Homemaking with Calamity Jane :)
"The pies and cakes
A woman makes
Can make a feller tell her
That he loves her very much
So never underestimate a woman's touch!" :D
"I Love You Two" :)
Aw, this is such a sweet song- one of my favorites from "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang"! :)Watch it here:

Charlotte Church - The Prayer (with Josh Groban)
Hey everybody~ This is one of my new favorite songs! Awhile back The King's Daughter showed this to me and said that someday she'd like it at her wedding! Agree that it is a beautiful song- only I think that Josh Groban and Charlotte Church are the only pair that could do it this well! :D Enjoy this amazing song! It is so sweet! :) I posted the lyrics below!
I pray you'll be our eyes
And watch us where we go,
And help us to be wise
in times when we don't know
Let this be our prayer
As we go our way
Lead us to a place,
Guide us with Your Grace,
To a place where we'll be safe.
La luce che tu dai
I pray we'll find Your light
Nl cuore restera
And hold it in our hearts
A ricordarci che
When the stars go out each night
L'eterna stella sei
Nella mia preghiera
Let this be our prayer
Quanta fede c'e
When shadows ill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith, so we'll be safe
Sognamo un mondo senza piu violenza
Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace, di fraternita
La forza che ci dai
We ask that life be kind
E' il desiderio che
And watch us from above
Ognuno trovi amore
We hope each soul will find
Intorno e dentro se
Another soul to love
Let his be our prayer
(Let this be our prayer)
Just like every child
(Just like every child)
Needs to find a place
Guide us with Your gace
Give us faith, so we'll be safe
E la fede che
Hai acceso in noi
Sento che ci salvera

"The Ballet of The Faun" You've got to see this! :P
Answer: Well, you will soon see.
Now I have two disclaimers:
1. Daniel needs to come home. Our humor is becoming cheaper than ever. Not so witty. More....like this video! ;) I'm teasing- we are having good times, and we all thought this was pretty funny! :)
2. The singing- I, Rachel, am the star of this film. I did the dancing, and the singing too. You must understand that I was half-choking with laughter and I forgot the tune to some of the last song, so it sounds naturally...funny! So don't take this as a sample of my singing voice PLEASE! :D Sarah did the filming, so she has all the credit for the second half of the title. The stage, by-the-by,was Daisy's milking stand. The lovely green curtain was my blouse. :)
Now sit back, and enjoy this video entitled: "The Ballet of The Faun: Viewed from eye-level with the stage" ;)
Well, there you have our brief masterpiece. Pretty entertaining for a spur-of-the-moment show, don't you agree? :) -Rachel
The Corries A' The Blue Bonnets
"Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all other countries because you were born in it." -George Bernard Shaw
While my reasons for my patriotism are much deeper, this certainly is a part of it! Daniel and I believe that our bonny Stars and Stripes make up the most glorious flag of any country! And our fife and drums inspire me with a wonderful swelling of pride for my country that makes me want to sign up for the colonial army! ;) So far nothing can rival that for rousing my patriotism! But below is something that convinces me I have Scotch blood! (even if that is unproved! ;) This makes me want to get a sword and wear a plaid and go tramping through the heather speaking with a thick brogue! What do you think of it? -Rachel
p.s. I love this video, but some of the others done by this group aren't so great!
