to add that extra text you have to recode the bf_navigation function in theme-functions.php (in library/functions). It might be easier to copy the generated code (in firebug) and create a static version of the navigation in header.php.

See at the bottom of this topic for how to add cufon hover color.

Do you have any advice as far as how to recode the bf_navigation function to make the extra text like in the example posted above?

Thanks

add a custom field to pages that are in the navigation with the description as value. Then in the bf_navigation where the pages are displayed (search for "($page)") you can get that information with a get_post_meta call (see any page template for example), then add that information to the page link or after the link. and you can hardcode the home description (some lines above).
