Running to the rhythym

SO, once again I am trying to get in shape. SO to do that I am walking/jogging daily. It is a very sad start, but hey….it’s a start. I am trying to compile the ultimate running setlist on the Ipod for this………I cant seem to get past the Jr. High urge to put all metal and hip hop to “pump me up”. And sometimes, this is a good idea……these songs are perfect after all. But there is MUCH more out there made for this as well. I like a song that “soars” or takes on a pulse of its’ own….driving you to the end. So, I NEED YOUR HELP. Can you suggest some tunes for this purpose?
Here is what I have so far:
Ashes- Embrace
Stronger- Kanye West
Wolf Like me- TV on the Radio
Numb/Encore- Linkin Park and Jay-Z
The Beautiful People- Marilyn Manson
Intergalactic- The Beastie Boys
Magnificent- U2
Rearview Mirror- Pearl Jam
Lose Yourself- Eminem
Clocks- Coldplay
Shamrocks & Shenanigans- House of Pain
Hypnotize- Notorious BIG
Idioteque- Radiohead
Heaven- Jars of Clay

Please….help me get some new stuff…..

Sunny Saturday

It was a BEAUTIFUL day in Southern Oregon today! This winter has been insanely mild and nice. It was fun, but we'll be paying for the dryness this summer!

But....today was perfect. I captured these of the girls playing together in the back yard. it was adorable. Check out the pics and then PLEASE do yourself a favor and watch the video. Haddie was singing her soul out and we captured some of it the camera!

What does PRO LIFE really Mean?

It is a common combination on cars around this part of the country: some blend of Christian stickers (usually a fish and/or some sort of ProLife statement) combined with some sort of Patriotic support of the Wars in the Middle East (often accompanied by Anti-Obama propaganda as well).

I too am pro-life, but my stance is much different than most of these folks I imagine. To me, ProLife is not as black and white and simple as it's often made out to be. To me, ProLife does NOT just cover the unborn, but also those who are currently living as well!

So I wonder how these other folks reconcile a story like this.....

STORY

Any thoughts?

Proof in the walls

According to a recent archaeological find, there may be solid proff supporting King David's reign in the Bible. Hmmmm....these stories may actually be historical record. Who'd have thought? :)

Movie, Hit, No-No

So this is pretty much the cutest thing I have EVER seen! Haddie is discussing in great lengths that turning on a movie at that time and hitting her sister (aka "sissy") was a serious "no-no". She's a beauty. Enjoy
