Continuing with our birthday theme, today's topic is Favorite Birthday Memories! We asked our Facebook friends to submit, and you guys have responded with some great stories :) Brandi Hallas Vanderhoof wrote us saying her favorite birthday was her 16th but not because of an extravagant party. She explains that during her birthday she was really sick, going in and out of consciousness, but what made it extra special was the love she felt. She explains how her now-husband(boyfriend at the time) was there for her during the whole ordeal and how her faith was strengthened. And they have been married now for 20 years :o Now that is what I call a Sweet Sixteen. Mary Smith Hess' favorite birthday involved her husband as well when they spent the weekend @ The Charleston Place Hotel! That is always a sweet deal. Marissa Feathers' birthday memory is close to my heart because I share the same birthday memory! She remembers her opening night of My Fair Lady at the Flowertown Theater as a member of the cast. Two years ago, your blogger had an opening night birthday starring as Conrad Birdie in Bye Bye Birdie! What made it so great was the fact that,yes the audience sung Happy Birthday to me, but I felt I was giving them a show. It's a little cliche to say it's better to give than receive, but its so great when you move past celebrating yourself for a second to remember why you were put on the earth...to give back :) Joy Stra wrote, "Yeah!!! Love your station and the music you play. Love it even better when my kids sing with it." This is so awesome. Today we are reminded of God's use for us! To spread the word in a way that connects to a universal audience. To plant seeds. Here's to another year of what God has planned for us! Keep your comments and messages coming about your favorite Birthday memories, today's Word on the Way (2 Corinthians 4:8&9), or whatever is on your mind...We'd LOVE to hear from y'all <3
Switching gears to today's Tweet randomness! Jars of Clay seem to be using their two hands for exercising! Stephen Mason is playing Tennis this morning, and Dan Haseltine "is going to brave the humidity and go for a run!" Maybe Stephen was inspired by last weekends tennis matches...who knows :p Barlow Girl's Alyssa had the total opposite day yesterday tweeting,"Wow. I totally slept till noon!! Umm i almost feel guilty about it, I think I slept like 11 hours. good times..." Lauren Barlow poetically tweets," Today was simple but it was really wonderful...I liked it alot..." That's a lot of ellipses. Just shows she has a lot to say yet doesn't need to say it! Gotta love Barlow Girl...haha! Especially when they post pics like this
In other Twitter News, Matthew West announced his surprise when NASCAR played The Motions in one of their recent races, and Aaron Shust is driving around in a door less jeep...something this blogger could not do :o Jeremy Camp tweets that he's going on Tour this fall!!! More about that to come in the following weeks!
Let's take sometime today to Cover the Covers! On this months digital cover of CCM Magazine is the band Leeland with a blurb on the side that advertises for Music Boat 2010. Third Day is sponsoring the cruise, yet the David Crowder Band is headlining. The cruise starts in Miami and ends in the Keys! I just love the fact that the Boat is called the Music Boat!!! Contemplate the name for yourselves...it could just be a me thing! Actress Zooey Dechanel is on the cover of Relevant this month where the mag asks us if we knew that Craig Hartin, the creator of Hunger Force is a Christian. In the article, Hartin expresses the importance of drawing the line between what is lighthearted and what is offensive in animated comedy shows. Lastly, I'd like to draw attention to HM , a magazine all about the hardcore Christian movement. Nothing says hardcore like a double cover, one in the front and one in the back :P
