57, 67 Chevys and ukelele's

Cade is in love with a song he heard in the movie Bridge to Terbithia. Somehow we found the original version of "Someday" by Steve Earle. He loves this song. LOVES it.

Hes taken to surfing youtube for Steve Earle singing the song or someone else singing the song. His favorite verison of the moment is some guy who calls himself "the robba". This guys remixed the song and psuedo raps the lyrics. See below if your curious.



In route to watching for the umpteenth time a version of someday, Cade happened across this video below. Turns out there seems to be a subculture of ukelele playing people on youtube recording cover songs and originals. It's really pretty cool.

Turkeys N' the Hood

Lately, Cade has taken to being an early riser. Too early in fact- especially since his favorite (and required) early AM play parent is yours truely. So, lately this means I too am an early riser.

Anyway, to the mini story: This morning Cade was up early playing and generally being a super guy. He walked over to our front window and said, "Hey! There go those chickens." Brian and I both responded with, "What?". Cade stood his ground, "Look at those Chickens!."

He wasn't far from the truth. Instead of chickens there were 3 large turkeys. Hood Turkeys. Strutin' down the sidewalk in front of our house. Bri and I have seen them a couple of times on the parkway near home. But this was definitely a drip in to the hood for them. So, we threw some clothes quickly and ventured out in the rain/sleet mess we have right now for weather to find those turkeys. Sure enough they were clustered around a neighbors bird feeder. Hey, that's what a bird feeder is for right?
