Hey everyone... It's been awhile since I posted a journal, so I thought it was a good time to do so. I actually just got back from Canada... I spent just over a week up there and was able to surprise both my grandma and my sister on their birthdays! The first day home, my Dad and I pulled up the driveway and my sister saw me behind the wheel and had the surprised look on her face. She had no clue I was coming home, so that was extra cool. My parents and I ended up celebrating Andrea's birthday at a Greek restaurant down on White Ave, with a bunch of her other friends, and it was nice to visit with everyone. Do you know that Birthday stems from the Greek word Birthulia lol just kidden. I was just thinking back to the My Big Fat Greek Wedding movie when the father puts a Greek meaning to every word. Anyways, so we had a Greek meal and later on went back to my mom and dad's and just chilled out for the rest of the evening. On the 23rd, my Mom and I drove over to my Grandma and Grandpa's house where I surprised my Grandma... My Mom rang the door bell as I waited around the corner, and when my Grandma answered, I popped around the corner and said Happy Birthday! She was completely shocked, to say the least and for a second or so she couldn't hold back the tears. I was so glad that I was able to make it back. Please, I would so greatly appreciate it if you would all say a prayer for my Grandma as she's been diagnosed with cancer. She is super positive and super strong, so I have no doubt that she'll get through this once again but she could still use all of your prayers. I believe I told you guys that my dad was building a deck on the front of our house, well anyways it looks awesome!! I was able to help him put up the railing around the deck and it just added so much to it's appearance! A lot of the neighbors have commented on how good it looks as well. Well, I didn't go up there for just family reasons, I also had a show at the Rainmaker Rodeo as one of the opening acts for Dwight Yokam. It's called the Rainmaker Rodeo because it usually involves a lot of rain, but fortunately in our case it didn't rain during our show. After the Rainmaker show, my parents and I headed home and I tried to get a good nights sleep because I was flying out the next day. My flight on the 29th departed at 2:30ish so at least I didn't have to wake up super earlier like past flights I've had to do. I arrived back in the States and last night I was part of a benefit show in regards to the floods which occurred here in Nashville. It took place down at the Limelight just across from LP field and there were a bunch of other artist that showed up to support the cause as well, which was good to see the support:) I invited my buddy Curt Acuff down with me, who is also an inspiring singer, songwriter and musician, and three songs into my set I invited Curt up to do a song. He did a great job and the audience loved him:) So all in all it was a good night and I was happy to be part of it. Anyways, thanks for all the continuous support and I'll talk to you all later. God Bless!
