Death could not hold our King! ♥♫

That's a line from a song The Inspirations sang called The Night Before Easter. I thought it was fitting. :)  {Here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDMjpvNsi-o&feature=youtu.be }

I went to see The Inspirations & Archie Watkins and Smoky Mountain Reunion, and it was awesome! They have a singing the night before Easter every year. I go see them when they're close enough, and I'm never disappointed :) :) They have been having some lineup changes lately, and this is the first time I've seen them since it's changed. I loved Jon & Daron, but sometimes in life you have to move on to other things. I really missed them tonight, but the new guys are great too! Harold could really hit those high notes and Joe got pretty low. They did a wonderful job; I was impressed. Here are a few pics from the night :D




Mrs. Cindy! She's Archie's wife. Sweetest little lady you will ever meet. :)

Eddie Dietz - Baritone for AW&SMR. He was my favorite original. He kissed me on the cheek when I told him that. :')

Once again, I've gotten really bad at this. Or I've never gotten good at it...

It's been over a month since I posted anything on here. O.o

That afternoon, I had a consultation with an orthodontist {Dr. Durham is the best, btw!},

AND (insert drumroll here) after wanting/needing them as long as I can remember, I've gotten braces!! :D I've had them almost 3 weeks now, and let me tell ya, that first week was torture. My mouth felt like there were razors slicing my cheeks open. After I got over that, I had to learn how to chew again. If you know me at all, you know I can't deal with stuff interrupting my eating! xD It's been a pretty good road since then. I accidentally ate a piece off of them yesterday and didn't realize it until I went to brush my teeth after lunch. They fixed it in less than 2 minutes; they're thebomb.com :)

Spring has finally sprung around here. There are flowers blooming, green grass growing, and fish biting! I got a new fishing pole this year. I had been dying to go fishing, and I finally got to last week. I begged daddy to go with me, and finally talked him into it. He cast maybe 3 times and caught a fish! Then Tate got to the pond and caught a couple. Syrenia came and even she caught something!! (No offense, S♥) It was getting close to 6:30 when Tyler came out there and he caught one in less than 10 minutes. I think their total catches were Daddy - 3, Tate - 3, Syrenia - 2, and Tyler - 1 [He wasn't out there very long, though.] After me nearly dying to go, I ended up not catching a single fish. >_< But, I may be going again this weekend, so I'm sure I'll catch something then!!

I finally got my Easter outfit together with just a few days to spare. I'm wearing a lace coral dress with a white cardigan & brown shoes (that took forever and a day to find because I'm so picky!) I wasn't too sure about the dress at first, but it'll do. We're having our annual "Relay for Life Bake Sale" at work Friday. Hopefully it'll be a hit!! I guess I;m about to head to the kitchen to bake. Wish me luck!!
