My Honey, The Guitar Star

*(This post might come across of me boasting a bit about the husband.  I don't mean to, I'm just really proud of Danny.)  

Hi Friends!  It has been awhile since I've posted.  That's because Danny and I enjoyed a week in Yellowstone and we just got back yesterday.  Many more pictures to come from that adventure, but first Danny has had a few gigs recently.  His friend JaNae Kotter, a local musician, invited Danny to play the guitar with her group at a few performances.  My favorite gig of his was up at the Homestead Resort in Midway.  It was such a pretty evening in the mountains.  Before Danny went on stage, we had a little picnic of fried chicken, watermelon, bread and cheese (a mix of Southern love and a French soiree).

Yum
Danny, JaNae and Auburn did a fabulous job!  Danny's solo blew everyone away, seriously.  Gotta love that loop station.


I also really liked this song they played called "Wyoming Skies".  It is by a group called Raining Jane.  I just looked up some of their stuff and it was pretty good.



We had a great turn out of friends and family who came to enjoy the concert.  It was such a  fun evening!
Jeff and Lauren!

Me and the Rock Star, Danny!

Casey and Tiffany!

My Parents!
























































PS  One more thing, Danny has a profile on a music sharing website called SoundCloud.  (You may have heard of it.)  Anyway, this week they featured Danny and his music on the front page of their blog.  Check it out here.  (He is the second one down.)

    Thanks for sharing the concert. That's nice your parents could come. I'm glad to see you're using your picnic blanket.

    Danny, you blew me away and I'm all the way in Florida! Loved your solo! Did you write it all? That Loop Station thing is really cool! GREAT JOB! So proud of you. Good video, Jannifer. Thanks for sharing!

Oh Crafty Trees, Oh Crafty Trees...

I've become a finals widow, if you will, meaning Danny is crazy busy trying to finish up the semester.  This has given me extra time to use my crafty skills to get our place Christmas ready.  My first creations were these little paper/foam trees.  I've seen a few variations online of this craft. I put my own little twist on it.  They are really easy to make, just takes some time. Here is what you need: Scrap paper Hot glue gun 1" Circle punch Foam cone (at most craft stores) Toothpicks Note:  You are going to go to the craft store to buy the little foam cone and you will see styrofoam glue and you will think to yourself that would be a good thing to buy for this project.  Don't!  I got the styrofoam glue and it didn't work at all.  Just go with your trusty glue gun, it won't let you down. I think it's pretty self-explanatory by looking at the picture.  You just punch circles out from the scrap paper.  Then hot glue th...

Birthday Week!

By
This week is my birthday week, or should I say birth week.  However that sounds too much like birthing is occurring and that is not the case.  (Don't get any ideas, Danny and I have only been married for 5.5 months.)  Anyway, I firmly believe in celebrating birthdays for the whole week, because why not? Talena and I have a tradition each year that is the kick off for my birthday celebration.  You see, Talena and I were born 12 days apart.  On the midpoint day between our birthdays we go out to dinner to celebrate.  We always try to go some where we have never been before.  This year we went to the Citrus Grill, which was very delicious.  (Special thanks to Eliza for recommending the place.)  We had fun dining, laughing and sharing secrets, because that is what girls do. My dinner...doesn't it just make your mouth water. Talena Balena and Me. PS  We did have a funny little mishap with the dessert.  We got strawbe...

8 Months!

By
Smiling at Daddy Showing Mr. Lion who's boss. Milestones: New food this month: Carrots, Peas, Oatmeal, Prunes, Green beans, Squash He's really interested in making different noises and sounds with his mouth. I feel like he is watching us intently trying to figure it out. ("It" meaning talking.) He hasn't started to crawl yet, but he has gotten up on all fours. He finally rolled from his back to his stomach. He's been rolling the other way for months now. He doesn't like being on his stomach, so he avoided rolling to that position for a really long time. First St. Patrick's Day, because that's a big deal. Likes: At the beginning of the month, he liked to grab my face and bring it really close to his and yell. Apparently, it is a fun game. His favorite toys are his toy guitar from his Aunt Michele, his toy car from his Aunt Katie and Uncle Tim and he really likes his stackable rings. The vacuum. It is a fascinating specime...
