Wednesday November 9 is the 2011 Country Music Awards – an event once so important to me that I would put my schedule on hold so I could enjoy watching this annual awards show on tv. For a few years now, I have committed my Wednesday nights to leading a small group for church’s student […]

Was it really 11 years ago already that we got to attend the 2000 Academy of Country Music Awards in Los Angeles? Newcomer Brad Paisley won that year for Best New Male Vocalist, and he’s now a country music veteran who took the Top Male Vocalist prize in 2011. Someday, I’d like to attend the

Today is one of those days that come only twice a year – one of the two annual country music awards shows. I’ve been super excited all week, well, for months actually; even if a few of the nominees are anonymous to me. Country music is changing, and I just don’t have the time to

In March, Rich was deployed to Afghanistan but he is allowed to communicate via phone or computer from time to time. He will

(continued from a previous blog post) So here’s a recap of Sunday – church, brunch, Hannah Montana movie – and that is where I left off. So we get to the Hannah Montana movie, and of course our 9-month-old son wakes up from his nap just in time for the movie (couldn’t be awake to

After my extremely busy weekend (more about that in my next post!), I’m just not up to the task of doing a live blog about the Academy of Country Music Awards like I did last year. I had a lot of fun doing it at that time, but this year we were lucky enough to

WAL-MART! I can find many ways to blame Wal-Mart for the way the economy is tanking. Time for my latest beef about the place. We went over there Friday morning because my husband didn’t have to work until after lunch, and we need an oil change. So we thought we’d get the oil change done

In my previous post I was looking for the title of a song and the artist who sings it, and I promised a prize to anyone who could provide me with the info. Two readers and fellow bloggers, justj and derek, successfully completed the challenge. So what’s their prize? A blog post of recognition, of
