Prais Songs for little hearts

Little Lil' moved up to the bigger nursery this week and they gave us a sheet explaining some things about it. One of them was a list of some songs that they will be singing in the nursery.

I think that she may know most of them already from the Veggie Tails sing along's that she sings with her sister so much.

But now I think I decided that I want to learn how to play them on the Guitar. (hopefully they aren't too difficult to play:)

And thankfully there aren't too many of them!
There are some others that I don't know if I have ever heard, I will work on these and maybe the Kids can teach me the others!

Guitar Lessons

Well, I can't claim that I will ever have any sort of mastery over Guitar. But I did get to live in a house just off campus once where everyone but me was a musician.

During that time I was inspired to buy a guitar. One of our friends helped me find a nice acoustic for cheep. I never really learned how to play, but I did learn a few songs by reading Tab's and how to play a few cords.

SO... Cara said that I should try to learn how to play if I really am interested in it, which I am.

She sent me these three links to online guitar lessons to try to shake off the dust before I go all out and realize I hate it.

I liked this one most but then the theory became too much. The first three lessons were really good. Getting to know how the scales work on the strings could be really helpful though if I could be disciplined enough about it. I did really appreciate the beginning theory though and learning the Cowboy cords. Now I can pick it up and with my sheet of paper sound like the Guitar is being played even when I am not playing a specific song.

This one just seems intimidating because when you first come this video is showing someone play this cool slick.

Not sure about this one yet. Haven't really had time to evaluate it.

Skillet Comatose Tour

Nothing beats getting to go to a concert for a band that you love a the last minute...

Skillet was just stunning live at 3*. Thousand Foot Krutch was ok in c0ncert, but Skillet was really grate. It was fun to go hang out with my buddy Will. I think this is the first concert I have been to since 5Fe went under.

I also have to give mad props to my wife for taking the hit for me on a night when I usually hang out with the girls. With less than 24 hours notice she stepped in and let me go see her favorite band without a second thought.

I love being out at 3* in Minneapolis.
I would attach a picture but... for some reason the Cell Phone pics didn't show up so well from in the middle of the mash pit.

Rock on.
