Mat Kearney is sooo awesome! I stumbled upon his music a few years ago and am addicted to his voice :-). Love your list, I will make one for myself. Thanks for the inspiration!

I'm playing catch up on your blog! First, I LOVE The Head and the Heart- they're a great up and coming PNW band. Second, I feel like a huge part of my life these past couple of months and in the coming months is 'saying yes.' It's almost vital to my happiness and success as a volunteer in Morocco. I've found that saying yes enthusiastically and often has led me to things, relationships, and experiences that are absolutely incredible.

I'm telling myself yes that I don't have to say yes to every committee at my son's school, that it's okay for me not to agree with everyone, and that darn it, yes, I matter.
