Ice cream for dinner? Why not. #lifeistooshort

My song, “I Am Broken” was released today. I still can’t believe it. On Facebook, so many people shared my link and spread the word. This post was hands down my favorite. Yes, yes, I’m probably biased, but I think my daughter did a great job advertising this momentous occasion.

I must say, I’ve been a bit down since coming home from Nashville. “What? You want me to do laundry and clean toilets?” To cheer myself up, I had four inches cut off my hair. #easilyentertained

Ken and I hung out tonight in the car on our driveway to listen to my song playing on the radio. Kidding. Well, it was playing on the radio, but it was the master version playing via Bluetooth and my iPhone. I can hardly wait until I hear it on the radio for realsies. #mightaswelldreambig […]

I got the master of my song today. I say “my song” but I’m simply the songwriter. Dallas, it was so much fun to watch you work your magic with guitar, bass, backup vocals, and computer. Ali, your sweet voice added so much and I’m glad that we are now “great friends” as you put […]

I only knew it had been mentioned a couple times in the show “Nashville.” It was an eerie and yet comforting feeling to walk onto that […]

Two years ago, today, I posted this picture on Facebook and said, “Conquered my fear of jet skis today. That just leaves sharks, heights, cougars, bears, the ocean….” I remember how proud of myself I was that day. I was petrified to get on this “water motorcycle” and I did it anyway. Okay, well, my friend […]

In my last post, I told you about how excited I was to finally see the Bluebird Café.

I almost didn’t see […]
