We were on the NEWS!!

Ok, you TOTALLY wouldn't see us, if I didn't tell you...but still!!

So...I am in the choir that is singing(you can't see me at all)...and Emma and my Mom, are in the front row middle. You can see them when they do a shot of the Sterling and Jackie, the piano player. Emma is on my Mom's lap, she stands out a bit, cuz her legs are dangling. And they are just over Sterling's shoulder.



Disclaimer: I'm supposed to tell you, to stop watching after our story, it keeps going...to nonsence...

Oh, and if you are new friend to me...I LOVE being on TV!! I am SUCH a geek. I have been on several times, again...being a geek. My first time, was in 1988. Matt Lauer was hosting a local talk show, in Boston, and they had a contest to go with Matt, to a Barry Manilow concert. I won tickets, being in the studio audience, and then got to go on the show the next day, and tell about our date with Matt, and review the concert. Then when Matt started on the Today show, I knew SOMEDAY, I had to make a poster, and take it to the show. So...when they were here for the Olympics, I did just that. I saved the poster, or so I thought. If I find it, I'll be sure to take a picture and post it. It said..."I went on a date, with Matt in '88" And I put pictures of us at the concert, on it. He saw it, and came over. He said he remembered. I doubt it, but it was nice of him anyway! So of course, I was on TV then.

Then, when they dedicated the Boston Temple, I was there, and saw a reporter from Salt Lake, so I stopped to talk to her, told her I was from Salt Lake, and of course she had to interview me. ;) So that was funny. I was in Boston, and on TV at home! heehee

Then just after Emma was born, CH 2 had a 2News Idol. And I was a finalist. SO I got to sing on the morning news. THAT was way fun! I didn't win. I was WAY to frumpy, and Mom-ish to win.

I've been in the background more times than I can recount, and lots with the choir.

So there you have it. I like to say I have been famous for about an hour... you know, 15 minutes of fame...a few times!???

I don't think I have ever been on t.v, Carl * Kade were for the NICU reunion and Kylie was for soccer camp but that's about as far as we go. Of course I would run away from a camera, not towards it. Silly you! :)

You crack me up. I could see Emma sitting on your mothers lap! My kids are singing at the capital tomorrow at noon, they are so excited. I am going as a chaperone! How is it that I never knew you enjoyed being on TV? I am glad you are still singing, I know how much you love it.
