Michael Jackson Tribute + Farrah

By now the whole world knows about Michael Jackson's death. The "King of Pop" was part of quite a few generations so his passing has been quite dramatic for many, many people. DAn and I included remember many "favorite" songs and have a hard time coming up with one favorite. We finally narrowed it down with Dan's being "Billy Jean" and mine (yes, I know I should have been a teenager in the 70;s) "Don't Stop til you Get Enough". Here's a video promoting him from back in 04, but includes many of his hit songs. May he rest in peace......



Who can forget Farrah as well......although I did not grow up with Farrah Fawcett I do remember her as idolized at my Grandparent's house. My uncle Jeff left behind his insulated Farrah drinking glasses in Mayville when he left home. The crazy thing is that he's now in his mid-40's and they are STILL THERE in Marlan and Barbara's kitchen cupboards. You open them and you either have coffee cups, regular drinking glasses, pink plastic juice glasses, or Farrah to chose from. So as to not leave her out in anyway and in honor of her as well here is the actual picture that is on our drinking glasses.

Random Thoughts From the Dornfelds

-Did you hear we are only making 1, COUNT THAT, 1 mortgage payment starting this month...yahooooo!!!!!!!
-This means we'll look for a new car for Dan hopefully this fall, and I can now get started in the process of applying for my masters!
-Our old Mandan house is BACK on the market...NO, we did NOT look up the pictures to see "what they've done with the place"!
-OK, so we did, but besides that point and not to be decor nazis or anything, but when we saw they painted our old bedroom PURPLE (for those that like purple it was a little girly purple thing going on) we both cringed....
-Is that weird that it's hard to see your old bedroom not in the way you left it?
-If we were decor nazi's I think we'd burn it and start from scratch!
-Dan Synod Assembled this past weekend and I joined him for a small part of it. That was enough for me! I concentrated most on teaching Paul (fellow church member) how to set up iTAP on his phone so he could text faster. After it took him 5 minutes to text "talking about sex with 600 of my closest friends" we thought we should help him out....."This Rocks" he texted me in nanoseconds!
-By the way....the topic at Synod Assembly was sexuality....Paul doesn't ususally talk about sex with 600 other people on a regular basis:)
-When Riker's adopted family came to pick him up yesterday I felt like a mother who brings her outgoing child to Kindergarten on the first day. As soon as he figured out it was Randy(teenage girl) and that Randy=lots of love and my friend Bullet, he dropped his I'm scared routine and was "nuts" about getting to go with them. He barely even said goodbye wagging his tail all of the way to the car. I wanted to cry, well almost....but I didn't! But it crossed my mind. Someone put a "sucker" sticker on my forehead please!
-We're tired and lazy right now. We worked in the yard today (for the first time in the hot sun) and we can't move! We should be packing!
-We get to go to Wisconsin tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait to get there...see everyone soon!

April Rose Blog

I know there were only a few of you that saw my post about the little baby that would probably only live a few short hours after birth. Well, lo and behold it turned out ot be a hoax. Craziness! I even read her blog for about a week and prayed for this girl. Now, I guess it will be praying for her in a different way. Here's an article about this story if you are interested.

Favorite Song of Summer 09

He loves me when I'm right, he loves me when I'm wrong, he loves me when I waste my time writing silly songs! Hey! Jesus is a friend of mine!

Lacee shared this video with us the other day.......thought we'd share. It brought tears to our eyes!

Wowzers!

Apparently this guys is going to jail for murder.....I beg to differ. I'm thinking it might be his hair. What do you think?

We've Made Some Changes to the House and our Blog

We've moved around some furniture at our house....thought you might like to check it out. I couldn't stand to walk by Suki's room and not see her there sitting on the bed. So, we both agree to switch around the furniture. If you've never been to our house then I guess you can see some of our house! I've also included a photo of our newly furnished basement! If you get our posts by email check out our actual site to see our new blog. He got a facelift!
