Sometimes a song just gets stuck in your head. This song is mine from today. I woke up with the song resonating in my heart. In trying to discover the name of the tune, I found a great Christmas album. Josh Wilson’s album “Noel” was just added to our I-Tunes. What can I say? Christmas […]

Today is a marvelous day for many children across the country. Why? Because today signifies the start of Christmas break for many places. This afternoon there will be rejoicing everywhere.

Yesterday I posted my thoughts on “Christmas Wouldn’t Be Christmas Without …” Come to think of it, I forgot an important one, but I guess that makes a great segue into today. The music. I do LOVE Christmas music In fact I currently have 653 Christmas songs on my I-pod. Unlike some folks, I only […]

Next week I will finish my series on “Lyric Lines for the Savior.” Today’s post could almost count since the song is about Jesus coming. But since there really are not any words, I decided this one should be more for fun. My husband discovered “The Piano Guys” at a seminar he went to in […]

But the one that is my favorite actually features another lead vocalist – Audrey Aussad. Since we are getting a few flurries here today and tomorrow, this song, “Winter Snow” seems […]
