Day 15: Redo

So AGAIN I couldn't find a video that would work in the us or post to blogger so if you are so inclined you can look it up!

I doubt any of you are that invested... Haha I guess though you could just be curious.

This really took a while for me. Dale and I have been scouring our iTunes library searching for a song that describes me. He thought of this one but didn't think I would like his suggestion but i had been thinking it too! ha ha so here it is.

A song that describes me is : Kate Nash- Mouthwash

I love listening to it mostly because I am a HUGE fan of that accent she has. But also the song is really fun! ha ha

Call Me Crazy One More Time...

My new favorite pictures of the girls.

Don't worry. Her buck teeth aren't always that prominent. ha

Don't worry. She is ALWAYS this goofy.

Day 15: Song Challenge

Day 15 is supposed to be a song that describes me. I can NOT think of one. I have tried. I don't know why I cant think of one... but that's why I am a day off on this.

Maybe I need help with this one.

I think I know what Dale would pick. After all, it is the song he has programmed to be his ring tone for when I call. He says it describes me perfectly but that song is in Portuguese and he is biased and the song is from the view point of the boy in love so that doesn't help me.

I am trying to think of some awesome funky song and not a cheesy one but I cant think of anything.

I will put some more thought into this. we will see. Maybe I will do this one at the end and just keep going on with the challenge...

Day 14: song Challenge

Day 14: A song no one would expect me to love

Metallica - Nothing else matters.

Growing up I got introduced to a huge variety of music. Metallica was one of those bands played often in our house in one or more of my brothers rooms. My all time favorite of Metallica's is Enter Sandman but I couldn't find a video for that song that could play on blogger. Any Metallica song will pretty much do though. I find the music relaxing. Especially this song...

Day 13: Song Challenge

Day 13: My guilty pleasure song.

I couldnt find a video that worked on blogger so I guess you will just have to find it yourself. hahaha
I refused at first to listen to this song simply because of principal ;) but i heard it somewhere and I had to get it and put it on a cd. The girls love it and it cracks me up to see Mak sing along with it. It really is too cute. I will put a video of that up soon.

The song?

Justin Beiber- Baby.

Ya, I just said that....

Day 12: Song Challenge

Day 12: a song from a band you hate 

Mumford and Sons - Little Lion Man

I know I have different taste in music. At least Dale thinks a lot of my choices are weird... But either way, I cant stand this band. I am not sure why. The sound just bugs me. Or maybe its because they play the guitar with a violin bow... not sure. Either way I have no idea why so many people enjoy them...

Day 11: Song Challenge

Day 11: A song from your favorite band.

Brick By Boring Brick - Paramore

Day 10 Song Challenge

Day 10: A song that makes you fall asleep

Katie Costello - Isn't it Lovely

Just listen to it. I am 100% sure it will make you a little sleepy. And in the studio version there is a saxophone playing in the background... Even more snooze inducing.

Day 9 Song Challenge

Day 9: A song that you can dance to.
The Ting Tings - Shut Up and Let Me Go

When I first heard this song I couldn't stand it. Then when it was a free download on iTunes either Dale or I got it. Now, I know this probably isn't the best song word wise to dance along with your kids to, with all the "shut-ups" but the girls and I love the beat and we hop and and down and dance around to it all the time! It really settles a grumpy mood to have a good dance session with my girlie's!

Day 8 Song Challenge

Day 8 Song Challenge: A song you know all the words to.

Bare Naked Ladies : one week

I know all the words to a lot of songs but it has taken me a week to figure out a song that's actually impressive that I can sing ll the way through.  Dale cant believe I can sing this fast. He still think I am just slurring noises to sound like I am doing it.

Sure its impressive but I'm not sure I should be proud ;)

Day 7 Song Challenge

Day 7: A song that reminds you of a certain event.
Natasha Bedingfield: These Words (I Love You)

This song reminds me of my honeymoon.
This song had just started playing on the radio and as we drove to and from Flagstaff and around Flagstaff we heard it a lot. Then one day we turned on the tv to MTV and this music video played. Every time we happened to turn the tv on, this music video was on. Dale was in love with it because he had only been home from his mission from Rio De Janeiro for 5 months and this video is shot on the Copacabana Beach! It honestly made him quite homesick to watch it. Still does....

Day 6: Song Challenge

Day 6: Song Challenge- A song that reminds you of somewhere.

I loosely translated this.
I haven't been much of anywhere and really the only song that reminds me of a place I have been is California by Phantom Planet.... I wasn't gonna go there, so this is what I came up with!

The Format- The First Single (you know me)

This song puts me back in time to two different places.
1. Driving around in high school with all my friends blasting this song (or any other Format song for that matter) as loud as we could with our windows down and clapping along with the song!

2. Neds Krazy Sub. I worked there for a couple years in high school and when I worked nights this song seemed to always be in rotation while we were closing up. It kept us active, moving and awake after a long night.

Day 5: Song Challenge

Day 5: A song that reminds you of someone.

Every time I hear this song I think of my best friend Ashley Mortensen that passed away just over 2 years ago. When the song first came out I remember her and I trying to figure out what the song meant. We came up with a lot of things. Most of the things we came up with made no sense. :)  Mostly we just tried to figure out if it was a good love song or otherwise... whatever that meant. 

Gravity: Sara Bareilles

And I am sort of in love with this video. So different.

Day 4: Song Challenge

Day 4: A Song that makes you sad.

The first time I heard this song I cried. More than I think I had with any song before. I think because I could relate so well with it. I heard this song and immediately felt like I was back in jr high. Awkward and hated by almost all those around me. Judged and threatened by anyone who would look at me. I spent those 3 years of my life hiding. There were a select few friends (and by select I mean 3 that I can name personally besides my family) that pulled me out of my slump and allowed me to be who I really was.

Marie Digby: Miss Invisible

Song Challenge- Day 3

Day 3: A song that makes you happy

If there is one song that can put a smile on my face, no matter what my mood, this is it.

Fun and quirky.
