Lord, please help us find a cure so I can give my feet a rest.

39 miles. 2 Days.

Keep me, Mamma Vaughan, and Cafferty in your thoughts.

The Niece Quin-something

I was feeling pretty lucky, and smart this week. Last Thursday, my two nieces became 3 when Ashtyn Grace was born to the HSF's brother & sister in law. We went to the hospital to see her, and I officially held my youngest baby ever. Ironically, Ashtyn usurped my previous youngest baby to hold, Ashton Lee. Crazy. Anyway, I knew that we were supposed to find out the sex of my next niece/nephew this week, and I kept commenting how cool would it be to hit the niece quinella. In my mind a quinella bet in horseracing was when you picked the top four finishers in any order, and I really thought I was being very clever. Get it? 4 nieces? A quinella? Yeah turns out I'm a moron. That's not what a quinella is at all. Worse yet, I think I might have been calling it a "quintella". No wonder everyone was confused when I kept commenting on it. Silly me just thought it was my superior intellect. Worse yet, McD worked at a horsetrack when we were in college, and she never once thought to correct her moronic friend. Thanks.

Well whatever it is, I hit it. Because in August the Halfstreet's 3 nieces will become 4! Hoorah for little girls! I'm pleased as punch, because let's be honest, I'm starting to get this "Tia to little girls" thing down pat.

Here's a picture of me holding niece #3 Ashtyn. What a cutie.

Dance Dance Dance!

I know you guys are dying for Vegas stories, and I promise they will come. But I'm waiting for some pictures to illustrate the story, and I have some other business to attend to in the mean time.

I'm dying for some suggestions for our DJ, and who better to turn to than you guys? Certainly the Halfstreet readers have attended a wedding or two in your day (ha, or 100). Give me 2 songs that absolutely get you on the dance floor, or that it's just not a wedding without. Feel free to give me more, like I said, I'm struggling. Ready...GO!
