So we watched “50 First Dates” last night. Hehe I love that movie! Just love it! So funny and an adorable story. And we watched the featurettes afterwards and it helped get us pumped for Hawaii. (Not that I need help….) It was fun hearing them talk about how much fun they had filming a movie in Hawaii, and how it wasn’t even like work since they were in Hawaii, and they mentioned they had a hard time keeping their crew sober since everyone was having so much fun all the time. :) I can’t wait! oh oh oh!

And here’s the artist for the Somewhere Over the Rainbow song I was talking about:
Israel “IZ” Kamakawiwo’ole

And here’s an MP3 of the Somewhere Over the Rainbow song. It will only be on this site a short time. So download it now if you want it. :)

This week is going to go by soooooo slow. I’m so jazzed!

P.S. Happy Birthday, Patti!

    Wow, You are awesome Jack.
    I am so excited for you two. I expect details and some pics when you get back.
    When do you leave? What island? There has been a lot going on here but nothing fun and exciting like that. Just icky things like an ambulance ride, an ultra-sound and stuff like that. We really need to get together and catch up. Maybe when you get back. You two are going to have a terrific time.

    Ambulance ride?? ack! You ok??

  5. Patti says:

    Ambulance ride? Were you the main passenger?

  6. Cathy says:

    The only passenger, sorry, didn’t mean to scare you. I had a really bad asthma attack at work and they called the paramedics who gave me a breathing treatment but I was still having trouble by the time the ambulance came so they whisked me to the hospital for another treatment and more tests. I am on the mend and will fill you in on the whole story when you return from your wonderfully romantic vacation. I hope you are both over your colds by then.
