Ode to Music

We love music.  As I was putting together our playlist for this blog, I just couldn't help but think about how much better music makes everything.  Some of my favorite times with Will involve music - going to shows, sitting at the computer for hours reading lyrics and checking out new bands, educating each other on our favorites as we drive to/from Utah, seeing how passionate he gets when he talks about certain bands, etc. etc.  It always amazes me how music has the ability to change your mood in an instant, or bring you back to a specific time or place.  If I ever start to freak myself out (you know, after watching a scary movie or something), I just pick a primary song, sing it in my head, and I'm all set!  There are so many great songs out there that this list doesn't even scratch the surface, but hopefully you can enjoy a few of our favorites & maybe discover some new tunes from our list.  And if you don't like our taste, you can just turn it off! Hooray for music!

New Bloggers!

Hi Y'all!  The Ridd's now have a blog page!  We have really enjoyed being able to keep up with the happenings of friends and family through their blogs, so we decided to jump on the wagon and create our own.  Since we don't have kids yet, there probably won't be much on here that's too exciting, but at least I'll have something to do at work while I'm waiting for my boss to catch up with me :)  No idea how to do anything cool on here yet, so stay tuned.  Here we go!
