The Voice

As you probably guessed, my new favorite show is called "The Voice" For those of you who don't know what it is, The Voice is like American Idol, except for all the auditions are blind auditions. Four celebrity musical icons (aka--the coaches/Christina Aguilera, Adam Levine--aka, Maroon 5's lead singer---, Cee Lo Green--aka R&B sensation---, and Blake Shelton--aka Country Star)listen to the contenders without being able to look at the contestants and then turn their chairs around to finally view the singer and signify they are interested in working with the contestant. If more than one coach turns their chair, the contestant chooses the coach they would like to work with. After that, contestants are eliminated and the winner gets a contract with some recording agency. Aaaaanyways, casting for the second season is upon us and..........I'll be submitting a video audition shortly. Possibly. So! In the event that I actually end up on the show, and just for fun, which coach would you want to work with and why?

Minute To Win It Challenge!

So the other day, Emily and I hit the town and whilst in my car, Emily discovered these kids meal toys that I had been needing to D.I., and insisted we stop at the park and play with them. As it turns out, they were a perfect source of entertainment----you'll see why.

The objective:

The outcome:

*****ugh, this video is not working, so I'll work on that*****

aaaaannd then Emily locked herself out of her room, so I had to use my Super Sloothing abilities to bust in.

And the next day, we went for a hike up through the Wind Caves.

And this is totally off the subject, but seriously. Tell me this is not my child. Had I not known I've never been pregnant and had I never seen the video of them ripping Iz out from Tia's stomach, I could totally believe she's mine.

Anyway, as I'm sure you can tell, this is not a recap of the past nine or so months that I've neglected to blog---I'm just starting anew. My goal is to have a post (at the very least) every other week, so STAY TUNED!
