I had remembered I wanted to blog about this about a month ago when I first heard about it. I thought it was appropriate with Independence Day coming up.Let me introduce you to Salute the Brave. Salute the Brave is a company a USC student started as a project for a class. Every Friday I receive e-mails from different people talking about the School of Business and the Friday before Memorial Day, Ryan Morris shared his story. Here is an excerpt from the e-mail:
"I decided to try something that could be a successful business, but still give back to a great cause. Salute The Brave hats...

Patriotic WIPT
I am linking up with the lovely Sarah Elizabeth at We're Just Like You Only Prettier for a patriotic themed What I'm Playing Thursday. Love Love Love this song! Who else is reminded of the scene in The Sandlot when they are playing their one night game of the year under the fireworks?
The first time I saw Brooks & Dunn in concert this was one of the last songs, if not the last song, they sang and it was amazing especially when they brought members of the military up on stage.
Toby Keith has some great America songs.
Your Independence Day is not complete without hearing this song. I...

Summerthing!
Sunday was one of my favorite events of the summer: Summerthing!
Summerthing is a FREE concert put on by one of my favorite radio stations Alice 97.3. It takes place in this big meadow in the middle of Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. We had gone twice before to see our favorite band, Lifehouse. This year they had an awesome lineup: Andrew Allen, Parachute, Michelle Branch, Matt Nathanson, and OneRepublic.
It started at noon but we didn't care too much about seeing the first two acts. We left our house at about 11 and we got to the park around 11:50. It took us an hour to find a parking...

Traveling South of the Border
Today I am linking up with Michelle, Michelle, and Lyndsay for Tastes & Travels. They have this fun series that you should check out if you haven't already. This link-up is to show off your travels to Mexico or what you would do there or even you favorite Mexican food. Join in the fun!
I have been to Mexico quite a few times. Most of them were to Tijuana when I was little. We always go to this same restaurant that is literally underground. I actually used to be scared of going to Tijuana don't ask me why though. More recently, my family and I went to Cancun in 2005 and Mexico...

Summer's Here
For me, summer has arrived. It's finally warming up! I was so sick of all the rain and gloominess. The swim season has started too. Now all my Saturday mornings (and some Wednesday nights) will be spent at my nephew's swim meets. He swims on the same team that I swam for 14 summers. Last sign of summer: great outdoor concerts!!!
All of my summer activities will be local; unfortunately no big trips planned. Hopefully I will be able to "getaway" to some great places around here on the weekends. Do any of you have exciting plans this summer? All...

Tim McGraw/Luke Bryan Concert Pictures
Here are my pictures from the concert. Luke! <3So the majority of my pictures came out horrible. These are the best. Here's a quick story about the first two below: the way the ampitheater is set up there are these ramps that the singers can walk up if they want to. When they do everybody sitting along the aisle will run up and try to touch the singers and or try to get a picture with them. Do you all see the girl in the brown jacket? Well she was actually sitting next to me. Like 10 people in from the aisle. I didn't realize it at the time that she had made her way next...
