game in their fancy footwork and teamwork on the field.

Watching the final game of the World Cup series was quite an interesting experience.  I don't know much about futbol (soccer), but I do know excitement when I see it and Spain's players were definitely showing it!  I think the referee was fair--distributing yellow cards when needed--despite his bad call on Du Jong (?) when he kicked Alonso full-force in the chest.  THAT was clearly a red card.  However, he did have to deal with the players continuously arguing with him over their seemed injustices on the field and he kept his composure the whole game--including during the extra time.  (And I thought teaching was hard!)

Another phenomena we found during this series was that Paul, the octopus, is clearly able to choose the winning teams.  He's likely not to be sushi anytime soon.

Congratulations Spain!  Well done!

"Pray for You" by Jaron and The Long Road to Love

As I was browsing my favorite site for videos, I found this one that made me laugh out loud.  It's called "Pray for You" by Jaron and The Long Road to Love. Sometimes, (when I get a credit card bill in the mail) I wish I could play this song for my ex-husband.  Sometimes...



Hope this makes you laugh today!  Have a great Monday!

Happy 4th of July!

Have a blessed 4th of July!

"All the Wrinkled Ladies"

Did you miss me?  I've been gone this past week visiting my friend who retired and moved to Sylvania, Georgia with her husband and mother.  (More about my trip later this week.)  It was so peaceful and relaxing, but now I'm back. Yippee.

While perusing my limitless emails, I came across Angela Hunt's blog post with this hilarious spoof on Beyonce's "All the Single Ladies."  Personally, I like this version by Anita Renfroe better!  Let me know what you think!
