I'm Walkin' On Sunshine!

Hey fellow bloggers!! :) I was trying to think of a song w/the word "sunshine" in it! This was pretty much the only one that came to mind besides "You Are My Sunshine." And although I have two "sunshines" of my own, this particular blog is going to be about the beautiful weather we have been having for the past few days!!!! :) I, for one, am loving it!!!!! I'm not sure why, but things just seem "better" when it is sunny outside!!!! So..........I just wanted to take a moment and say "THANKS" to God for giving us these wonderful sunshine days!!!! For me, they are a reminder of how beautiful our world truly is! And, these kind of days, when I feel soooo close to God, it feels like anything is possible!!!!!! :))
So...........go enjoy this incredible weekend (I hear it is supposed to rain tomorrow)! :) Great things lie ahead for each and every one of us!!!! Oh, and one more thought for the day: I think us grown-ups need to see the beauty in the simple things like our children do. A few of us have talked about dandelions this week and how our children love to pick them. I think it is soooooo very sweet how our children see these flowers as something of beauty (while soooo many adults try soooo hard to get rid of these flowers)! It just made me think of how innocent and rewarding children can be and that, maybe, just maybe, we could learn a lesson from them!!!!! :))
Children, along with the sunshine, are the greatest gifts from God!!!!!!!! They are constant reminders of heaven!!!!! :)

Top Ten Female Singers!!

There are lots of songs and singers that I like, but it wasn't too difficult to narrow them down to my top ten! :) Sorry I am late listing these, I , too, have been busy! I think it will be much easier from here on out! I am totally enjoying these beautiful sunny days we have been having!!!!! Taking walks with Jacob, picking flowers, seeing my neighbors, hearing lawnmowers, people working in their yards, kids playing and having fun, and just seeing the sun shine in through my window!!!! These are the days when I feel God most!!!!! Who, but he, could have made such a beautiful earth???!!!! :))

So.........on with my top ten!



1)Cher - her "old" stuff totally ROCKS!!!! "Jesse James" "Heart Of Stone" "If I Could Turn Back Time" - the list goes on!!!!!!!!!

2)Jewel - I am pretty sure I have every CD she did!!!! :)

3)MaDonna - her "old" stuff ROCKS, too!! "Like A Virgin" "Crazy For You" "Papa Don't Preach"
"If I Live To Tell" - again, the list goes on!!!!!

4)Martina McBride - I have several of her CD's! "Blessed" "Anyway" "This One's For the Girls" "Independence Day" - the list never ends!!!!

5)Faith Hill - I have several of her CD's, too! "Fireflies" - her duets with "THE" Tim McGraw!!!!!!!!!

6)Reba McIntyre - I can't even think of all the songs she has sang!!!!!! I have CD's and she just rocks!!!!! Plus, has anyone watched her TV show called "Reba?" Adorable! I just saw a rerun where she sings a song to her grandchild. I loved it soooo much I had to look online to find it (well, Mark helped). Reba rocks!!!!!!!

7)Wynonna Judd - I am a huge Judd's fan!!!! I think Naomi and Ashley rock, too! Goooooo, Judd's!!!!!!! :)

8)Miley Cyrus - yes, I am a Cyrus fan, too!!!! We got her CD for Jack and we love her, too! She really can sing and has a great voice!!!!

9)Christina Aquilera - I like what I call her "normal" songs! "Genie in a Bottle" "Beautiful" "Ain't no other man" - she has a great voice! I don't care for her "rap" type music!

10)Natalie Maines - from Dixie Chicks!! I have all of their CD's, too! Good music!!!!

I think I pretty much nailed my top ten!!!! I have almost every CD these girls have made!!! So, I hope I like their music!!! If not, I just spent a TON of money with nothing to show for it! I am gonna have to go "fish out" some of these CDs now. Every time a new one is bought, an old one gets put away. It is good to be reminded so I can listen to them once again! It is also good 'cause it keeps them rotating and they seem like new again!!!! :)
Btw, Miranda, I love doing these lists. I am still planning on doing a "Five on Friday" - just as soon as things get a little "less" busy!!!
Two more days till the weekend!!!!!! Hang in there, everyone!!!!! :)

Where Have I Been?!

Hey, guys, I am here!!!! It has just been a VERY long week! Jacob and I took all week to get over the Arizona time difference! We could not get to sleep at night and then were tired all the next day! I have no idea how Mark and Jackson did so well with school and work! Jacob and I just tried to make it through!!!! LOL! Maybe going to work and school forced them to sleep better. They were tired at the end of the day and, therefore, able to sleep. Jake and I - not so lucky! We tried to keep busy, but there wasn't anything that made us soooo tired that we easily went to sleep at night! Anyway..........we are both feeling a bit better, so that is good! I am going to see a new doctor this week. I just haven't been feeling good and I keep getting my migraines. I have been waiting to see if it was just the time zone difference or, maybe, me stopping my cycle (for vacation). Well, after waiting it out all of last week, I am still just not feeling right! I have gained weight, so it might just be that I need exercise. Who knows?! I just want to have a thorough physical by a new doctor who can check things out. Keep me in your prayers!!! Thanks!!!!! :)
So........I watched this movie today (it came on HBO) called "The Lake House." Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves starred in it. I remember back when it came to the theater - it was not at the top of my list. I thought it would be okay since I really like both of the actors, but it just wasn't at the top of my list. Well, let me tell you, it was really good!!!!!! My aunt and my sister both have recently watched it. My aunt said she had no idea what was going to happen while my sister said she totally figured it out! So..........I was very intrigued to see what would happen for me! And...........that's right!!!!! I had NO IDEA!!!!!!! I mean, you certainly have little guesses, but, basically, you have no idea! Well, at least my aunt and I had no idea!!!! :) Anyway, it was very good and I totally recommend it!!!! It even made me cry a little at the end!!!! It was a good cry, not a bad one!!!! :)
If you haven't seen this movie, rent it!!!! A must-see!!!!! :)
It also made me realize that "Keanu" totally used to be on my favorite actor list! I forgot about him!!!! What a cutie!!!!! :))
I will post some pics later this week! :) I would do it now, but I need Mark to help and he went to bed!!! :) I seriously need to learn how to do these things on my own!
More later!
Have a good week!
Cissa Says: Rent the movie and Good Night!!!!!
