Waiting long hours for a connecting flight, or a delayed one, can be frustrating and tiresome. But, with the right company, it can be fun as well.
Flight attendant Kari Mann was talking to passengers after the plane was delayed on the tarmac for maintenance and realized they had a barbershop quartet on board, and since music can lighten the mood in any situation she asked them to sing something.
“I asked them to sing and most of the passengers began video taping! It was such a great moment…The mood changed and our passengers were awesome for the whole 5 hours they were on the plane! One of my favorite moments!!! Thank you to Port City Sound for creating a wonderful memory!!!”

The celebs! No matter how much we love them and admire their beauty and their life style, all those stunning photos of them in which they look flawless do make some of us feel bad about ourselves. The truth is that the famous people are just ordinary people like you and I, with the difference that they have a bunch of stylists and make-up artists around them.
Well, recently, most of the Hollywood divas tend to embrace the natural beauty thus post photos of themselves with no make-up on. Stunning Christina Applegate is one of them.
She was born in the heart of the city which is the center of the film industry, and with her dad being a record producer and record company executive and her mom being an actress, it looks like it was written in the stars for Christina to become one herself.
She had her first TV appearance when she was just a year old. Along with her mom, she appeared in the soap opera Days of Our Lives. As years went by, Christina’s career took off and she became one of the most famous names in the industry.
Among the rest, she starred in Grace Kelly and Married … with Children. The latter was her big breakthrough after which she moved on to a number of other projects.
It has been said that she auditioned for the iconic role of Rose in Titanic but lost to Kate Winslet.
One of her most recent roles is the one in Dead to Me, series which aired in 2019 and is still on.
When it comes to her private life, what we know of this beautiful actress is that she is married to Dutch musician Martyn LeNoble and the two have a daughter together, Sadie Grace, who was born in 2011. Christina was married to actor Jonathon Schaech from 2001 to 2005 but divorced due to irreconcilable differences.
Not many know, but Christina is a breast cancer survivor. In 2008, she had a double mastectomy and managed to beat the horrible disease.
Today, she’s enjoying her life to the fullest and isn’t afraid to show her natural looks. Among the fancy photos of galas and events, Christina often posts photos with no make-up and we say she looks stunning.
At 49 years old, this incredible actress is defying age, don’t you agree?
Man returns to adopt the puppy he rescued – The sweet soul couldn’t be happier
Joey Wagner is the man we should all look up to when it comes to treating animals the way they deserve. This kind individual came across a dying pup that was in the worst state imaginable. He was completely hairless because he had severe skin infection and was in need of urgent medical care.
Although many people stumbled upon this poor little dog, it was Wagner who bothered enough to stop and lend a helping hand. He was quick to rush the dog whom they named Mojo to the nearest animal hospital. There, Wagner was told how Mojo’s chances of survival were slim, but he never lost hope that things could turn for the better for his rescue pal.
Despite everyone thinking Mojo wouldn’t live more than several hours, the staff at the hospital proved miracles do happen.
Mojo’s story spread around and many people were interested to adopt him.
But before answering to any of the numerous application forms they received, the hospital had something else in mind. They contacted Wagner, who stayed in touch with them through the whole process of Mojo’s recovery, and asked him whether he would like to be not only this special creature’s savior, but a forever daddy too? Needless to say, Wagner was flattered by the offer and gave a resounding yes.
The reunion between Wagner and Mojo is cute beyond words. We aren’t ashamed to say we shed a couple of tears of joy.
Mojo is now three years old and leads the life many dogs dream of. He has a best furry pal and enjoys his days knowing he’s loved.
The way Mojo entered his human daddy’s life is incredible. We hope more people would do what Wagner did for animals in need.
Baby girl placed in a plastic bag and abandoned in the woods found alive – Thousands want to adopt her
Three teenage girls were hiking in the woods near their Forsyth County home when they heard strange noises. They weren’t really sure what animal could be making those unusual sounds that resembled baby’s crying.
In the next moment, they looked at each other as though they wondered whether there was a chance for a baby to be there in the middle of the woods. No matter how strange that sounded, they still decided to call their dad for help. And that was the best decision they could ever make.
When their dad, Alan Ragatz, came, he was shocked by the sight. He found a little baby with its umbilical cord still untouched left in a plastic beg.
The little girl was just a few hours old and if it wasn’t for Alan and his girls, she wouldn’t have made it.

