Katie's "What The Blog?"

Tamika Jones (you know, James Jones wife) texted me this picture of Little James, who we like to call Lightning.  How adorable is he???  He is getting so big!!!  Don't you just want to squish his cheeks???

Add this woman on to the list that Maino thinks is incredibly good looking.  This is Lisa Robin Kelly.  She played Laurie Foreman on That 70's Show.  Obviously she has had a succesful post career after the show was canceled.

This is when I "attempted" to get hypnotized...yeah didn't work...

Here is us with TJ Miller- we had a blast with him on the air the other day.  Love him!

Jim Carrey's daughter was on American Idol last night.  She made it through to Hollywood- do you think she was good enough?  I will have to see in Hollywood week if she deserved it :)

Kudos to her for being able to express how we were all feeling...I do not judge.

Well since Fantasy Football has ended for the year (which I did quite a good showing for first year, if you ask me).  Football hasn't had the same excitement for me these last two weeks.  SO to make up for it, Average Joe and I put together a friendly wager for the games this weekend.  Yes I am admitting it- I am on the Tebow Train and yes I am picking Denver.  I will never bet against baby jesus.  Here is the rest of our bet....

I seriously can not get enough of this guy!  You know that band you feel like you "discovered" in college, and it is a band you remain loyal to for the rest of your life, just because of the reminder of that time in your life.  Well that is why I love Gavin DeGraw so much!  He performed on Ellen the other day and totally nailed it.  I am determined to meet this man one day!  Otis- get on it :)

Merry Christmas Everyone!  Here is a picture of our presents from our homemade gift exchange! 

Katie made coasters and cinammon butter (similar to the butter at Texas Roadhouse)

Murphy made a bottle of Baileys for us

Maino made the birdhouses.

Merry Christmas!

This cracks me up...Every time!

Murphy was telling us a story this morning about how Coke is pulling their holiday cans this year.  Everyone knows coke and their love of the polar bears, so to go along with that, they made their coke cans white.  I made the comment that I saw the Holiday can in a cooler, and due to its color assumed it was a Diet Coke, not a Coke.  He thought this was ridiculous.  How do you confuse a silver can with a white can?  I showed him a picture.  He then said, well one says Coke, and one says Diet Coke.  Let me ask you this- you are at a holiday party and reach into a cooler of ice and soda.  Could you find yourself accidentally grabbing the Coke can instead of Diet Coke because we are so used to Diet Coke being silver?  You guys decide.  Could you easily mistake these two?

This Thanksgiving we are gonna scale things down a bit.  Since I work every thanksgiving it makes planning things a little more complicated.  Last year we attempted to make it to West Allis for the day.  It was ridiculous.  I got up at 5 am to work the turkey trot, then picked up the Diesel and headed to "Stally for the afternoon.  Well, we didn't even make it there until the afternoon.  We were lucky if we were there for three hours.  Since I worked the morning show the next day I had to leave somewhat early to make the two hour drive back home.  Well, Michael stayed the night in West Allis without me.  I drove back the next morning.  So essentially I drove to and from Milwaukee twice in less than a 24 hour period.  Never again. 

This year we decided with the game we would make things pretty chill and I couldn't be more excited.  I am going to work the turkey trot, and then make it home to grill out for the game.  You would think we were grilling turkey, but not so much.  I tried to talk Michael into grilling turkey legs, but neither of us even likes turkey (unless on a sandwich) so it was a battle not worth fighting.  So instead we are going to celebrate with steaks.  We are major carnivores, so this is going to be perfect!  Steaks on the grill, packers on tv, and maybe and mgd 64 in hand :)  What are you guys doing that is not the norm for the holidays this year?
