American Idol

Juliet and I had a great time at idol. They put us in the "mosh pit" at the edge of the stage. within touching reach of the judges when they walked by and Cameron Diaz and Antonio Banderas stood by us for awhile.....can I say that Cameron is so beautiful IRL......wow!!! We then got moved into some seats behind the judges...then back to the pit for awhile when the bottom 3 were announced and then up to some seats....we were so close for everything, never higher than second row...really a lot of fun!!! If the full sized video doesn't show up, double click on it and it should open in Youtube....(we are on from 1:23 through 1:50...Juliet is just behind Randy)


Oh...and they prefilmed Lady Gaga...she was amazing...even if you don't like her style...the number was pretty neat with an interesting set ... she looked great and lots of cute male dancers. She was not a diva at all...talked to everyone on stage nicely (it seemed) and talked to the audience, etc....it will be on in 2 weeks...the set was so big it took a long time to set up.

Izzy got her first real "grown-up" haircut today. We had them style it for her so that she could see what it looked like straightened too.

Sisters

We are on Spring Break this week and the girls were looking for something to do. We decided to go on a photo shoot. We got some really nice pics of the girls together and lots of individuals. Plus a lot of "just for fun" shots....top model style.

 

What's going on?

 

I heard all this noise outside so went out to check it out. Apparently the mockingbirds have a nest nearby and a crow went a little too close. The crow was so calm and really didn't seem phased by the mockingbirds scolding him. They kept dive bombing him and he just walked around like it was no big deal.

Won't you come in?

 

Okay...so remember awhile back there was a bird that kept knocking on our windows. He comes back every so often and taps...Well...he learned his lesson this weekend. He came up to the sliding door and tap tap ...oh...the door is open so I'll go on in. I don't think he was really happy once he was inside! It took me 10 minutes to get him back out the door and about the same amount of time to settle the dogs down afterwards!!!

April Fools Day

No fools here...just a little rain. The flowers are having a hard time holding their heads up with the water on them, but they sure are pretty.