Speaking of that faithful day, Kayla, one of Alan’s daughters said, “(We) grabbed our flashlights and we’re driving around and we’re, like, ‘That doesn’t sound like an animal.'”
When they told Alan how they suspected they heard cries of a baby, he recalls answering, “That’s got to be impossible. It’s a baby raccoon, deer or something.”
But his daughters were right, and thank God they acted quickly and helped save the tiny baby’s life.
“We went down, pulled it up. There was a poor little baby wrapped in a plastic bag, and we called 911,” Alan added. “She was alive. She was crying, so we figured that was a good sign. Could have been worse. The credit goes to my girls. They were the ones sticking with it.”
Authorities were alerted and the baby was taken at a safe place were she was given the appropriate help and care.
“It is, without doubt, divine intervention that this child was found. If it wasn’t for these citizens, we would be having a different conversation,” said Sheriff Ron Freeman and thanked the Ragatz family for what they did.
The survival of the baby whom they named India was a real miracle and “an act of God” as despite the way she was dumped by her mom, she didn’t suffer any injuries.
Cute India’s story spread around and many were interested in adopting her. In fact, more than a thousand people were willing to offer her the home her biological parents didn’t give her. Tom Rawlings, director of the state Division of Family and Children Services says, “We’ve had, literally, thousands of people across the country and other parts of North America come forward wanting to adopt Baby India.”
Luckily, princess India is now doing great and is eagerly waiting to meet her new mommy and daddy. “She’s gaining weight and smiling a lot. She’s an easy baby who loves to be held and sung to, and she’s overall thriving now,” Rawlings added.
As for now, the whole country is sending their love and their best wishes to the little heroine who wouldn’t stop fighting for her life and did her best for her cries for help to be heard.

This is one of the most memorable scenes from the holiday classic “White Christmas”
Do you remember White Christmas? It is a holiday musical from 1954 which centers around a group of entertainers who want to spread the Christmas spirit and the magic of the holiday in Vermont inn during the World War II.
Over the course of the years, this movie became a classic that many return to each and every Christmas. It produced some iconic songs such as The Best Things Happen While You’re Dancing and What Can You Do With a General?
The cast consisted of some of the greatest names of that time, Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney, Vera-Ellen, and Dean Jagger. Another song that was widely introduced through the movie is that of the same name as the title, White Christmas.
This tune and the lyrics, written by Irving Berlin some years before it was performed in the musical film Holiday Inn released in 1942, speak of an old-fashion Christmas setting. So, unlike the popular opinion, the iconic song wasn’t written for the movie White Christmas. In fact, Berlin won an Academy Award for Best Original Song for its rendition for Holiday Inn.
Performed by Bing Crosby, the song became the world’s best-selling single of all time.
One of the most memorable scenes from the movie, besides the one in which Crosby belts out White Christmas, is the one in which veterans of the 151st Division are invited to Vermont on Christmas Eve to greet their general. Listening to them singing Old Man still gives goosebumps to many.
Couple converts old truck into a mobile home and it looks way better than most apartments
Who says that your dream home should cost an arm and a leg? Apparently, all you need in order to have the perfect place for living is an adventurous spirit and a desire to commit yourself to making it the world’s coziest place.
Martin and Iona are a couple that enjoys being on the road. The two have jobs that require from them to be outdoors so they came up with the most brilliant idea. Actually, they first though of purchasing a ‘traveling house’ one night after having a few beers, and it appeared the idea stick with them even after the hangover, so they put their mind into buying “a big American RV” they would turn into their new home.
They were lucky to stumble upon exactly what they were looking for, so they ended up purchasing the truck from eBay for approximately $4,670. What was once used for bread delivery was about to become a comfortable place that wowed everyone who got to see it.
Martin did most of the labouring and Iona took care of the interior design. This stylish home took 4 months to be completely renovated and it’s indeed something special. Now, they are enjoying their beautiful house on wheels and mountain views in France.
Meet Iona Stewart and Martin Hill – a couple from Nottingham who are both keen snowboarders.
Recently, the travelling couple decided to buy an old Hovis delivery truck they could use both for travelling and living.
They bought it on Ebay for a mere £3,600 (approximately $4,670).
The renovation cost them £20,000 (about $25,900).
This is what the renewed truck looks like. Martin and Iona plan on living in it and saving money on accommodation while traveling through Europe.
Although from the outside, it doesn’t look anything special…
…the inside of the truck has been transformed into a cozy and comfortable home.
