ICYMI: Thomas Rhett and his wife Lauren have teamed up with one of my favorite Nashville brands, Project 615, to design the limited edition "Home Team" t-shirt! All profits will benefit the non-profit 147 Million Orphans! Hurry up and order one today before they're gone!

The weekend has FINALLY come for The Maine concert! 

I have been closely watching every Snapchat/Instagram story they've posted so far this tour to piece together the set list. Excited is an understatement!

Speaking of The Maine...I've been listening to one of their openers the Orphan, the Poet this week getting ready for Saturday night and they're amazing!

Friday 4/21

Or is it always in the blood?

How much of my mother has my mother left in me?

How much of my love will be insane to some degree?

And what about this feeling that I'm never good enough?

Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?

How much of my father am I destined to become?

Will I dim the lights inside me just to satisfy someone?

Will I let this woman kill me, or do away with jealous love?

Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?

I can feel the love I want, I can feel the love I need

But it's never gonna come the way I am

Could I change it if I wanted, can I rise above the flood?

Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?

How much like my brothers, do my brothers wanna be?

Does a broken home become another broken family?

Or will we be there for each other, like nobody ever could?

Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?

I can feel the love I want, I can feel the love I need

But it's never gonna come the way I am

Could I change it if I wanted, can I rise above the flood?

Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?

I can feel the love I want, I can feel the love I need

But it's never gonna come the way I am

Could I change it if I wanted, can I rise above the flood?

Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?

Good Friday 4/14

Best Running Songs

In 17 days I will run my third half marathon! After signing my confirmation sheet this afternoon there's no turning back. 

I know some people, like my brother, can't run with music at all. I however cannot stand the sound of my own breathing and must have it, especially when you're running for two hours straight. 

I've been building my playlist since I signed up for the race back in March and currently have 57 songs ready to go. So in honor of 17 days till race day, here are 17 tracks I can't run without!
