I wasn't reallysure what to post today...I'm not on my computer so I can't upload a bunch on new pictures.
So why not do something random???....random is good.
Random 10.
1. I will always love Davy Jones...sigh. Yesterday was very sad news to find out that Davy Jones had died.
I've always had a little bit of a crush on him ever since I saw him on "The Brady Bunch". Great music and great man. Sad day :(
2. This lovely quote I found on Pinterest today. It's always a lovely reminder. Somewhere out there is someone perfect for me and when God is ready I will find him.
3. Can it be April already???
Don't get me wrong I'm excited for March and all...buuuut April holds sooo many amazing things!!
-My Birthdayyy (22 already...oy)
-My sister Mindy got us tickets to the Ingrid Michaelson concert in Madison. She is one of our favorites. Gonna be a great sister filled day :) We might even get matching sister tattoos.
-Miranda Lambert concert with Danielle. So pumped. I LOVE Miranda Lambert...girl can rock out! When she played at Country USA last summer it was basically rained out :( Danielle and I are gonna have an awesome time!!
-Roadtrip with Tav to non other than Nashville. She is finally going with me..she's gonna love it!! Ahh I can't wait!! I'm sure once I'm there I'll be tempted to just stay :)
4. Jimmy Johns has the best subs...ever. Seriously the avocado makes everything delectable. Yumyumyum.
5. It's hard writing this post with a baby crying every 2 seconds so it's taking quite some time to write it. Nap time??
6. I miss Zumba. I need to get my butt to classes again soon!
7. I ordered my dream coat the other day. I gave into temptation. Modcloth is horribly addicting.
8. I need a hair cut. But do I wanna do something different...or just a trim??? I obsess over my hair so much and never really change it up that much. Tisk tisk.
9. Today is Justin Biebers 18th Birthday... :) Along with Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley)'s. What handsome young gents.
10. I miss the Dixie Chicks.
So there you go...10 random things going through my mind right now. Ly is finally down for a nap I'm gonna relax until she wakes up and have myself a lovely Thursday...have yourself a lovely Thursday too :)
Last night I was trying to decide which movie I wanted to watch...I decided upon "Walk the line." Sometimes I forget how truly amazing this movie is (to me at least). Years ago I saw it in movies and the minute it came out on DVD I was right there to buy it. But somehow over the years it got buried in the back of my DVD's. Lucky for me I dug and found it last night!!! And may I just say...Johnny Cash is a legend. He is simply one of the best. I grew up listening to him (my Grandpa is a big fan) and to this day I am in awww of how truly different his sound is. In a brilliant way!! When I origianlly heard that they were doing a movie about his life I was a bit worried. Those are some big shoes to fill. But I think Joaquin Phoenix potrayed him very well, and Reese Witherspoon can never do any harm. They did an amazing job.
I am in LOVE with her style in this movie!!
Johnny Cash struggled with so many things in his life. Seeing the love between him and June was really what he needed. Seeing the 2 of them together really makes you believe in true, can't live without, do anything for love. When she died he died only 5 months later...that's love.
Now that is music. Today just so happens to be Johnny's 80th Birthday if he was still alive.
Today starts the journey of Lent. I am a catholic and for most of us we will be attending Ash Wednesday mass at some point today. For me I will be going tonight with my mom. It really is one of my favorite mass's. The Church fills with people...so many people. It's beautiful. There's a certain feeling that will be there on a night like tonight. It can't be explained. Just beautiful and wonderful.
Along with Lent you are strongly encouraged to either give something up (most of the time it's sweets) or do something more.
Me???
I will be giving up soda.
Easier said than done. I love my soda..so so much. I am seriously a diet coke addict. But it will be a reminder everytime I go and reach for that diet coke. That if Jesus can die for my sins I can give up soda for a few weeks. It won't be easy...but I believe it will strengthen me as a person.
Farewell fizzy addicting soda...I will partake again after Lent.
The other day Tav and I had the ultimate girls day...
First we went to get manis and pedis (my first pedi...it will not be my last!!). Usually I am overly ticklish but this was alright. And to top it off there were amaaaaazing chair massagers. Now I wish it was warm enough to wear open toe shoes and show off these perfectly painted toes. I have to say my favorite part of this visit..besides the nail lady tickling my hand...(yea a bit weird) was the fact that Tav wore skinny jeans so when she had to unroll them she couldn't (her nails were still wet). So the nail man had to come and practically pry down those skinny jeans. Seriously funniest thing ever.
What's a gal to do after she get's her nails did??...Starbucks of course! From there we went shopping and ended it with dinner at Golden Corall. Which is a buffet type of place. We figured we had a hectic day we deserved to stuff our faces :p We filled our plates and right as we were digging in our waitor comes up and asks "are you going to eat all of that" and were like..."yea we're pigs lol" and he so graciously/oddly says "oh wow I can't believe you keep your figures eating like that" and then he made an outline with his hands. Needless to say a bit akward..sure enough as were eating our dessert he offers to take our picture. I'm not one to turn down a picture. Seriously an odd night. But a good one.
Great day with my bestie :)
Every girl...and guy deserves to be pampered once in a while.
I heard this song and thought awww. I saw this video and thought...oh my goodness this is seriously one of the cutest videos ever. This is the first song I have heard from this guy but if his other music is anything like this I am now a happy listener :)
2. Safe and Sound-Taylor Swift and The Civil Wars.
I was soooo excited to hear that they were doing a callaboration, because I am such a fan of both. Needless to say I love the song!! And I just saw the video the other day...kinda spooky..but it works.
3. Over you-Miranda Lambert
Yet another amazing song by Miranda Lambert. This song really pulls at your heart.
4. Springsteen-Eric Church.
A friend told me I needed to hear this...I'm glad I listened. It has been on repeat the last few days.
5. Songs like this-Carrie Underwood.
This isn't a new song but it has just been stuck in my head all week. A great girl power song. So true.
There you have it. My top 5 songs of the week. They have been playing again and again and still I'm not sick of them. That's how you know it's a good song!