The house is fully furnished and has everything you might need.
While Martin did most of the labouring, Iona designed the interior of the truck.
“About four years ago after a few too many beers I thought about buying a big American RV” – Martin said.
“We bought the lorry in May this year. We spent four months working on it full-time.”
“We are really lucky to not have to work and we did everything ourselves.”
“It’s amazing what you can do. We are not exactly slumming it”
The couple even designed the place on two different levels
Looking at the bedroom, it is furnished with a double bed and stylish furniture.
The storage space has been carefully planned so that the two young travelers can fit all their belongings there.
This is the shower room of the truck, where the couple are now living.
The space inside the truck is separated by doors to make it cozy and practical.
The couple’s home is full of little stylish and artistic details.
Iona and Martin are currently in France, enjoying the views of the mountains.
They have no plans to return to the United Kingdom just yet, and intend to continue travelling.
What do you think of this couple’s place? Would you consider living here?

Weddings are those special days when all the family and friends celebrate the love between two people who vow to commit to one another forever. From what’s been said, it’s obvious that the bride and the groom are the stars of their wedding, but it looks like that’s not always the case.
Just take a look at the video below. It was taken some 11 years ago, so the little guy named Ryan who stole the show at a Glasgow wedding is a teenager already, but this video of him is so cute that people can’t help but watch it over and over again.
Namely, Ryan is wearing a traditional Scottish clothing, a kilt, and looks incredibly cute. Once the music starts, this sweetie can’t help but move to the rhythm. Assuming he’s around 2 years old in the video, dancing using only his little arms and legs is more than enough for us to see he’s a true talent. As he notices the guests are watching him and smiling, he decides to move his body as well, though just occasionally.
Up until this day, the video of Ryan has been seen over 2.5 million times and once you check it out, you’ll see why.
Parents show the upside of having kids with Down Syndrome by sharing incredibly beautiful photos of their twins
Being different means being unique, and parents Julie and Dan McConnel know how to accept and cherish uniqueness in a way that steals hearts around the world. When they learned they were going to be a mom and a dad again, they were over the moon. Holding their bundle of joy in their hands was something they were eagerly looking forward to. But God is great, and he gave these two amazing people two reasons to love life; they were about to welcome twin boys.
What’s most, he gave them two sweet little angels with an extra chromosome. This made their sons Milo and Charlie truly exceptional, because fraternal twins with Down syndrome are said to be 1-in-14 million cases.
Having kids with this condition could be challenging, and Julie and Dan were aware of that so they pondered over the thought of giving them up for adoption especially because they already had four children. But now, seeing the sweet boys grow, they are glad they decided to take the journey which now resembles the sweetest and most colorful adventure. Their boys are loved not only by their family, but people from all around the country, as they are true internet sensation.
These parents were perfectly aware of all the stigmas attached to people with Down Syndrome. However, the reality is that these people only share similar facial features, but their character and personality are completely different. And Charlie and Milo’s mom and dad were determined to show that to the world. How they do it? Using social media. And they do it amazingly.
“My hope is to attract families that are receiving a diagnosis of Down syndrome for their child because that can be really scary. I hope that people will find us, and see that this is what life can be like,” Julie told WTSP 10 News.
“It can be fun, it’s full of love, it’s not scary. We have no regrets, and there is so much joy in our lives, and I hope that people will see that.”
The McConnels are doing their best to educate other parents of children with Down’s of all the challenges that may come along the way and how to cope with them in the best way possible.
“It takes them a little longer to meet milestones, but when they meet goals we celebrate like no other parents alive,” she said. “We throw a party and we’re so excited for them when they accomplish those things.”
“It’s big to show everyone else that we are here, and there are all these kids in our community, and we hope that they will see us and remember us and that things will continue to change in our communities with lots of acceptance,” Dan said.
“We’re standing on the shoulders of other parents that have paved the way for all these things to happen and it’s an exciting time to have a child with Down syndrome,” Julie added. “I want to see them grow up and do whatever they want to do.”
We do hope these amazing parents would succeed in their attention to raise awareness about the children with Down’s, so people would finally understand they are no different than any other kid in the way they bring joy to their families.
So forget about the stares, and don’t ever say sorry to a parent when you learn they have a kid with this syndrome, because honestly, there is nothing to be sorry about.
These parents’ story may convince other parents to-be who are considering giving their babies with Down’s for adoption to change their mind.
