Celtic Woman!! GIVEAWAY!!!!


I love Celtic Woman! My husband actually introduced me to their music (and Celtic music altogether) several years ago! We watch their specials on PBS and really enjoy them! (My husband is a bagpiper)

If you're not familiar with them, Celtic Woman is an all-female singing group featuring vocalists Chloë Agnew, Lisa Kelly, Lisa Lambe and Celtic violinist Máiréad Nesbitt. They perform classic Irish songs (“Green Grow the Rushes"), timeless pop anthems (“Bridge Over Troubled Water"), and inspirational songs (“Ave Maria”) with their signature Celtic Woman twist.

They have a new album that just came out TODAY! Called "Believe"
I am so excited to listen to it! Here is a link to one of the songs on the album called "Teir Abhaile Riu" I LOVE IT!! They are also starting a new tour and have a DVD available of their concert - watch the trailer HERE! This concert features a 20 piece orchestra, 7 piece Celtic Woman Band, 16 piece Atlanta Bag Pipe Band; lush vocal harmonies from a 10 piece Aontas Choir, 30 member children’s choir and featuring a world champion Irish dancer formerly a lead performer in Riverdance! Hopefully we will be able to go to the concert when it comes to Utah in April! Here are their tour dates.

Okay here's the good stuff!! I get to giveaway 2 great prizes to 2 great readers!!

Renovating a Home

Guest post by Gerard Mcdaniel

My husband and I just bought our first home, and we are so excited about everything. It took us a really long time to save up for the down payment, and we can’t wait to start with the renovations we want to do. We are going to gut the kitchen and put in all new appliances first. The next thing we want to do is re-do all of the bathrooms because they are all pretty old. Good thing my husband is very handy. We’re going to save t on because we’re doing everything ourselves. A neighbor suggested we go to www.totalalarmsystems.com and get set up with a home alarm. We hadn’t even thought about doing something like that, but it’s a great idea. We want to feel safe in our new home, and getting an alarm is definitely one way we could try to protect our home and assets. I can’t wait until we finally have all of our ducks in a row so our life can get back on a routine. This whole process of buying a homereally takes up a lot of your time and energy.
