So last night I finally rolled off the couch to make something of myself. My voice came mostly back, my head cleared a bit, and I had much more energy than I’ve had this whole week. Isn’t that wonderful?
I wanted Brandon to take me to the movies—you know, something that didn’t require a lot of energy but would get me out of the house. He agreed. Because let’s face it, a restless wife is a difficult wife. Or is that just me?
But as we ate dinner and caught up on television, the movie time snuck right by us. I wallowed in self pity when I realized I was going to be home the entire evening. Again. But Brandon and I started to get creative. No movie? Fine. Let’s make our own movie.
It’s true. We did it.
I thought it would be fun to record the first worship song we ever played together for the church: All Who Are Thirsty. I mentioned it a few days ago, so I wondered if maybe you’d like to see us in action. Some disclaimers in case you cringe when you hear it: I just got my voice back so I’m a little pitchy. It was 10 o’clock at night. The sound isn’t a great quality. We didn’t edit. This was our first take. We haven’t practiced the song for a long time. I was sitting down. I was tired. I didn’t have the music in front of me. I have a voice like a mouse. Does that cover it?
Ok. Here it is. B&C Media, LLC in full effect.
I think we may do this again. What songs should we sing?
You guys are so cute and Mark and I think you sound GREAT………..
You look so adorable and I think you sound great. Can you sing anything from Nancy Sinatra? Can Brandon play, “These Boots are Made for Walking?” I love how you keep smiling at your handsome man.
Thanks for the encouragement, guys! And mom, I’ll see what I can do. : )
That was probably the most adorable thing I’ve seen all week. You both sounded great! And I loved your facial expressions at the very end, like, “Hey, how’d we do?”
Oh, and I’m with your mom — it was super precious how you looked at him all lovey-dovey. Melts my heart!
Thanks, Tabitha! Does Joe sing? Because it would be so fun to see you guys post a video too. I’ve heard your Romanian hymn–I’m itching for more!
you look really happy.

Nice facial expressions, Carrie! Were you playing, too, or just singing? Your niece was dancing while we listened. (-:
Just singing. (Can’t you tell?) We only had one guitar, so I prefer B to play. And I hope you’ve been singing while you’re pregnant. It will help baby to have an ear for music. It’s true.
I loved it! You guys are too cute.
