How fun! And seriously, I just can't believe (I mean, I can, but barely) how awesome your family and friends are to you! They had a sign - and included your blog! So cool.

And I'm glad they won! :)

Yes, I have a funny story about that time. I was 15 and we sang at a boy's correctional center.....while we were in a room waiting, someone came in and said we shouldn't sing Born Free! :)
Do you sell your art work? I would love to buy some...I really like your things!
Thanks,

Yeah, but we don't need Riley thinking he's any more important than he already does. =-X

I love that you saw Up with People! Yep, mom and dad watched it too... we'd call each other during time outs. We'd be quite the pair at a hockey game, Vicky! (Well, first I'd have to learn about hockey...)

I was such a maniac over the sign... I called my mom to make sure they saw it and she was laughing at me. They loved watching it too.

He is cute :) No, this was a conference thing with other private schools... I'm not sure how it all works but they don't go to state.

Shut the door! ;) And seriously... Riley was soooo jealous that he couldn't get my attention. There was a lot of whining...

I'm so not surprised we have that in common :) I said to my sister he should be glad I can't be there in person... he'd be so embarrassed by me and my cheering :-[

I know, right? I never thought they'd do that in high school...

I just went and Googled "Up With People" to see if I even had those lyrics right, and that was a real blast from the past. I had forgotten about the song, "What Color is God's Skin?" which I think we sang at the Catholic grade school I went to. Too funny!

"Up, up, with people; you meet 'em wherever you go. Up, up, with people; they're the best kind of folks you know!" That's all I can remember, but I remember Up With People. Dh and I were just talking about them last week! 8-)

I see everyone in your family has the "great smile" gene.

When it came to choosing sides for basketball, or any other sport, I was always the last one picked, after my dog, who went with me every where. Of course Buttons was a pretty dribbler. :)

Shouldn't that sign read "Hi Riley and Sara"?

In the late 60's, Up With People came to our civic center here in Panama City, FL.....the enthusiasm was so great that a local group was formed and was called Sing Out America....I was in the group, we traveled to lots of places near our town....I can still sing the (then) Up, Up with people song...and several of the other songs.

That is AWESOME! I love it for you. Wow...do you have any unsightly folks in your clan? Do you just politely shove them out of camera sight when photo time comes or are you all so cute?

Congrats to the Eagles!
