Relaxing, Free Song and followers!

Hey!
So about 45 mins ago my mom said to my little sister and little brother and I- "ok lets find a movie and we are just going to chill for a while".... it isn't really like my mom to say something like this but I'm not complaining! ;) So my mom and little brother are asleep on the couch and my little sis is watching Curious George and I'm taking this time to write a blog post :)
It feels like its been a really long week but it really hasn't. Maybe because its so hot and because we've had a few thunderstorms the past few days, its humid. Maybe its because I'm still in my pjs and haven't really done anything with my hair today except through it into a messy ponytail( please note that just because I'm homeschooled that doesn't mean I don't get otu of my pjs all day long, I do get dressed in "day clothes" as my siblings call them, in the morning! i do not wear my pajamas all day like some people think!;) There could be a lot of reasons why it feels like its been a really long week. But I am tired and don't feel well and I'm welcoming the down time! OK onto more fun things :)

Ok so I love finding Christian Music websites that give away Free Christian songs!! I love it! ;P I found FreeCCM a while ago and I love all the free and legal Christian songs they give you! Right now they are giving away a brand new song from Addison Road's Stories album (that's not out yet!!).... Change in the Making.

I haven't listened to it yet but I'm sure its great! :)

I absolutely love AR's single also from Stories.... Fight Another Day. Hopefully they are some AR fans are reading this so click here to get it!( you do have to sign up to get the free songs but you only have to create a user name and password and its SO worth it!) Also by clicking on the link you can watch a video to get to know more about Addison Road and submit a question for AR to answer! pretty cool, uh? :) You can get some other great songs from FreeCCM by going to the Free Downloads page!

I have 41 followers!! I can't believe it! thanks to my newest followers :)
