This past Saturday, the hubs and I (and nearly everyone we know) headed to Vanderbilt Stadium to see U2 play in our hometown of Nashville.

If you've ever asked someone what they would need to take with them in an emergency, then you can sort of figure out what their daily lives are like at the moment.

Enter the iPhone ShakeITPhoto App, a sunset and a stellar group of campadres, and I have the best set of photos I've taken to date--without ...more»
Today is Friday, a fact worth celebrating no matter your musical preferences. But today is extra super duper special because (Uncle) Nathan Angelo has seen fit to drop his new musical goodness on the world. Angelo's latest effort (yes, produced by the hubs Stephen Gause, which DOES not make me partial AT all) Follow Your Heart is available today, and ...more»
A couple of years back, our friends Dave and Amanda, were putting their cutie patootie daughter to bed, complete with full bedtime routine: pacifier, blanky, lighting, and music. Parents, you know the drill. Whatever works, right?
