It was time for a change of scenery! It has been fun, but with so many changes in my life: newly married, new house, new job, new ventures….it was time!

The Face of San Fran

 

So Close….

            It is a very surreal feeling to find yourself two days from the most life-changing day of your existence. To have every detail set in place and every person on the way to get where they need to be, all to bring about such a life -altering event.

 

In two days, I am getting married.

In two days, I am marrying my best friend, the most amazing gift that I never thought I would actually find.

 

I have dreamed of this day ever since I was a little girl, every year the dress would change or the choice of colors, but two things remained the same. I would marry my best friend and I would be hopelessly in love.

 

Many decisions and choices in my life seemed to push this day further and further away from my reality, until one fateful day, I met the man I would spend the rest of my life with. At the most unexpected time, when I felt so restless in the place where my feet stood, love showed its true face. Neither of our lives have ever been the same.

 

We have packed our boxes to begin our new lives. All of the arrangements have been made and the people are beginning to filter in for the day when we start our new lives.

 

I cannot believe that I am so close.

I never thought I would see this wonderful day. 

The End of an Era

Almost eight years I have spent here, with a few in between where I was in the northwest. Now it is time for that era in my life to end. A few Sundays ago, I played my last set at Good Shepherd Church. If it wasn’t for the experiences I’ve had within these walls, so much of what I do would not be possible. It was bittersweet, yet at the same time, so much has changed and I must go. 

 

 

Hmmmm….

90/10 Benefit

This past weekend I experienced a sense of community like I never have before in my life. I wanted only to stop time and stay in that place of peace, community, and remain surrounded by the music that filled Everyday Joe’s. Friday night was spent at my own show, playing with a looper pedal, embarking upon a solo show that I had not had the guts to do. It was a very nerve racking, yet freeing experience.

Then Saturday I played a set with my lovely fiance, Ryan, for the 90/10 Benefit at Everyday Joe’s. The place was packed and never before have I felt so free and satisfied at a show. We ended the set with a cover of “Falling Slowly” from the movie “Once.” It went so well. I loved every second of it.

Also….

Ryan and I were part of a compliation record that Everyday Joe’s created to support their non-profit organization and the musical side of things that they are invovled in. Please download it. Please donate if you can. The artists on the cd are some people that I have come in contact with over the past few months. They are all amazing, they are all awesome artists and people. Help support local music and organizations!
