Thanksgiving

This year, I'm thankful for a roof over our heads. I'm thankful for our health, Brian's good job, food to eat, and low gas prices. I'm thankful for my family coming to have Thanksgiving at our house. I'm thankful to have a wonderful husband who loves me no matter what. I'm thankful for my two beautiful children and that they are smart and energetic. I'm thankful for the feeling I get when I listen to good music. I'm thankful my talk is over (I can breath now). I'm thankful for good friends that are willing to talk to me after not speaking for 10 years or more. I'm thankful for the plan Heavenly Father has for us, and I trust that it is what is best for our family. I'm thankful for a lot of things this year. I need to tell myself that when things come up that I'm not so grateful for. We are truly blessed.

Busy!

I'm having one of those days when there are so many things to do and I feel like I've been busy all day but hardly anything has been accomplished. Why can't I seem to get anything done? Still to do: my talk for Sunday, a rehearsal CD for a Relief Society musical number, a rehearsal CD for the middle school choir, get ready to host Thanksgiving for 25 people at our house, order Christmas cards, visiting teaching, grocery shopping, put shelves in the garage, tile the kitchen backsplash, organize everything in the house!...I'm getting tired just thinking about it! I did get the yard work done this morning, so I guess I'll have to be satisfied with that for today!

The Power of Music

Brian and I were just asked to speak in church in 2 weeks on the power of music. Music is like oxygen to me, but what can I say to those who don't feel the same way? Music can be so powerful. It can cheer me up, it can make me sad, it can fill me with the spirit, it can get me motivated, and it can make me want to get up and dance! I hope we can find some resources to help us say the right thing. Wish us luck!

My Music!

I cannot tell you how long I've been at the computer today trying to figure out how to post some of my music on here! It's next to impossible, but I acheived a miracle and got some of it on here. This is just some stuff I've been playing around with. I got a music program last year that can record instruments, voice, etc. It's been so fun! I love playing with it. I would do it all day if I could. Anyway, enjoy!
