11th Hour CD Release TODAY! #11thHour #SouthernGospel

Hey all, just a quick note to share some exciting news with you all (at least for any southern Gospel fans)! 11th Hour's new cd, Silence The Stones, officially released today so it is now available for purchase on iTunes! I was sent a pre-release cd to give a listen, and it is definitely an album you will enjoy! 11th Hour is made up of Jaquita Lindsey, Amber Lynn Eppinette, and Grant Gibson. This trio has a sound reminiscent of the Martins or the Crabbs, yet without that "We're copycatting a group's sound" effect. I love the vocal blend this group has: distinct, fresh, and definitely one that will keep you listening for hours.

Silence The Stones is a full-length album with 10 songs, ranging from big ballads to slow, meaningful songs, and the upbeat, toe-tapping tunes such as I'll Be The First One. There's even a hint of bluegrass sound on God Will Deliver Me, giving a full range of musical style. Lyrically speaking, my favorite is probably Let Grace In. This song provides encouragement for those who feel they have failed in life by giving into temptation when they know better, or perhaps someone who has strayed from the Lord for a time. "In the midst of your struggle, God is standing close to you. He said He would never leave you and that the wrong can be made new..." This is a song you will find yourself listening to over and over!

Another one of my favorites, and quite possibly the most unique song on the album, is I Want You Beside Me. This tells the story of someone who is fighting a battle, going through a trial, or maybe just dealing with everyday life. They realize it can't be done on their own, so they call on a friend to pray for and with them, knowing this friend will intercede on their behalf. I love this theme! Knowing someone is praying for you is one of the best and yet most humbling feelings in the world, and this song will remind us all to be that prayer warrior our friends need so desperately.

Baby First TV 'I Can Sign" First Words

Hey Neighbors! Here is a really neat gift idea for someone with a young child. Here we have I Can Sign (First Words) from Baby First TV. Now, I am just going to share right here that we have friends who have taught two of their children to sign at a very young age. And it works! Their children could sign before they could talk. The Dvd will teach your child many useful words that will be used in day to day life. Words like: eat, water, milk, cookie, ear, feet hands, kiss, sleep, book, mother, father, and many other words. Each word is taught in a short video clip where they will see pictures of the word/item and people signing. There is also a little character at the bottom corner of the video signing along. The Dvd can be done on English or Spanish. Also included on the Dvd are printable coloring pages that you can print off by inserting the Dvd into your computer. Inside the cover of the Dvd case is a little booklet that covers some of the words you and your child

What To Do About Those Fuzzy Uninvited Guests In The Home

When we talk about pests in the home, the most common that we tend to deal with are the creepy-crawlies that find their way in. Ants, termites, and spiders, for instance. Occasionally though, you have a real chance of getting a much bigger, fuzzier unwanted guest in the home. What do you do about the fact your home is at risk of becoming a wildlife sanctuary for some truly unhealthy and even dangerous beasts? Picture by Alexas_Fotos Know the signs It doesn’t matter if you’re in a suburban home, a country cottage, or a fourth-floor apartment. Some animals can find their way just about anywhere. It’s worth knowing the signs of pest infestation so you can confirm it and act on it immediately. Spotting droppings, keeping an ear out for scratching, and looking for signs of nesting like shredded paper, scrunched leaves, and grass clippings around the home without explanation can help you start fighting back.
