Thoughts on Thursday

Happy Friday Eve Everyone!!

Go link up with Life, Love & Puppy Prints!

*Last night, J was able to stay OUT of cop cars haha =) I still can't get over it. It freaked me out when he was telling the story but I was laughing by the end of it.

*I have gotten a lot of requests to upload a recording of me and my brother-in-law playing.  So Here is one song we did last night -- Familiar Taste of Poison (Halestorm). Please excuse the quality -- I had The Husband record it on my point-and-shoot camera.  Larry is playing the guitar and I am singing. 

We play again tomorrow night -- I am going to see if I can get another song or so recorded to share. =)

*This weekend is Christina's bachelorette party! I am so excited!! I think we are going to have an amazing time.  I can't go into details because said details are being kept a secret from The Bride-to-be.

*The shoes J ordered still won't be here until Monday. BOO!! BUT at least it is Thursday!! On Monday, a week was SO long but now it is only a few days =) I can't wait to share them!!

*I watched an episode of "Hoarders" last night.  It made me want to clean the house top to bottom.  I think that is going to be my Saturday chore.  It grossed me out so badly! It wasn't like she was keeping all the trash, she just didn't put anything away.  She kept piling stuff upon stuff. She KNEW it was a mess so I am not sure if she was just lazy or if she was saying she knew it was messy because she was on the show? Still it was disgusting! She had a shedding dog and there was dog hair EVERYWHERE!! ICK! Nothing like a little motivation lol

*I forgot it was St. Patrick's Day but I wore green anyway. That worked out -- luck of the Irish maybe? haha Just kidding.  I think I am NOT supposed to wear green because I am pretty sure I am not Irish.  You're only supposed to wear green if you ARE Irish, right?

*OH I am SO excited -- I won a CUTE give away from my girl over at Letting Love Grow.  It is this ADORABLE headband from Mila Rose Designs.  Thanks so much Kait!!

*I need to find a casual-ish dress for Christina's rehearsal next Friday.  I was going to wear something a little more dressy but the invite states casual...boo!! I was going to see if my sis wanted to go shopping with me on Saturday but she is sick =/ Now I have no one to shop with! BOO!!

*SO I need YOUR help -- any suggestions on where to shop? NOT online -- it won't be here soon enough and needs to be affordable.

I hope y'all are having a great week -- the weekend starts tomorrow!!

Singing Machine & WILW

So yesterday I was a BIG tease!! It's OK I know. =)
We didn't get washed away by the FOUR INCHES OF RAIN AN HOUR, so I made it to the 'performance'. I have been singing with my brother-in-law at a local bar here in Orlando.
Larry got the gig originally and we went and watched him.  It made me want to get back to singing in a VERY bad way! So after that first night, I got with him and told him I would LOVE to sing if ever he wanted to take a break and just play guitar.  He was definitely up for that. 
So on Tuesday nights for the past 2 weeks I have been singing acoustically at this bar.  =) Every week I get fewer and fewer butterflies!! It's been amazing! 2 out of 3 weeks, our close family friend (who also took our amazing wedding pictures) has been coming up and taking pictures -- I will share a few =)
The set list for the first night was:
Marry Me - Train
Stay - Sugarland
Familiar Taste of Poison - Halestorm
Lucky - Jason Mraz (Larry) & Colbie Caillat (Me)

    

  

It was a short list but I didn't know how it would go AND we had limited time to practice/learn songs.

The second week:

Lucky - Jason Mraz (Larry) & Colbie Caillat (Me)

Marry Me - Train Stay - Sugarland
Familiar Taste of Poison - Halestorm
My Happy Ending - Avril Lavigne
Undo It - Carried Underwood

  

Last night -- we didn't have our photographer =/ because it was trying to monsoon, haha! =) We had a decent crowd and they changed the sound systems a little which made a HUGE difference.  I already can't wait to go back!!
Set List Last Night:
Undo It - Carried Underwood
Lucky - Jason Mraz (Larry) & Colbie Caillat (Me)
Familiar Taste of Poison - Halestorm
Stay - Sugarland
Bob Marley Medley (I sang harmony -- Larry was lead)

Awake & Alive - Skillet (I sang the entire song)

SO NEXT FRIDAY (the 4th), if you are in the CFL area and don't have anything to do, we'll be playing again! =) Email me for the location/time: lifeaftertheaisle@gmail.com
