Brownies take over WLOX

Cutest Brownie ever.

The girls got a tour of WLOX and then got to watch the news at 6pm LIVE!  Here are the girls in front of weatherman Mike Reader, clearly getting breaking weather news!  The girls got to see lots of neat behind the scenes spots like the make up room, editing room, and lots of historical tapes like the Katrina closet (filled with two weeks of video tape of the weeks Katrina hit and WLOX went live 24/7 for two weeks).  

Getting all settled in for the live news.  The girls were perfectly quiet, I on the other hand, got a coughing fit that sounded as if I was going to cough up a lung right on the set. I was escorted to a secret area off set where I got to watch the live news on a t.v. instead.  FAIL.  

Anchorman Jeff Lawson teasing and joking with the girls before going on air.  He was real sweet with them and talked to them during commercial breaks and even mentioned their troop during the news.

The girls with Mike Reader and Jeff Lawson.  The gentleman even stayed after the news and answered every question the girls asked.  Pretty nice considering it was their "lunch break" and they usually head home for dinner until the 10 o'clock news.  Amelia is on the far left (Mr. Reader went and got her a box to stand on so she wouldn't be so short).
