American Idol Survivor...You Game?
So, here it is. Mike and I were talking yesterday saying it would be fun to have a family version of an American Idol Game. We came up with AMERICAN IDOL SURVIVORTM and this is how it works :
Starting next week, participants will pick 1 Guy and 1 Girl they think will make it to the Finals and ultimately win American Idol. Mike, or I, will post a new Blog Entry next week, and all participants must make their choices prior to the Results Show.
After that, one of us will post a new Blog Entry every week giving status reports of who got kicked off, and how that affects our game!
RULES:
IF one of your selected 2 Idols gets voted off, you lose that Idol and are down to 1 Contestant Left.
IF both of your selected 2 Idols get voted off, you are out of the contest.
The Winner will be the person who will have the Idol they chose, win it all in the Season Finale. In case of tie where multiple people have chosen 1 Idol, the tiebreaker will be how many times that person voted for their Idol, so keep a mental note and no lieing! (In order to keep this fair, there is a 5 vote max per contestant, per week)
The award for 1st Price will be determined once we all discuss a proper Prize for the winner. Maybe a night out on everyone else or something.
A Bonus Prize will be awarded to anyone who can get both of their Idol picks into the Final 2!
So, there you have it. It should be fun, as I think most of us watch it anyway. Be sure to get your picks in before next weeks Results Show!
Here is a link to the Contestants as of this week, this will change tonight as 2 guys and 2 girls get voted off, but here you go :
http://www.idolonfox.com/contestants/
And just for fun, here are my predictions as to who will be cut tonight and a link to my source image in case you would like to put pretty red X's through people like me :

HEEEEEEEEEEY! How YOU doin'?

Year of Firsts
So this year has been a busy one for Rebeca and I. Truly a year full of firsts. Caiden turned 1, had his1st Birthday Party. Savanna is almost 1, and just had her 1st Birthday Party. For the 'Wenzel Family' it is also the 1st Christmas together as a Family and the 1st in our new house. It's amazing to think of everything that has happened to us in 2005, and it is also very saddening as both of our babies are no longer 'babies'.
I was talking to Mike today about family, more specifically how I had read an article in which a Mother of 3 had lost all 3 children AND husband in the same car accident. Just like that, everyone she loved in her family was gone, never to return and the more I thought about that, and how it could happen to anyone is utterly frightening and disgusting. I won't even add our family into the equation because it is just too sickening to repeat, but if anything like that were to ever happen, to say that I would be destroyed would be a gross understatement.
Rebeca, Caiden and Savanna, I love you all more than life itself! I will ALWAYS be here to protect you, and you can always count on me for support and love.
See what your baby turning 1 does do ya? Good god, anyway, onto the good stuff!

Favorite Sayings
We all remember things our parents would say on a regular basis. Some of my favorites are:
Lord willing and the creek don't rise Meaning Everything should work out unless God smites us or something else crappy happens. :)
Who died and left you Boss? Meaning Since when do you get to tell me what to do?
Do you wanna smack? Meaning You're probably gonna get smacked no matter how you answer. Don't get clever or you get smacked twice.
Are you stupid? Meaning You're being stupid. Don't get clever or you will be asked Do you wanna smack?.

Survivor, Family edition.
The male i would most want on my team.
Im going to have to agree with renee on this one id say matt for several reasons one of course being his extensive royal rangers training, two because i think he is a team player, and three, because if i wasn't winning he would give up his spot for me. not that i would ask him to he just would :)
The male i would least want on my team.
Probably dad only because if we won a challenge and got something that the other team didnt get he would give our share to them because he would feel bad. which is great but not in survivor.
If i could pick a female to be on my team.
Id probabably pick renee because she is smart and although she may not seem very athletic if you told her she wasn't going to eat unless she moved this 300lb boulder 10ft in 1 minute she would find a way.
The female i would least want on my team.
Im going to have to say lori because if i ever had to vote her off i would feel bad so i would probably just vote for myself instead. (not a good strategy)
Who would win.
Probably Mike i think he would be the most well rounded competitor. enough heart, enough strength, and enough brains to win.
who would get voted off first.
I'll venture to say mom she would probably rather watch than play and she would be too busy taking care of everyone to really know what was going on.
Who would you not want to go up against.
In a physical challenge anyone of the guys because lets face it God made them physically stronger and i couldnt win without cheating.
in a battle of the wits i would say renee would be the most intimidating for me.
Disclaimer* because you know i have to have one. i love everyone and i would choose you all for my team if i could.:)

Secret Santa
Ok, so everyone should know how we do this, but since we have a newbie this year, CARMEN!!! woo hoo! and yes you should be excited because not everyone can be in it;) Ok, so whoever you have for secret santa this year noone can know, except matt. And if we did this right you shouldnt have matthew as your secret santa:) if you do let us know. Anyway since this is the only present we buy for on this side (except if you buy a present for mom and dad cause they are not in it) we like to spend a decent amount, its always been like $80-100..... So since we picked names on thanksgiving everyone should be either emailing there list or posting it on the blog. If you do not know who you have then you need to ask Mom she picked for the people that were not here this year. For the kid secret santa (our first year) Lori and I thought $25-30 would be good. If anyone has another idea then let me know. Merry Christmas!! ... Oh and another thing I need feed back on what day everyone wants to get together to exchange gifts? I was thinking dec. 31st which is a Saturday we always get together for new years eve anyway so I thought it would be fun to exchange then since we will all be together, we can do it at our house and everyone can spend the night if they want, we have plenty fo room..... other suggestions are welcome.
