Brooke Fraser

I haven't bought a non-worship cd in a loooonnng time. Jordan got a Johnny Lang Cd for his birthday from Ferris in January but that is the last one I think we got. I came across Brooke's cd when I was ordering the new Hillsong United cd- she's one of thei main writers and as I was searching around, I came across this cd and her website and Myspace Music page.

I was absolutely hooked.

She reminds me of the last female singer that I totally fell in love with: KT Tunstall (thnx Trish!) except better, because she loves the Lord. Her writing is so good: biblical, fresh and creative and the melodies are amazing!! If you get a chance, check it out. I had to pay a little more for the cd since I had to order it from New Zealand, but it is totally worth it!!

Wedding Weekend

Jordan and I were in a wedding this weekend. The connection is a funny one, because it's a guy I went to Brentwood High with, but Jordan met a few years ago through business, since he is a Mortgage Broker and this other guy is a realtor.

My mom actually met his older sister, also a realtor, in line to vote or the 2004 Prez elections several years ago. Random, or God, which is what I know it was!

So, Nick & Kathryn got married this week. I could kick myself for forgetting my camera *again* but I think I'll let myself off the hook. We weren't in the wedding party, but were a part of the music...let me re-phrase that..we WERE the music. Really, more so Jordan, who played the Prelude music, the seating of grand/mothers, Bridesmaids, and Bridal Processional. I sang "Feels Like Home." It was a beautiful rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception, and we were excited to be a part of it.

In other Roe news- this week is crazy as weeks come! Tonight is our only night to be at home and "prepare" for the week ahead. I have a bunch of church things to work on, not to mention yard and cleaning endeavors as well. Only by God's grace will I accomplish what's ahead :-) And it doesn't look like "24" will make the cut again this week. Too bad, I do want to know if Prez Palmer's okay and if Jack has rescued his love, but we'll have to wait and figure it out when we watch it next week- most likely...

That being said...I must get back to work. This was my 25 minute lunch break. (dont worry, I wasn't writing this the whole time..that would be sad if it took me that long to write this much) Nope, this was the past 4 minutes, so blessings on your Monday.

Horrible...

I cannot get past what I found out about 2 hours ago regarding the shootings at Virginia Tech. I cannot imagine what the students, faculty and family are going through. Please pray for this campus and what is happening right now.

Didn't expect this....

So how about this for a fine Thursday morning in April?

Spring Hill Weather Forecast and Conditions Tennessee (37174)


Yep- that's right. 42 degrees, but feels like 36. This morning, as I woke up to Jordan's really early alarm, my first thought was, "oh my word- you have to be kidding. It's FREEZING!" I did what any other normal woman would do and opted to snuggle deeper into the blanket rather than put on more clothes to keep me warm. When I got up 30 minutes later, it was still FREEZING. I checked our thermastat, which read 60- pretty cold for me for inside. I decided not to mess with it, thinking that the sunlight would warm the house up as the day progressed.

Not so

10:30am and still 60 degrees. I pulled up weather.com to find that the low tomorrow is 24 degrees. WHATEVER. I put the heat back on.

Thankfully I hadn't put my sweaters up yet, so here I am- working and wearing my nice pink christmas sweater and thick socks.

YAY for unpredictable middle Tennessee weather.
