Music to Our Ears - Tag!

I love music! Music is the best thing ever! There is a song for everything, every mood, every emotion, every feeling. Music that makes you feel like dancing, music that is inspiring, music that makes you cry, happy music, sad music, music that makes you want to belt out the words at the top of your lungs etc...you name it - it is out there for our ears and enjoyment.

OK, so my good friend told me that her favorite song right now is Dream Big by Ryan Shuppe.

Well I hadn't even heard of it so I of course had to go to my music and listen to it. I happen to love it too...(should be playing right now).

Please leave a comment on my blog and tell me what your favorite song is. I have many favorites and it depends on my mood at the moment, so I am going to have to think a bit on my favorite song right now. Share yours with me! You can post on your blog also for others to share their favorite song. You are now tagged.

Thanks...this will be fun!

Family Photo Shoot

We had a family picture session at Sundance. Although I don't like to be in any picture's myself (I am really self conscience of how I look these days) I love how they turned out.

Tiffany with Follow Your Art Photography did a great job and took some beautiful shots.

I love my family!

More to Come

Little Ali

Yesterday Ali called me at work like she does every day when she gets home from school. I look forward to that phone call and expect it at the same exact time.

This time I answered and she sounded just fine at first, then she said with a really crackly voice. Mom, ...then really started to cry...I said yeah, what's wrong?? She said, I am really sorry about this morning when you told me to keep my pants pulled up and I snapped at you (all broken up with sobs). I said, Ali, don't worry about that why are you crying about that? She said well I am just really worried that I hurt your feelings...lots more sobbing.

Just then I heard Dave open her bedroom door, Why are you crying?? What is going on? Ali why are you crying? She didn't want to tell dad and he wasn't letting up so I told her to let me talk to him and I would talk to her again after.

I told him that this morning I had tightened her pants with those buttons the pants come with cause the waist was too big. Her pants I have to buy big because she needs the length but her waist is so small that the pants never are the right size in the waist. Well I had them too tight and they were pinching her. So I loosened them, I must have too much cause when she hopped out of the car to walk in the school, her pants dropped a little. I just said, pull your pants up, try to keep them up today. She turned around and Yelled..WELL I WOULD IF THEY WEREN'T TOO BIG!! Dave giggled that she was so upset for that.

I spoke with Ali again and she was fine. I just loved that she would call me to tell me she was sorry, and she is such a thoughtful girl about everything. Especially to recognize when she makes a mistake and wants to correct it.
