Its a Great Day to be Alive

"And it's a great day to be alive
I know the sun's still shinin' when I close my eyes
There's some hard times in the neigborhood
But why can't every day be just this good?"
Excert from "ITS A GREAT DAY TO BE ALIVE" TRAVIS TRITT

So this was the song that Tim and Kayla walked out of the church to at their wedding. I had the huge privilledge of being one of her bridesmaids. It was a special day. Congratulations guys! We love you both!

However, this song has been stuck in my head ever since than. So I challenged myself to this, and I challenge my readers/listeners/stalkers on here to do the same thing. Find at least one (or 3 or 562) reasons each day that make it truely a great day to be alive.

On Saturday my reason was because I have the best husband ever. To see a new marriage starting reminded me of my special day and made me actually cry when I thought back and really realized that was the best decision I have ever made!

Today's reason was friends. I stopped at one of my best friends places from Manitou today and realized how much I missed her and her family!Can't wait to move back there.

I have a feeling that tomorrow's reason is going to do with something connected to, Oh I dont know...my birhtday?!

Music Monday

I had trouble trying to find a song to fit Music Monday and for some reason Amazing Grace came to mind. I have nothing significant or deep to say but I believe that the words speak for themselves! I pray that this song will bless you today!


Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.

I shall but walk always with You,
Your heart forever mine,
I'll live in Christ, so pure and true,
Until the end of time.

Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

The world shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun refuse to shine;
But God, who called me here below,
Shall be forever mine.

When we've been here ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun!
We've no less days to sing god's praise,
Then when we'd first begun.


Go Bless-God Bless
