What's in a Name?

People may not know why we chose the name "Carnny Confessions" for our blog. The name Carnny is a hollywoodized version of Carl's name and my name (Jenny). Our friend Kirstin came up with the name during a brainstorming session.

As for the second part of our name, confessions... We thought the word would flow well with Carnny and be very telling of some of Carl's more witty actions and comments. I have a lot to confess, but I do that kind of confession on my other blog... Carl on the other hand let's the wit flow, and sometimes that in itself leads to a confession. For example, while enjoying our champagne breakfast after the balloon flight, Carl asked me if I would like to see some of the video footage he took. I said yes. Instead of pulling our the Flip Video camera, he pulled out a pill bottle. I instantly asked what I was saying yes to, exactly with a sure face full of confusion. He laughed and asked if I was expecting a ring. Yes, he got a smack for that one. He'll do anything to make me blush.... and that leads to a need for confessions.

So now you all know how and why our blog came to be named.
