This past weekend Tyler and I had the privilege of attending the Passion 08 Conference in Washington, D.C. The experience was phenomenal for so many reasons. I’m going to try to relate just a bit of what happened this weekend, but first I’ll give you a little background about the Passion Movement itself and how …
I was in a BSM staff meeting this afternoon when Tyler reminded me that today is a very important day: It’s my mom’s birthday. Mom, I’m sorry, when I called you and said “Happy Birthday” it wasn’t because I am an incredibly thoughtful daughter. (Should I really be admitting this?) Alas, Tyler is the thoughtful …
At the close of each weekend I think about each show, the good points, the bad points, the things I didn’t expect, etc, and I plan to blog about the experiences come Monday. Now it’s Saturday again and I’m realizing that I haven’t brushed the subject of last weekend’s gigs. And of course, many of …
I suppose I’ve been on a brief posting hiatus, or I’ve just been too tired to think clearly enough to write much of anything useful. Either way, I apologize for my lack of blogging enthusiasm as of late. Today is a big day for many a couple in the United States (is Valentine’s Day a …
I went to the dentist this morning. I’ll say it again: I went to the dentist this morning. Going to the dentist is not one of my favorite experiences (as I think many of you would agree) and this morning was particularly painful. So I admit, I’ve been a slacker. I was a little sporadic …
Last night Tyler, our friend Paul, and I went to Chestertown, MD to play an open mic at this little place called Andy’s. Andy’s is a cute little bar that feels more like a coffee shop. The best part is that unlike most bars, the focus at Andy’s is actually the music. We had a …
Yesterday afternoon we received notice that our apartment complex would be performing maintenance on this new security system they’re installing (my mom will be pleased). Anyway, the maintenance requires that they have access to our apartment to install this phone thing (it’s gonna be like the buzzer type thing in Seinfeld). Just a few moments …
Over the weekend Tyler taught me how to update the website with all this html code and stuff, and now I can’t remember most of it. I was going to update the tour page because we’ve added a ton of dates in February and a few in March, but I just can’t seem to do …
Well, it’s just a few minutes shy of midnight here in lovely Newark, DE. Tyler should be arriving home from work within in the next half an hour or so and I really can’t wait. It’s been one of those days where our work schedules are completely opposite and we never manage to see each …
Last night Tyler and I had the pleasure of working with our good friend Joel Rakes. Joel came over, we ate dinner, and then we worked for a good 2-3 hours on fine tuning the songs that he’ll be using when he records his EP in Nashville next week. Let me be the first to …
