A weekend with James

Family Time It was an unexpected surprise when I noticed James had an extra day to spend with us!  We didn't spend it running around like crazy people entertaining a beloved guest, we just spent time together, here at home. Which is what you want to do when you're out in the middle of  tour.  But this is a home James is unfamiliar with, his first taste of seeing our belongings in a new house. He was almost two the last time we moved.  Our 17th move in 18 years.  The other children remember other homes and lives, but not James, (born when they were teens and pre teens).  He wandered around for the two minutes it takes to see the house and remarked it could fit into our family room in the other house.  Haha!  True!  Exactly how we want it now.

An Old Interview Surfaced

James' big bro, Billy  Billy came across this interview online and sent it to me with a smile and a wink.  It had some pretty amusing parts.    I don't remember seeing it before.  After reading it a few mornings ago I have been pondering about this one portion...... Quote: Apart from fans, what do your families think of your music? James: My mom loves it and I don’t why, I like to think she loves it in a motherly way but I honestly will walk in on her listening to some death metal band on myspace. It’s so random and I will ask her why she’s listening to it and she’ll say “well I think they’re pretty good” (in his best female impression which gets Mike and myself in hysterics). She took to it and follows it much the same as my sister. My family never listened to music and ever since I have been doing this they have all of a sudden re-found music and me being the example they have kind of taken to this type of music.
