Under Where?

We have been listening to 2 new music albums. One is pretty and edifying and one is just pretty fun.

The beautiful one is "Psalm 119 In Song", written and composed by Susie Kimbrough.

We love it, it is easy to listen to and maybe by next year we will have the whole Psalm memorized without even working on it!

The other CD we got in the mail today and we have spent the afternoon laughing our way through it. Before I tell the name of the CD Iwill say that a couple of years ago some friends bought the kids the album called "Slugs, Bugs and Lullabies"They loved it . Then they received  "A Slugs and Bugs Christmas". Loved that one too. They are on the silly side, but my kids are just the right age for this music. Close to Thanksgiving  the Christmas CD died a terrible death and while we were looking online for how to reorder it we saw that there was a new album. Called "Under Where?"  We could not believe it. My kids thought they invented that game! Where they tell someone to look under something but mumble at the end of their sentence so the person says, "Under WHERE?" And then everyone explodes with laughter except for the sheepish person who said it, who then immediately begins his own quest to make someone else accidentally say "Under WHERE"? Hilarious. Close relative to but a little more grown up than the game where poop, potty, bathroom and bottom are inserted randomly into conversation and everyone laughs like hyenas.  Nice to find a songwriter who gets their sense of humor. So we ordered "Under Where". Please note that it really isn't about underwear.  That song is just a little piece of it. All three of these CD's are a good mixture of pointing kids to the Lord and good family fun.
