2.8 Love - Presents!

Bestest Friend and I are in the middle of a blog project. Each day of the month we will post a picture on a pre-determined theme and write a little something about it. The theme for the eighth day of each month is "Love."

***************************
I have a friend who really should have been in Nashville with us – she loves music and shares my enthusiasm for country music, especially.  I felt badly that she wasn’t with us on our trip, so I’ve been spending oodles of my free time creating Grand Ole Opry playlists (current members only for now – I’m going to work on a more definitive collection throughout history at a later date) and I finally just bought all the songs I didn’t already have and put them together. I’m going to mail these to her to assuage some of my guilt that she wasn’t with us.
 
 
One of Dr. BB’s cousins just had a baby, a baby they’ve been trying desperately to have as long as I’ve known this couple. So I also just sent my standard baby present along to them in the mail – a few burp cloths from Dodge Boys Mom Etsy shop and a rattle from Smiling Tree Toys*. I also included a CD for them, entitled Songs Kids Might Like that Don’t Suck.  It’s mail day today, my friends!!

*As always, I get paid nothing for mentioning these things. I love them and they are standard presents for new babies around my house.  No affiliate links used.

  1. Nashville sounded awesome! I once went to Dollywood with my four hundred cousins.

    I just put all my CDs on my Mp3 player. I discovered some radical relics: "Who Did They Think He Was" by Conway Twitty, "All the Gold in California" by The Gatlin Brothers, and, most importantly, the song I headbanged to as soon as it came on, "Bigger than the Beatles" by Joe Diffie. It was, I don't think I have to tell you, glorious.
