Deep Deep DEEP down under the paint is a butterfly

It has begun. The boys have been visiting the cats at the local SPCA. I don't want another cat right away and Mike said he didn't want another cat right away....but they those two are, visiting the SPCA. The cat that Mike liked the most had been adopted when they visited today. Kiernan wanted every cat they saw. Amazingly enough, they came home kitty-less.

What happened to waiting!? Kiernan said he wanted to get a new cat on the anniversary of the date we got Zool (August 5th) and even that sounded too soon.

I suggested that Mike consider adopting two so they can keep each other company. He smiled and said, "They are having an adopt 2 for 1 sale right now." *sigh*

Jack's Big Music Show

If you have kids, you can't go wrong with "Jack's Big Music Show" (unless of course they just aren't into puppets). Lexy is on the fence about puppets. Sometimes she's really into it and something she could care less. Now me on the otherhand, I just love this show. Last summer we taped every new episode and I saw some AMAZING performances (Mel's Super Swell Dance Party YIPPEE!)

There wasn't much on the other day but we were waiting for a show she does like to come and lo and behold, there was Jack so I clicked on it. Jack had accidently broke his best friend Mary's new hammer dulcimer. Jack, Mary and Jack's dog Mel were standing over this broken hammer dulcimer and it went into a "music video." That's what Jack's Big Music Show is about, the videos of artists playing their music and little kids dancing around them. Trust me, it's cute.

Sorry, where was I? Broken hammer dulcimer. So on comes the music video and my head just snapped around from where I was. AMAAAAAZING music was coming from the screen. I'm so getting their album.

http://www.noggin.com/shows/jacks.php You'll see a video playing from Laurie Berkner (another album I now own because of this show) but click on the video second from the left. It's two black guys with a violin. They are called "Nuttin but Stringz" and the song is "Thunder."

The demo song on their website is also awesome
