Soundcheck!

Every time I go to a concert with Lani, I reenact a part of an old Wayne's World SNL skit for her. Usually if I try this joke with anyone else, they don't get it. Most of my friends were not watching SNL around the time of Wayne's World to really get this joke. But since I wanted to be like my sisters so bad, I was. I have found very few people who appreciate my reenactment like Lani does.

Well, I FINALLY found the skit!! I happened on it randomly.

It's at about 4:25. Tom Hanks is the roadie and he is doing soundcheck. It's awesome.



Thank you Hulu.

Ben Folds - University A Capella

This is pretty cool. It comes out next week. Granted, not all of my favorite songs will be on there, and some songs I kinda don't really like...BUT it's still pretty sweet.

And in May Ben Folds is coming to the HOB so I'm pretty excited to see him live again.

You're Hawaiian?!

Yes.

Yes, I am.

And to prove it (which really isn't proof whatsoever, but go with me here), I have been on a Hawaiian music kick lately.

For the past two days I've been listening to:

(sorry for the small size, I couldn't find anything bigger)

iTunes Link

I love this album. It reminds me of my childhood, when we did stuff as a family or especially when my dad had it blaring on the stereo while he played the guitar. It was also one of the first live albums I listen to. I realized because of that I judge the recording quality and flow of live albums to this one a lot.

You all might know one member of the Makaha Sons of Niihau...

Israel Kamakawiwo`ole (mostly known as Iz or Brudda Izzy)



He is best known for "Somewhere Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World"...I found it for you to listen to. He has such an amazing, calming and peaceful voice.



I hope it makes your day better. It does for me whenever I listen to it, or any Hawaiian music for that matter.

Beautiful Blooming Blossoms Mini Shoot

I looooove the time of year when the trees start to bloom! The streets are lined with trees that look like cotton candy or popcorn popping! ;) I have now decided that every year when the blossoms are blooming I am going to hold a contest called "The Beautiful Blooming Blossoms". The contest winners will get a free half hour to 45 minute mini shoot with me and the beautiful blooming blossoms (hence the name)!

I only decided this after I did a mini shoot with some amazing friends of mine!

Brett, Jamie and their cute one year old Owen! It was great to catch up with their cute family, talk about old times and just hang out! I love them a ton!


Isn't Owen so stinkin' cute!!!


My favorite shot:

My second favorite...loooove the lighting:





Brett, Jamie & Owen...THANK YOU!!! I had such a great time! I am blessed knowing awesome people like you!
