The Piano Guys are so good...I want to play like them when I "grow up" (in my piano playing that is) :P

Amazing Grace rendition by Carlton Forrester

Two weeks ago, a friend of mine played the most beautiful rendition of John Newton's "Amazing Grace" written by Carlton Forrester.  I'm always looking for ways to add new piano music to my collection, so I asked my friend if he could make me a copy...and he did!  I was so excited...I went home and tried to play it, only to be disappointed that I couldn't!  So last Friday I asked my piano teacher if he would help me learn it and he said he absolutely would ...yay!

So I thought I would share the song with you all...enjoy!  Let me know what you think of this rendition :D

What I'm saving my money for

Lately I have been wanting an mp3 that can do everything that an iPod Touch can do.  So as we were in Big Lots the other day, I saw a mini Android tablet for only $59.99...I was so excited, but I had to wait until I had $20 more!  Then today Mom took Sydney and I back to Big Lots so I could buy that mini tablet...until I saw this...


D2 Internet Tablet
I wasn't able to get it today, being that the price is $89.99, but it is worth the wait!  This tablet can do everything that the iPod Touch does (possibly even more) :D  Sydney decided to get herself one today, and is currently messing around with it.

My favorite music : part 1

Okay...so I told y'all that I am a southern gospel fan now.  So I'm going to start sharing some of my favorite songs with y'all, and hopefully make y'all fans too (just kiddin').  

Recently as I was doing dishes, I was listening to the southern gospel station that we have created on Pandora.  All of a sudden this song comes on and I as I listen to the song, I instantly fell in love with it!  It turns out that the song was "Me and God" by Josh Turner.  I've only heard two songs by him, so I'm not telling anybody to go buy all of his CD's.

Anyway...I bet you can guess what song I'm going to share with you...LOL ;D  Enjoy y'all!



PS. In case you were wondering...here in the South the term y'all is in fact a word.  Everywhere you go, you here it being used {along with ain't, gonna, "No you don't (instead of "No you didn't), etc.} :P
