for the love.

I am feeling the need to come clean with you on one little subject matter.
I'm worried it might become a hindrance in our relationship if it hasn't already.
It’s just time to simply get it out of the way.
So here goes...
I own a VHS copy of ‘Riverdance.’
Providing you with a little space here to figure out what you think about this.
Feel free to laugh profusely, cry, whatever, just let it flow, I understand.

Okay. 
Take a deep breath, I’m going to move on now.
So this little gem of a tape is the main reason why we still own & operate a VCR.
I cannot tell you how many times this tape has been viewed.
It has carried us through many cold, snow-filled, windy days & maybe even a few perfectly nice days where I should have turned the tv off & forced my littles to go outside already but sometimes you just gotta Riverdance for the love of Ireland.
In the past year & a half we have actually been carried further into the fun, amazing world of Irish step dancing because my oldest absolutely loves it {her sister is soon to follow in her 'dance' steps} & we love her enough to drive 124 miles roundtrip every other week, sometimes more for lessons.
This past Monday as we were traveling to Breckenridge I realized yet again, how blessed I am to call the mountains home.
I may drive 2.5 hours roundtrip for a 45 minute dance lesson but the scenery along the way is spectacular.


Something tells me I'd have to try a whole lot harder to enjoy the view driving across the Panhandle of Texas every other week {although the multiple Dairy Queen stops would surely be a bonus}.
I am thankful for the places the people in my life take me.
& I am grateful for the sparkly views along the way.
ps. Happy March!
