PETE SEEGER

I don't usually cry while watching David Letterman but watching Pete Seeger preaching a sing-a-long sermon at the age of 89 about optimism and creating change was unexpectedly powerful and much needed.

The Big Game

Hurtados are historically sports-illiterate, we were/are a bunch of sissy choir people. One day Sam's uncle Lonnie introduced him to the pigskin and now Sam loves all sports. His nickname is el sporto (spanglish for "the Sport").



Lonnie you will be happy to know that we attended theUtes v.s. Oregon State game and had a great time seeing the Utes win in overtime (thanks for coming with us Warzacks). How about that 2 point conversion?! Stella was a bit squirmy and I had to go up and down 200 steps a few times for three potty trips. But she displays an athletic atitude toward the potty so it was like two games in one. Every touchdown, Stellie made a touchdown too.

Go Utes!

The Glad Game

"Pollyanna's philosophy of life centers on what she calls "The Glad Game", an optimistic attitude she learned from her father. The game consists of finding something to be glad about in every situation."

I have allowed myself 7 minutes to write this post. Last night at about 2 AM I heard a banging sound and looked out the window to see people breaking into one of our tenants cars. I soon found out that they had already smashed our car window and rummaged through our stuff too. I mentioned funk in the fridge a post or two ago but I haven't really delved into the funk that I have been in for the last several months, more of a black hole really. Luckily Laura saved the day. As we stood outside in bare feet filing a police report and realized that nothing was missing from our car (our iPod and a spare car key were in the car), she said, "at least they didn't take anything." The moonlight wrapped a glow around her smiling face and I swear she looked just like Haylee Mills in Pollyanna talking about crutches and having legs or something. Seriously folks, we had a good laugh and had to replace a window today, big deal! Pretty soon the whole town is going to come over and get me outta bed and a musical will be playing in our front yard. Feel free to stop by.
