Tis the season
November 23, 2008
It’s starting to feel like the holidays around here a lot sooner than normal. Adam and I have already begun Christmas shopping (weird) and we’ve been listening to a lot of Christmas music to get ready for recording for The Christmas Friends this year. I think I have found a song I want to record all by my lonesome which is scary for me. It’s very vulnearable to produce music. I’m excited about it though. I just can’t seem to find any kind of chord chart for it….. hmmmm…. I’ll have to keep looking otherwise it’s going to be a pain to figure it all out. My brain doesn’t work like that. Adam can though, so it could work. My brother and I are going to record a song together and that will be fun. I’ve even though of an awesome name for us (The Rockinbacher’s) it’s a play on our (my maiden) last name.
I’m going to be making some good pies this thanksgiving. I’m really excited that Adam’s family is going to be joining my family this year. I love our families and we’re so blessed that they get along and love each other too. Family gatherings are always fun. There’s a lot of us and it’s always a crazy time.
We had Meg and David over last night. It was a blast, we made pizzas, talked and laughed all night. They are awesome and we really enjoy spending time with them. I’m glad they moved to San Diego. Feels like life just wouldn’t be the same with them up in Nevada still. We look forward to many more pizza parties
Been thinking about lots of different stuff this week. How to really be a part of this community and love on the people around here. I’ve also been very interested for a while in supporting different types of organizations. Not just supporting, but doing something. I’m beginning to think of what it would be like to do a type of art/music show through revo that would benefit organizations against human trafficking. It’s something I feel passionately about and am not sure what to do but want to do something. I know enough people that it would be a very doable thing and I think a lot of people would be a part of supporting it. I would also like for our community group to take on doing something as well. We’ll see what all comes of this. If I let myself get in the way I start thinking “What if I fail, what if I can’t do any of that stuff” but I think I’ve decided that it is far worse to not do something. I’d rather try and fail, but I also don’t really think I’d fail. I think God has given me these passions and abilities for a purpose.
Alright, time to keep researching.
