Christmas Songs

{Belated} Thanksgiving post coming soon!

I love Christmas music! So much! I can only listen to it around November-early January. I can't listen to it before. haha.

Here are some of my favorite Christmas songs!

~I just bought "Christmas in Diverse City" by TobyMac and friends during Black Friday shopping! It was $5 at LifeWay! I am LOVING it!

You can sample it here.

I especially love "Christmas This Year" (TobyMac and Leigh Nash), "The First Noel" (TobyMac and Owl City [!!]), and "O Come, All Ye Faithful" (TobyMac). Check it out!!

~"For Unto Us" by Point of Grace. You can see it performed here or sample it on iTunes here (#9).

~"The Christmas Song: Chestnuts" - Justin Bieber :) Hear it here.

~"Angels We Have Heard on High" - Charmaine. Listen to it here.

Enjoy! :)


What are your favorite Christmas songs?

Thursday Thoughts

~I love Thursdays. Why? One word- Whitver. :)

My rockin study hall clean up crew. Pow wow time. Chicks in seats. JB. Mt. Everest. Greased watermelons. Moose. "Muved." Chat times. Class pictures. Laughing a good chunk of my day. The fabulous people I am blessed to call my friends.

"One less screaming girl" ~ Jolene

~But y'all, we need to talk about Nashville's latest big news. It even made the front page of tennessean.com. There is still a special "Bieber Fever" section on the home page. I think you need to go appreciate the video on the Tennessean's website here. Here are the pictures courtesy of the Tennessean. What, might you ask, was the Biebs doing in Nashville? Downtown Franklin to be exact? Filming a music video for his new Christmas album! And of course gf Selena joined him in Music City. Last night 90% of my FB newsfeed was about JB. Facebook even went to the trouble to say so many of my friends "also posted about Justin Bieber." Selena went to the Cool Springs Chickfila (I think we would be friends ;) and a friend of ours that works there got to talk with her!

What was really great... The Tennessean: "Teen idol Bieber will prowl and swagger his way through historic downtown Franklin tonight as part of a music video shoot."

Let's appreciate this.

Merriam Webster's definition of prowl: to move about or wander stealthily in or as if in search of prey. Swagger: to conduct oneself in an arrogant or superciliously pompous manner; especially: to walk with an air of overbearing self-confidence.

Very, uh, interesting verbs, there...

HOW DID I MISS JUSTIN BIEBER.

So tragic.

~Song on replay on my iTouch:

~I LOVE this blog. She is actually inspiring me to start sewing again! New Dress a Day!

~ Umm... best college announcement ever?!

"If you’ve walked or driven around the campus in the past several months, you’ve probably noticed the large lake and new fountain—now known as Lake Lipscomb—located by the baseball field. While the lake may look like a good place for whitewater rafting, scuba diving and swimming, the fountain pump is fed by high voltage power lines and if you were to damage the electrical system by doing anything in the lake, it could create a potentially dangerous — or possibly deadly — water experience. We ask that you not swim, boat or participate in other water activity in Lake Lipscomb."

~How do you like this blog design? Is it just me or is the black bird on the right ------->

kinda creepy? It makes me think of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow... Time for a change I beliebe... :) (hehehe get it? ~;-) yeah I don't think I have had enough sleep recently... ;)

Have a lovely evening!

Lily :o)
