time for an update

wow...how can i go from an update everyday to no update for 2 weeks?!!?!
seriously though my life has been...on the road. and that can throw a person off. since the first day of this month (march, right?!!) i have been traveling with my hubs. for the most part, it has been great. being able to spend time with him, seeing what he loves to do, meet some very generous people, and seeing how the band's new music is helping so many people. who can complain, right?
well apparently, i can. just about the lack of sleep though. i don't think that makes me a bad person. being pregnant naturally makes you a little more on edge and when you throw in lack of sleep, well you get the picture. but not to toot my own horn, i think i did pretty well. no crying. no yelling. all in all i was a pretty chill pregnant girl. (but seriously no more sleeping on a bus for me for a long time) :)

lets go back to all the positives. you really should check out Sanctus Real's new cd "pieces of a real heart" there are so many moving songs on it (my favs being "forgiven", "lead me", and "i'll show you how to live") i kid you not i got teary eyed every night hearing these great songs. (for all the moms or soon to be moms the beginning lyrics of "i'll show you how to live" are "i heard the sound of your first breath. a brand new life on your mother's chest. a beating heart, expectant eyes, on the first day of your life" *tear*)

another great thing about this trip is happening right now. i am in bakersfield, ca visiting pete's family. getting to spend time with his parents, brother and sis in law and grandma prevost has been so so nice. although we all wish pete could be here too but the tour had to keep on going and he is up in seattle right now. he won't be home to nashville till the 21st. gosh that feels so far away. it is so hard when the trips to play shows are so long, but getting to go out and see the response from so many people helps me. it helps me realize this is what God wants him to be doing and what He has gifted them all to do. i have never been so proud of pete.

so yes i am in california and will be going home to nashville either monday or tuesday. although it will be sad to say goodbye to fam, i am excited to get back. i miss my cats, my bed, my friends. 2 weeks is a long time to be away but i won't forget any of it. such a great time!

*coming soon...20 weeks update!!!

*also watch the "forgiven" video...pete looks hot and all playing the banjo and keys :)
