Steven Curtis Chapman, Christian singer/songwriter, and family have lost their beautiful baby girl, Maria. A tragic accident on Wednesday killed little Maria. Their 17 year old son was backing out of the driveway and didn't see 5 yr old Maria. Many members of the family witnessed it. If you are a praying person please lift this family up in prayer.
This song had me at 'oh, my soul'.
The dancers are Canadian Champions Myles Munroe and Tessa Cunningham based in Vancouver, BC. This is improvised (not choreographed) social dancing. Unfortunately, this vid cuts off abruptly at 1:05.
Song playing in the background is Come Back by Josh Rouse. I love this song. I've downloaded it on iTunes.
FYI: To my fellow Vox neighbors who like So You Think You Can Dance, as much as I do, the new season begins next month! Yay!
George Phillips of Meridian, Mississippi was going up to bed when his
wife told him that he'd left
the light on in the garden shed, which she could see from the bedroom
window.
George opened the back door to go turn off the light but saw that
there were people in the shed stealing things.
He phoned the police, who asked 'Is someone in your house?' and he
said 'no'. Then they said that all patrols were busy, and that he
should simply lock his door and an officer would be along when
available. George said, 'Okay,' hung up, counted to 30, and phoned
the police again.
'Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people
stealing things from my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about
them now because I've just shot them.' Then he hung up.
Within five minutes three police cars, an Armed Response Unit, and an
ambulance showed up at the Phillips' residence and caught the
burglars red-handed.
One of the Policemen said to George: 'I thought you said that you'd
shot them!'
George said, 'I thought you said there was nobody available!'
(True Story) I LOVE IT - Don't mess with old people!!
You'll need to set aside 8:55 to watch this video. It's worth the time. Enjoy and be blessed. I saw this video on My_BBOS blog.
Wintley Phipps gives a brief lesson on history and use of certain piano keys, and a brief discussion on the history of the song 'Amazing Grace'. He then proceeds to sing it beautifully. What a voice! Wintley Phipps is President of U.S. Dream Academy, an organization for children of prisoners.
What was the best blog post you wrote this year?
The post entitled, First Kiss, was my favorite simply because my desire for that kiss was four (4) long months in the making. What an amazing moment, that first kiss. There have been many kisses since but to this day I do not take them for granted.
I've been talking too long about getting a better camera. This photo is a little blurry. The Hawk was 30 feet away from my computer desk window this morning. He's checking out the pond and shoreline, at least that's what he told me. :-)
I will submit another comparison photo when we have our first heavy snow, if I can get out there.
I saw this on my Vox neighbors site and want to share it with you. Enjoy.
