The only difference between this new generation's team compared to the McCarthy's of old ... is that this team is winning. My Fair Lady: Amanda McCarty debuts in the MJCA play, My Fair Lady, and has a whopping 8 lines. While upset over the number of lines, Amanda was quoted as saying, "Hey, I get to dance with some hottie ... so that has to count for something." Since this is a Baptist school, and dancing is not allowed, the scene will now call for marching. Home Improvement: The Grand Rapids McCartys are undertaking some home improvements. Soon, a store will install carpenting in the living room and laminate flooring in the kitchen. But, first, the McCartys painted the living room themselves. The paint job came out fine. As a public service, Mike offers some painting tips based on trial and error: 1. Do not try to paint a wall and watch the Red Wings at the same time. 2. Do not try to answer the phone after trying to rub out bad brush strokes with your hands. 3. After hitting your head on a soffit, sit down for a few minutes if you see more than one paint brush in your hand. 4. After you are done, do not say, "Boy, that's a nice brown and white paint job." Instead, say, "Boy, that's a nice sand fossil and china white paint job." Dancing, Dancing, I'm a Dancing Machine: Lauren McCarty was awarded "Most Dedicated" on the Lebanon High School Dance team as the team took 7th place at this year's dance competition held in Gatlinburg, TN. |
