  2. I refuse to watch Bitt's video - lol! That song will be stuck in my head forrreevvveerrr! ACK! ha ha!

    What a neat video with a great message. I love eagles (although, hawks are "my" bird/animal). Just saw a pair perched together recently on my way home from work. I took it as a good sign. :) But really, they were awesome.

    The HHR badge looks great on your blog! ;)

  6. This is beautiful. It reminds me to do something every day that scares me. I definitely always give it a shot, and no matter how scary it is, I always feel better once I've conquered it. Thank you for sharing this.

    lauren, i love birds, too. we're lucky to live in nj - lots of trees so lots of birds!

    vv - love that you do that. it's so important to push ourselves each day into the "uncomfortable zone". we'll never know what we're capable of otherwise!=)

  10. lol! I have seen the video a long time ago (when the guy was still in politics - Letterman always made fun of it) and as far as I know it's real. I don't even have to watch the video to get the awful song stuck in my head!

  11. Hey Kelli! How are you? I really love this video. It was perfect timing for me because I'm needing a "push" right now. Very beautiful.

    Thanks for the sweet comment on my blog. I bought a Canon Rebel about 3 months ago, and I love it! It's my baby. I really appreciate your comment about my pictures, but honestly the whole time we were on vacation I was kicking myself for not having learned how to better use it. I still have so much to learn and figure out, and I know my pictures will get better as I do. I'm planning on trying to take a photography class this summer. I still love it though, and as someone told me before I bought it - it's hard to take a bad picture with a Canon Rebel. I would definitely recommend it!

    life is beautiful with all of its hardships and struggles...the good always outweighs the bad...and i am so grateful that i have been able to leap off of a mountain top and soar many times...only to find, it really isn't THAT bad or scary...

    love ya babe...and thank you for this!

  16. Hey Kelli! Thank you for this site, it is really great. I think you would like soapnuts.
    They are vegan certified and this company sustainably harvests them. http://www.maggiespureland.com/sustainable.html They let me review their product on my blog, so I got to try them out and they are awesome! Totally soft laundry, go in the compost when I am done and I am making all my household cleaners from them to get rid of all the chemical soaps and cleaners in my house. Blessings!
