Here goes nothing...
Day 1: Your favorite song.
Picking just one favorite song would just be a crime for me considering I absolutely LOVE music & have a wide range of favorites.  I like everything from classic rock, hip hop, pop, country, contemporary christian, and alternative.  So per true Shannon fashion...I'll mix up the rules & list a few..in no particular order.

A classic. How can you NOT love this song?  Brings back soooo many college memories.


Colbie Calliat..one of my favorite artists of all TIME. so organic and real.




You might kill me for posting this video..but I couldn't find a better version.  Oh well...my husband and I both adore OAR.  I think it's against the law to not..


And lastly...I leave you with one of the most influencial songs in my LIFE. Greg and I saw Brandon Heath in concert once & let's just say..I am forever changed.  I've wrote about this song before on this blog, but man, I so desperately have a longing for missions, both foreign & domestic, and this song only magnified that.


Back tomorrow with favorite movie(s). Happy Saturday!

Aww Hey Girl is what broke the ice between Doc and me :). I love OAR, I've seen them live 15 times - it's a bit of an obsession.
