My Vote for American Idol...


Yes, this is my official coming out...Hi, my name is Lindsey Colvin and I am addicted to American Idol. I love Ellen and Simon, Kara and Randy and talk to them on the TV like I'm sitting right next to them. I have even passed this obsession on to my little girl (she laughs at everything Simon says and will go up to the TV to give him kisses). Call me crazy, but I just love it. Now that I've confessed, lets get to the heart of this post.

I have to admit that I was a little disappointed in some of the people that they let go through to the top 24. They kept saying (especially to the girls) that there was a lot of competition and that it was really difficult to make a decision, and yet they let contestants like Mr. Jim Morrison Wannabe through. Perhaps he is a diamond in the rough...but seriously? It's hard to even watch the kid [insert deep inhale and exhale]. Getting off of my soap box I will say that the majority of the top 24 are going to be a blast to watch. I especially like Andrew Garcia, Crystal Bowersox, and Lilly Scott. But Didi Benami is the one that I'm hoping goes all the way! So for all of those "closet" or blantantly open Idol Fans, I pose the question: who's your pick for 2010? and do you really even notice that Paula's gone?

The Joys of Life




I don't have too long to write (because my very active child is tearing apart her room at this very moment) but I wanted to take a minute and tell everyone how we're doing. We love love love love the York Pennsylvania area. It is beautiful here, and aside from getting over two feet of snow (which no one in this area is ever prepared for) it has been an amazing couple of months. We love our apartment and I almost have it exactly as I want it. As soon as it's clean I will post pictures for all of you. But since I know you mostly check this blog to see Peyton I've attached pictures from this morning. She's running around everywhere and is discovering (or perfecting, I haven't quite decided yet) her mischievous side. We love you all!
