Friday, Saturday, Monday and Tuesday!!!!

It's hard to update everyday. I have lots on my mind I would love to write about, but taking the time to get the words on electronic paper, grammatically correct, proves to be a time-consuming task.

For a Favorite Friday list, I would like to list my top-ten must-listen-to acoustic/folksy musicians and artists

1. Iron & Wine

2. The Weepies

3. Derek Webb

4. The Shins

5. Jose Gonzalez

6. Ingrid Michaelson

7. Nick Drake

8. Danny Donnelly (solo worship albums)

9. Sufjan Stevens

10. Cat Power (their older stuff - mainly the Covers Album)

For Sensational Saturday:

David and I saw a HUGE turtle attempting to take the exit from Buck Road to I-75 S in Rossford, Ohio, last Saturday. What's funny is the sign posted by the exits, which lets us know that farm machinery, bicycles and animals are prohibited from taking I-75...seriously.

I named the HUGE slow-moving turtle Dusty. When we came back to rescue him, he was already gone. Hopefully he didn't get charged with un-lawful animal trespassing on the interstate.

For Meaningful Monday and Together Tuesday:

I wear a dark-green braided/knotted bracelet on my right wrist. David made it for me this around time last year. I haven't gone a day without wearing it. It's made from parachute rope and will never break. He always says "the day those knots on that bracelet breaks on their own is the day we're over." So, needless to say, I've take extra special care of the bracelet.

I probably will wear it for the wedding. I probably will be wearing it while I'm giving birth to our first child. I probably will give it to our first daughter or son whenever they leave home... Hopefully it will be a meaningful heirloom that will be passed down.

I have three upcoming bridal showers. The first one is this Sunday, and I am really excited! David's family will be here this weekend for it - and I'm really pumped-up about showing them around Crawfordsville. Any suggestions of must-see places? I was thinking the Lane Place, Lew-Wallace Study and Chapel Books' Agape Praise Fest.
