Honestly ... This is the time of my life

I never watched American Idol, so forgive me if you think this song is cheesy, but I recently heard it for the first time. It's amazing. It describes exactly how I've felt over pretty much the last year of my life ... there is not one part of the song that's doesn't reflect me ... a certain part of my life was so crappy for the longest time, and now I have something to be so happy and excited about - every single day. I feel so good about everything right now. Everything is coming together in a way I never thought possible. I wake up every morning happy and look forward to going to school, coming home, spending time with Chris, shooting weddings this summer, etc. We have so much in our future we're looking forward to...it's fun. And the part about the song that's my favorite its where it says "Finding my wings And all that I needed Was there all along ." Because it's true. I've known Chris for over 3 years, and its like he was right there all along, but it took us awhile to finally realize we were supposed to be together!

And of course, I CAN NOT wait until July 18th!
140 days to go!

Onto the lyrics..."Time of My Life" sung by David Cook


I’ve been waiting for my dreams
To turn into something
I could believe in
And looking for that
Magic rainbow
On the horizon
I couldn’t see it


Until I let go
Gave into love and
watched all the bitterness burn
Now I’m coming alive
Body and soul
And feelin’ my world start to turn


And I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud I know this is the time,
This is the time
To be more than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life


Holding onto things that vanished
Into the air
Left me in pieces
But now I’m rising from the ashes
Finding my wings
And all that I needed
Was there all along
Within my reach
As close as the beat of my heart
and I’ll taste every moment



And live it out loud I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life


And I’m out on the edge of forever
Ready to run I’m keeping my feet on the ground
Arms open wide
Face to the sun I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud I know this is the time,


This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
This is the time
This is the time of my life.
