The Perfect Song

I know I'm writing about wedding planning and house building a lot, but this I my blog and I want to keep record of everything. I only have a couple of friends that even know about this blog. (If you do read, leave a comment soI know who's reading about my life.) I didn't start it for people to read. I started it to keep track I the things going on in my life. Sort of like my diary. If people read I'm fine with that too.

So back to the perfect song. I've been goggling and listening to songs for our wedding. I don't really want all the traditional songs you hear at every wedding. I've not made final decisions on most of them, but I came across the perfect song for my dad and I to dance to. I have never heard it before but everytime I listen to it I get tears in my eyes. The first couple of times I literally cried. The lyrics are perfect and so us. Anyways. The song is called I'll Walk with You by Edwin McCain. Here are the lyrics and a link to the song. If you stumble cross this here post and need a great father daughter song, here it is. I love the fact that it's not the usual father daughter dance song. Or it hasn't been at any weddings I've been to.

Walk With You by Edwin McCain
Chorus
I’ll take this slow sweet walk with you
You’ll let go of my hand to say: I do
He will discover just how blessed a life can be
I know cuz all those years ago
Someone handed you to me

Every step that we take
Brings back the memories
Winter snows and horse shows
Dancing on the beach
I can’t help thinking that I’m the lucky one
You’re still my baby daughter
And now I’ve gained a son

Chorus
I’ll take this slow sweet walk with you
You’ll let go of my hand to say : I do
He will discover just how blessed a life can be
I know ‘cause all those years ago

Your mom handed you to me

Don’t miss a chance to put each other first
Now that you’ve vowed for better or for worse
Don’t let the beauty of this life pass you by
In the times of trouble you’ll stand side by side

Chorus
I’ll take this slow sweet walk with you
You’ll let go of my hand to say : I do

I picture a slow sweet walk yet to be
When you’ll take my hand and say : Daddy come see
Then you’ll know what it felt like
You won’t believe what it feels like
Then you’ll know what it felt like
When she handed you to me

She handed you to me

Football Merchandise

It's football season and Walmart has all their Razorback merchandise out. I was browsing the aisle the other day and saw these. I immediately thought whiskey! A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

Pool Time!

We spent the weekend at our friends' pool. We took the dogs with us Sunday so they could have a play date. M and B have to pit bulls that are so sweet. Nahla, the youngest one, loves to play! They were also puppy sitting the cutest beagle ever!  They absolutely love going places! They were waiting in the car while I was loading our things.  I've never been able to get Hatfield in the pool, but Lilly loves it. She started off just sitting on the steps and one day she just jumped in. So, now she jumps in every now and then to cool off. Kev mixed up refreshing peach mojitos (I guess I've had major peach craving lately) this weekend. I'd share the recipe but that's his job. I never really know what all goes into what I'm drinking. I just know it's delicious!
