A NEW CHAPTER

10:15 AM Wed, Oct 31, 2007 |

I can't think of many things in life that bring everything in to focus like the birth of a child. Ginger is one week old today, and we just marvel at her and thank God for this blessing. Her mom, brother and sister are doing well, and we couldn't be happier!

Thanks to all of you who've emailed about Ginge...

She's here!!! Marc just called and his beautiful baby girl has finally arrived.
He and his wife Michelle had baby Ginger Grace Cox at 7 o'clock this morning. She weighs 7.13 lbs and is 21 inches long. Does she not look like the perfect child?

She will have a lot of loving people to welcome her home. ...



Best Food in Town

Virginia

I have the honor of emceeing a wonderful event tonight. At least 30 of the top chefs in St Louis will be at the Ritz Carlton tonight letting people try their food and some will auction off private dinners and parties to the highest bidders.
It's called the March of Dimes Signature Auction. All the proceeds go towards March of Dimes' research on premature births.
I never knew how common premature births are until I got involved wit...

I may be gone soon. I sketched this on my lunch break...and the way things are going in schools these days, a suspension may be in order :( Read here about the death of common sense!

ON A BRIGHTER NOTE...



Sweet Victory

Virginia

Oh my goodness. That was the best Alabama game I have seen in a long time. We smoked the Vols 41-17. The last time we annihilated Tennessee was in 1986.
I went to my internet buddy's house (read entry below). We have been emailing for weeks but never even spoke on the phone. As soon as she opened the door I recognized her. It turns out we went on a double Homecoming date our junior year in high school. She and her husband are so nice and...



New/Old Friend

This is exciting. A viewer emailed be several few weeks ago to let me know that she was a Tide fan, too, and she too is from Birmingham. I don't think she planned on me emailing her back, but I did.
Turns out, we were at the University of Alabama at the same time, we have common friends from high school AND we went to summer camp together. I even remember the name of the horse she was riding during horseback session when I was nine. I a...

Back From Bama

I had a great time at home this weekend. I got to see my sister Natalie. I love her even though she is an Auburn fan.

Me and my sister

Friday night we had a "cook out." Apparently, mid westerners don't know what that is.
My friend Michael is one of them. I took him to his first Bama game an...



CH-CH-CH-CHANGES....

We've been getting some questions about the recent changes to News 4 This Morning, so I thought I should address some of those. On Monday we moved our starting time each morning to 5 am, and the newscast runs straight through until 7 am each morning. We made this change in part be...



Stage Fright

Virginia

Here's my update on that "Dancing with St Louis Stars" dance competition. I am in serious trouble. I haven't been to practice in over two weeks. The last time I was there I tried on the loin cloth that my dance partner refers to as a costume and he added a lift to our routine.
Yeah right! I am not wearing a freaking bathing suit for a dress while he tries to twirl me up in the air. I watched Dancing with the Real Stars last night. Jenni...



House Call

11:41 AM Mon, Oct 01, 2007 |
Virginia

It is official. I must go down to T Town to see what is going on with my Crimson Tide.
It was one thing to lose to Georgia, but to Florida State. The horror! And having to sit by a Kentucky fan every morning whose team is ranked 8th in the nation for the first time in more than 30 years isn't helping.
