Special Stuff

I don't think Holly reads my blog anymore.. or at that she's grounded right now so she won't see it anyway, so I think I'm safe to tell you guys about this because I have to get it off of my chest :)

So, our trip. I'm spending a lot of time with Holly, and she's so dang kind to even invite me to this concert with her, that I thought I'd get her a little thank you present. It's definitely not much, just a little something to thank her for all that she does for me. I got her guitar picks :) Personalized ones, in her favorite color. They have her name on the front and on the back it says "Little Miss You'll Go Far..". I am soooooooo excited to give them to her you have no idea. I got an email that they were shipped today... so when I get them I may be uploading pictures as they are soooo dang cute, or at least they were in the preview. I really hope she likes them.

In other words, I'm still dying. Yesterday I was coughing so hard I started throwing up. That was pleasant. Didn't get to bed until around one in the morning and then was up again at 3:30 doing the same thing.. thankfully my mom let me sleep in until noon today so I wasn't too worn out. Had a busy day today other than that.

Provo got it's first commercial airline flight for the first time on Monday. My dad and I went to the whole grand ceremony thing . We're so dorky... that is how we spend family night :) It was pretty cool being practically on the runway as the plane landed. We're excited for the flight.. my dad and I are taking it out to Denver in July or August. Nice for a weekend get away without all the costs of the SLC airport.

I do have bad news. My baby.... my acoustic Washburn sunburst guitar that I got for my birthday last year.. has a big chip in it. I was playing next to my computer, set it down, and then bumped my recording software box and it fell on top of it. It's right above the rosette (the sound hole...), next to the neck. It's just this big white ugly mark that looks really bad when I perform at gigs. It's sound has also been falling short a bit.. when I get up to the higher notes it sounds squeaky so I'm probably going to take it in and see if they can fix my hole and my string problems.

I uploaded a new cover on my channel yesterday. Go check it out if you'd like.... look at the last blog post for my link to want to and then find it from there because I'm too tired to go get the link all over again :) It's still not my best as I'm still sick... but hey, one of these days, we'll be back to normal. I'm playing guitar in this one though so that was fun.

I'm super excited for Stadium of Fire next week... we go every year and it's my favorite part of the entire summer, last year probably my favorite part of the entire year. My friend Vivian and I went to it together last year and I'm hoping she can come to it again this year. She's a special girl and it so much fun to be around. Brad Paisley is coming this year.. LOOVE him. I applied for a Meet and Greet on his fan page so I'm praying I get one. I might die if I do :)

If I could ask you guys... my friend Zowie Kile who I introduced you to in this blog post has gone into the hospital for her fourth relapse of cancer. The doctors told her today that the chemotherapy can no longer help her, so they're sending her home. Without a miracle she won't live for very long. As for me, I believe in miracles and I believe that if every person that reads this blog post actually asks God to comfort her.. we might get a miracle.

Now, if you're reading this, I'd like to congratulate you on making it to the end of this very long blog post.
I'm very happy you were able to live through my annoying jabbering. I love you (that just made it all worth it, didn't it) ;) Have a fabulous weekend! Xox!

Little Miss Erika
