a bounce in my step

i have re-discovered music these past few weeks, and i am loving it all over again! in korea, my ipod was my best friend. it came with me everywhere, and i was always listening to something or other, and i loved it! having kids and being a stay at home mom has changed the background music in my life to say the least. it's now "i love you, you love me" and the caillou theme songb between whines and giggles and talking to friends and family back home. it's the best life ever, and i wouldn't change a thing, but injecting a little dance party here and doens't hurt!


i've started exercising again - 1st time since high school as sad as that is - and there is no way that i can run or walk without a little inspiration. so, i've rediscovered my ipod and the fun of having a little bounce in my step :) i have songs that make me laugh, cry, dance, toe tap, and every song has some sort of memory attached to it which is the best part. this next pic is all shania's any man of mine, and us hill girls had the moves down pat as you can see!

i always let loose when shedaisy's deck the halls comes on, and i always tear up to sarah mclachlan's angel or lane's theme. i remember the good old days whenever i hear california girls or wide open spaces or i saw the sign or stairway to heaven and on and on. i run the fastest to heart of the champion and i would walk 5000 miles. i sing my loudest to celine dion (power of love preferably) or any disney song (especially part of your world!). i think of my family whenever i hear james taylor or fleetwood mac or the eagles. i go back to our wedding day whenever i hear brad's you and me, and well ya.....you get the point!

i love the many road trip thumbs as microphone pictures i have, and i'm proud of the hundreds of road trip cd's that i've made with my random mixes of my favorites. nothing makes or breaks a good road trip like good tunes!

anyway, i've just missed music in my life and am so thankful for the power it has. i literally have found the bounce in my step again, and it feels great!

go get your toes a tappin people :)
