my niece... the actress!

Saw LPHS's "The Music Man" yesterday with my mom and Chase and 'oh man!' do they put on a show. The set was amazing, the cast awesome, and my niece, Amy Marie, was the cutest of them all!!!

Keep on following your dreams, Amy. You are going to go far and accomplish much in this life. You are smart, pretty, and totally engaging. The whole package! I am so proud of you. Break another leg today and for the rest of your shows that follow in the coming weeks.
I love you sweetie!
Aunt Robyn

my heart remains lovin' you

"Tighten Up" ~ The Black Keys

I wanted love, I needed love,
Most of all, most of all
Someone said true love was dead
And I'm bound to fall, bound to fall
For you
But what can I do?

Take my badge but my heart remains
Lovin' you, baby child
Tighten up on your reigns
You're runnin' wild, runnin' wild
It's true

Sick for days in so many ways
I'm achin' now, I'm achin' now
It's times like these I need relief
Please show me how, show me how
To get right

When I was young and moving fast
Nothing slowed me down, slowed me down
Now I let the others pass
I've come around, come around

Living just to keep going
Going just to stay sane
All the while never knowing
It's such a shame

I don't need to get steady
I know just how I feel
I'm telling you to get ready
My dear
