HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAMA!!!
So, there probably won't be many post until the first-middle of next week due to there being no internet at my grandmother's house. I know that you all will feel so neglected, but know that you will be in my heart! ;-)
But before I go, I want to leave you with a wonderful Friday afternoon song. I refused to download it for a long time because it was just too popular, and since I hadn't really heard it that much, I didn't know what the fuss was over. But this afternoon I broke down and got it off iTunes. It's been on repeat ever since. And since you guys aren't here to enjoy hearing it played over and over and over and over.... again, I figured I'd post it here for you all to enjoy.
So often we get caught up in things that don't matter, and lose sight of the things that are vitally important. I have to admit, that if I made a list of all the simple things that make me happy it would be very similar to Zac Brown's... Fried Chicken (boneless and dipped in honey mustard, please), A pair of jeans that fit just right, the look Jay gets in his eyes when I walk through the door, the love of my family, the love i have for my child(ren) who aren't even here yet, the men and women making sure I'm free.
Anyway, watch the video, read the lyrics, and make a list of your own (feel free to share it with us in the comments), and I'll be back with some post about the weekend and my trip to the mountains next week.
Happy Friday everyone and have a great weekend!

You know I like my chicken fried
Cold beer on a Friday night
A pair of jeans that fit just right
And the radio up
Well I`ve seen the sunrise
See the love in my woman`s eyes
Feel the touch of a precious child
And know a mother`s love
Well I was raised up beneath the shade of a Georgia pine
And that`s home you know Sweet tea pecan pie and homemade wine
Where the peaches grow
And my house it`s not much to talk about
But it`s filled with love that`s grown in southern ground
And a little bit of chicken fried
Cold beer on a Friday night
A pair of jeans that fit just right
And the radio up
Well I`ve seen the sunrise
See the love in my woman`s eyes
Feel the touch of a precious child
And know a mother`s love
And its funny how it`s the simple things in life that mean the most
Not where you live or what you drive or the price tag on your clothes
There`s no dollar sign on a piece of mind this I`ve come to know
So if you agree have a drink with me
Raise you glasses for a toast
To a little bit of chicken fried
Cold beer on a Friday night
A pair of jeans that fit just right
And the radio up
Well I`ve seen the sunrise
See the love in my woman`s eyes
Feel the touch of a precious child
And know a mother`s love
I thank God for my life
And for the stars and stripes
May freedom forever fly, let it ring.
Salute the ones who died
The ones that give their lives so we don`t have to sacrifice
All the things we love
Like our chicken fried
Cold beer on a Friday night
A pair of jeans that fit just right
And the radio up
Well I`ve seen the sunrise
See the love in my woman`s eyes
Feel the touch of a precious child
And know a mother`s love
