Fair Day!

So yesterday, after I got the house cleaned i decided to go to the thrift store with my mom. On our way we both decided it would be so fun to go to the fair! We finished shopping, i went home and got online and found some discount tickets, we called other people in my family to see who all could go and we took off! I LOVE doing things like that, last minute just pick up and go. So needless to say i was super excited! We got there about 7:30 and went straight to the animals! (my faaavorite). Nathan pet some of them and then we went in to feed the goats. They were seriously crazy! They would jump up on you and follow you around wanting food haha. It was cool though, i have never fed a goat before. Then we walked around and went shopping, i got a cute neclace, played some games and just relaxed. Things have been so stressful lately that it was so nice to just get away and not think of anything but just have fun. Also, to spend some time with my nephews, i love those boys so much! i really think i have one of the best families in the world, and i love the times when i get to hang out with them and just go through life together and make new memories. It was just what i needed!

Turn up the Music!

Here is one of my favorite songs! Part of the inspiration for my life, and this blog:

Wake up to the sunlight

With your windows open
Don't hold in your anger or leave things unspoken
Wear your red dress
Use your good dishes
Make a big mess and make lots of wishes
Have what you want
But want what you have
And don't spend your life lookin' back

Turn up the music
Turn it up loud
Take a few chances
Let it all out
You won't regret it
Lookin' back from where you have been
Cuz it's not who you knew
And it's not what you did
It's how you live

So go to the ballgames
And go to the ballet
And go see your folks more than just on the holidays
Kiss all your children
Dance with your wife
Tell your husband you love him every night
Don't run from the truth
'Cause you can't get away
Just face it and you'll be okay

Turn up the music
Turn it up loud
Take a few chances
Let it all out
You won't regret it
Lookin' back from where you have been
'Cause it's not who you knew
And it's not what you did
It's how you live

Oh wherever you are and wherever you've been
Now is the time to begin

 So give to the needy
And pray for the grieving
E'en when you don't think that you can
'Cause all that you do is bound to come back to you
So think of your fellow man
Make peace with God and make peace with yourself
'Cause in the end there's nobody else

Turn up the music
Turn it up loud
Take a few chances
Let it all out
'Cause you won't regret it
Lookin' back from where you have been
'Cause it's not who you knew
And it's not what you did
It's how you live

'Cause it's not who you knew
And it's not what you did
It's how you live
