COME ON DOWN!!!!!

So Bob Barker has left the Price is Right after over 50 years and over 6,000 shows, and it is the end of an era. I am very sad to see it go. One of my earliest memories is being so excited that I had afternoon kindergarten so that I could stay home in the morning and watch the Price is Right with my mom. I had a childhood dream to get on the show and wear a cute sweatshirt from whatever college I came from and win a car and kiss Bob on the cheek. I suppose I could still go to the show but it just wouldn't be the same. Goodbye, weekdays at 11.

By the way, we are home safe and sound and it feels like we never left. I am working on some cool slide shows but it may be beyond my blogging prowess to post them on here. We shall see.

  1. I'm a huge P is R fan, too. I used to watch it at Grandma's house. I've had the very same dream of being on the price is right and spinning the big wheel. Woohoo!!!!! Do you like game shows in general, or is P is R the only one? I don't have the time to watch them much anymore, but I'm a little bit of a game show fanatic. I always play along at home and think, "Man if I were on there, I would TOTALLY win!!" =)

    Glad you're home safely. I'm sure its wonderful!!!

  2. I do have a soft spot for game shows. Nate and I like to compete when we watch jeopardy and I love the game show network. Its something I inherited from my mom. She is big on game shows too. And it is great to be home!
