About Me

My photo
We've lived alot of places including S.Korea, Seattle and San Diego. We've liked all the places we've been, but we like our current home the best! We now live in a great town with fabulous people that appreciate the value of hard work and a kind word. Its tough to find that type of place anymore. So with that said, we enjoy taking road trips, working on our house, growing our garden, attempting new recipes, and just hanging out as a family pursuing new and old hobbies, and spending time with our families. We have lots to be thankful for, and hope to share a glimpse into that here. Visit often, sit awhile and leave a comment!

life changing lyrics...

So, its not a surprise that I love music. I was surrounded by it even at an early age. I think it might actually surpass my love of coffee... I'm not joking! Tonight, my ipod is set to the most recent Natalie Grant album, "Love Revolution." On this album she addresses many things, and I am so proud to say that she's a fellow alum of my university! One of my fave songs is "Daring to Be" you can listen to it here...
I've had enough of the same old
Tired ordinary world
Telling my heart that I'm nothin'
But an ordinary girl
So sick and tired of falling for that lie every time
I've got a desire just to find out if there's more
And it starts tonight
CHORUS:
I'm waving goodbye to my pretty little life
Taking your hand and crossing that line
Daring to leave the old me
Shout it out loud, I'm not ashamed
Diving in now, and so not afraid
Hello to all that You see
And everything You made me
I'm daring to be
Perfectly safe and complacent
Those are words Your love's replaced
With fearless and brave, and courageous
Yeah, that's who I am today
CHORUS:
I'm waving goodbye to my pretty little life
Taking your hand and crossing that line
Daring to leave the old me
Shout it out loud, I'm not ashamed
Diving in now, and so not afraid
Hello to all that You see
And everything You made me
I'm daring to be
BRIDGE:
Can you hear it?
Calling every heart to come alive
Pulling us deeper
To the life that we were meant to find
And it starts tonight
CHORUS:
I'm waving goodbye to my pretty little life
Taking your hand and crossing that line
Daring to leave the old me
Shout it out loud, I'm not ashamed
Diving in now, and so not afraid
Hello to all that You see
And everything You made me
I'm daring to be

The song rocks and it feels like its my way of saying that I'm going for it all because I know that God is ready to take my hand, He's taking the hand of his daughter and leading me on. He isn't worried about what is up ahead, because he already knows... and because I know that He knows, I'm not worried.
