Which do you like better? I can't decide... the cover's pretty similar, but there are enough differences between Mark Knopfler's and Brandon Flowers's voices that I like both songs as separate things.
It looks like Lisa Mitchell did a cover as well. I kind of love that this one is just her sitting on a couch in her pajamas (?) and she has a scrunchy on her arm, but if you just watch, you can see she gets into the music, with all her shifting and how her toes keep moving. =)

Jared's birthday
We went out for lunch and had cake for dinner. Actually, the kids had veggies and fruit, then cake. Jared and I just had cake.

if you would indulge me for a moment...
Um yeah so I'm planning out how we're going to do our 'library' thing. This is mostly for my sisters and my mom's input, but if anyone else reads this and has any advice or opinions, feel free to share!
We have 3 bookcases so far. There's a chance we could have 4, depending on how things get rearranged. I wish I could get more, but as usual, we don't have a ton of money. We do, however, have money for paint (Hallelujah.) So here's my original plan. I didn't feel like making all the angles of the room, but this is the basic idea.
So what do you think? Could I do better? I don't even own a writing desk, btw, but I'm hoping one of those sort of awesome oak, leather-topped $15 ones will come through DI again one of these days... I'm also considering painting the walls a pale, warm gray and maybe making the wall with the map and two bookcases some sort of a blue color like this:
or this:
Or should I make all three walls that blue color but let it end where the wall corners are? Do you think a different color would be better? I do want a color...
And (I'm dreaming here, I just know it) if anyone has time or the desire to do so, here's a blank room picture if you have other ideas:

sat in your lap
Just some pictures from today. Nathan is wearing his wizard's hat from preschool... it's not anything else. Except sometimes it's a megaphone. 
Rylie is holding her pink cat. She's really into cats lately. And kind of dogs, too, I'm guessing, since she growled and barked at our neighbor's dog for about five minutes straight when we went over there. Of course when I put her on the floor, she screamed bloody murder. But I guess a pug looks pretty big and scary to a 1 1/2 year old.

Rylie squeals
If you want to see more videos, including ones of us playing Cursed on New Year's Eve, go here. A Rockstar Pirate sounds much cooler than it actually is.
I'm gonna give you Christmas tree.
