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...

  6. Pictures!! Thank you!!!! Chloe, you are so incredibly beautiful that no mere words can describe it. Seeing your images is as delightful as listening to your voice. Thank you, thank you for sharing these. Please, keep them coming!

    The old saying "a picture is worth a thousand words" is simply inadequate when it comes to your photos. In your case,a picture is worth TEN thousand words (or blog entries)!

  13. Awwww, Chloë, what a great blog!! Yes piccies are great at showing those special moments. you sure had plenty of them in 2009!! We really do appreciate your staying in touch with all of us. So glad you had a great time and have had time to recharge a bit. Your penguins brought to mind a Monty Python skit. "Is that a penguin on your telly?" Too funny. We'll see your smiling face very soon again and we wish you safe travels. Thanks for sharing your gifts with so many.

  21. Miss writing to you cuz but that's the way it goes when there are contractual obligations and rules to follow. Can't be too careful either. I talk to Karl regularly and we're still trying to piece the genealogy together. I love him.... as one family member would love another I mean. By all means enjoy the west coast beaches when you are here. I've been here all of my life and would love to see California or Florida once and the ocean. It looks beautiful.

  22. Hi Chloe,

    Now I know you like to take photos with a passion as I do; there can never be enough, and if you let one chance get away it can never be recaptured. I loved you telling us that, and showing your photos to us.

    The Roanoke “Songs From the Heart” experience was overwhelming in its beauty, and those new songs perfectly performed by each of you brought joy, and yes some tears. You caught me with the tears flowing and locked your gaze onto me with your reassuring smile that you always have for me. So beautiful; and thank you.

    What a pleasure to have you and Lisa at the Meet and Greet; and it just doesn`t get any better than that. What a joy.

    See you in Birmingham.

    Jim

    You are so... fantastic!!1
    Thank you so much for catching us up a little!!! I LOVED the photos from your last years tour!! I am going to college for photography, so I definitely know your passion for photographs. It is a way to always have your past with you. I just love it! I really wish you could see my work someday, that would make me... so happy :)


    I cannot wait for when ever you do get a chance to blog again. I will definitely be looking forward to it!

    With love,
    Sarah <3

  26. Happy Birthday Chloë!! I hope that wonderful smile of yours never leaves your face today as you spend time with the people you love! Have fun! :) ~Amy Lynn

    P.S.- I was at the show in Calgary, and was one of the hummers during Amazing Grace and You Raise Me Up. Those were a couple of the most beautiful moments I have ever been a part of, and I don't know about you girls, but I know none of us in that audience that night will ever forget it. So, thanks, and see you in August!

  27. Chloe,

    I have watched as you have grown from being a beautiful singer at the age of fifteen to your birthday today as you become 21 years old. What a transformation I have seen in you as your singing has grown to be more beautiful and you have now become a most beautiful mature woman.

    Now I will wish you a “Happy Birthday” Chloe. Wherever you are may you enjoy this day of becoming a mature woman with friends and hopefully family too, and they should all treat you as if you are “Queen for a Day” as you truly are.

    Jim
