"Alive Again"

I have been eagerly hoping that this song currently playing, "Alive Again" by Matt Maher would make it to the music Website that I use for this blog.
This Album isn't even out yet and I have heard this track on the radio a few times already. I even posted the acoustic version on Facebook because I love it so much. I always love to hear such powerful songs on KLOVE in the morning on my way to work. They seem to give me a great pick me up before I start my day. I might be in trouble though if they decide to play Matthew West's song "The Motions" back to back with Matt Mahers song " Alive Again". If I were driving, I'm sure I would have to pull over.

Congratulations Dan and April !!!

This past weekend Jonathan and I, along with many others from our family, headed out to Columbiana, Ohio (eastern Ohio) for the wedding of my step-brother Dan and his new wife April. They finally tied the knot on Saturday after being together for several years. We are all very happy for them. I am particularly happy to have yet another great sister added to our family to help keep these rambunctious guys in line.
I feel our family has truly been blessed. God has provided each of us with a perfect spouse that only HE could find. We are all blessed to have spouses that have brought out the best in us.
Below are some pictures of our great weekend.
