That time again!














Oh dear...

Its been a while again hasn't it???

Apologies lads!!!
Well here I am!!! And boy do I have some catching up to do!!! This might take a while...
Where to start??? Well where did I leave off?? JANUARY!!! Oh my!!! I really have to get the hang of doing this more often!!

Ok...So...Yes a lot has happened since I last wrote...
I'm hoping by now most of you have seen our "Songs From The Heart" show?
Well whether you have or you haven't take it from me.... It's pretty awesome!!! Hahaha!!!
Ah I'm only joking..(not really though!! :-P !)
Obviously I am a little biased... but it just seems to be getting better and better everyday!
I swear...it's pretty cool actually!

As you know,Alex decided to take some much needed time with her family at home in Ireland...
So we changed things up AGAIN...and we've been having a ball this second leg of the tour!
It's been a little tougher for all of us in that we've got that extra little bit to do every night that we didn't have before...
But I'm not complaining....cause its been a challenge...but a blast...
And plus...I'm so worn out at the end of the day...I'm getting a great nights sleep!! HA!!

So instead of me blabbering on...
How bout I show you some pics of mine???

I know...I know...I'm a bit of a wannabe photographer...but hey...I just love photo's...
And I hear you guys like my pics too...so its all good right??? :-)

So I've done a lot of adventuring this year...
I'm very proud of my pics of me at Mount Rushmore,and Niagra Falls and one of me on a beautiful bridge in Pittsburgh! There's a pic of a gang of us at the original site of Woodstock...
Had the most amazing time there when we performed in Bethel Woods,NY!
I'm a lucky gal to have seen some of the coolest places in the whole world!

Then there's the pics of me and the gals at the EMI base in Canada,where I wandered into one of the boardrooms by accident...and stumbled across the original sheet music of the Beatles classic "Yesterday"...hand-written by Lennon and McCartney themselves...hidden in the corner!!! I totally freaked out and insisted I get a photo with it! How insanely cool is that???

And a few pics I've included are going back earlier on in the year...
One or two pre tour promo shots...
Some of them taken in NYC at GoodDay NY and Regis and Kelly on Paddy's day!! Got to meet Mindy Kaling from "The US Office"...that was soooo cool!!
And one of us having some fun at Canada AM!!

Enjoy guys...

I'll give ya a warning though.....
There's more to come!!! heehee!!!

Peace!!!! x

Going back before I can go forward....










So thought I'd show you some of the fun I had on our Fall Tour 09'.
I may not be great at blogging regularly but what I lack in that I make up for in snapping pics!!!
Anyone who knows me jokes how I was probably a Paparazzo in my last life!!! Cause all I do is take photographs all day every day!!
I love,love,love taking piccies....it's totally one of my few real passion's in life!!
My whole life is in photographs...looking back on photo's brings back a memory of that exact moment in time....and I think that's really cool!!
So I figured instead of boring you all by going into great detail of what I get up to from day to day I'd just show you some photo's instead!!! Hope that's ok!!! lol!!

The first photo is of us gals and the wonderfully talented Jim Master's at CPTV in Connecticut,taken at the end of October.We were so excited to be there because it was the first official airing of our new Songs From The Heart PBS Special.We had such a good time and I'll tell ya something,not only is Jim one of the lovliest guys I have ever met but boy is he good at what he does!!! Talented AND lovely...rare gift in this business!!!

The next two are of me and the legend Hoagy Carmichael...(not the real one sadly!) the man behind a well loved song of mine "Georgia On My Mind"...couldn't help but snap a pic when we performed in the university in Bloomington!!

I can't tell you how much fun Lynn and I had together when we headed for the West Coast for our Promo trip at the end of our Isle Of Hope Fall tour....
Lynn is totally one of the coolest people you'll ever meet....and whenever the two of us are together we are guaranteed to have a great laugh....and have too much fun!!! lol!!!
So the next few photo's are of us at KAET TV Eight in Arizona having some fun on the phones talking with PBS members,Hanging some Christmas tree decorations and sitting by the fire in Spokane,Me cuddling some fluffy penguin toys in Sea World in San Diego (soooo one of the coolest places I've ever been!!!! Definitely going back any chance I get!!!) and me at sunset at the beach in LA before Christmas!!! You have to realise,for an Irish person being able to be on the beach in late November is a very rare and wonderful thing...a moment I simply couldn't pass up on!!!! :-)

In my next blog....I'll be telling you all about the most awesome Christmas present ever...
It may have something to do with being on the same stage as Sheryl Crow,Ray Lamontagne,Jordin Sparks and a certain Mr.President Obama....

And yes....there may be photo's involved too!!!! Heeheehee!!!

In the meantime....Hope you enjoy this lot!!!!

All my love...
