Soundtrack Saturday-Parachute

Happy Saturday my friends!

Hope you are recovering well from any goings-on last night, maybe you got a chance to sleep in?  I know I did, and I love it!

So this band I have been a fan of for several years.  They partner with one of my favorite organizations Mocha Club.  I volunteered through MC at one of their concerts a year or so ago and met the band, they were so great!

This song makes me cry every time I hear it is kind of sad it but it’s so beautiful!  The love story is so heartbreakingly sweet, it’s amazing.

I highly suggest you give it a weekend.

Enjoy your Saturday my friends!

Love,

Keely

Happy Weekend!

Did you have a great Friday night?  I know I did!  It’s so nice to get those few days “off” (I always end up having SO much to do on weekends).

Today I’m coming at you with a song from a band that my sister introduced me to (are you seeing a pattern here, my sisters and I share a lot of music, it’s great that we all have pretty much all the same taste)

This song is such a sweet song!  It’s relaxed and romantic and all around a great song to start (or continue) your Saturday with!

Hope you enjoy it!

Love,

Keely

Weekly Wrap Up

Happy Friday!  It’s almost the weekend, we’ve almost made it!

My picture taking has significantly slowed these past few weeks, I’m sorry!  I don’t know what ‘s going on with that, but I still have some great moments to share with you today!

Nothing super exciting has happened this week, and it’s been SO busy but it’s been good.

I would also like to take a moment to thank you so much for all of your support this week!  It’s been a record week here on Hair Bows and Butter, I am so surprised and so blessed for all of your support!

Green River Ordinance!  Amazing live, such a great show.  If they come to your city you should definitely go see them!

A pretty summer pasta salad, leftovers from Father’s day, yum!

I got this great headband from Petunia Blooms, check out her store, it’s amazing!

Martini Monday!  My roommate and are going to start a new tradition (just one each ).

My lovely roomie!  Cheers to Martini Monday!

Creme brulee cupcakes? Yes please!  Look for the recipe on Friday, June 29 over on Dragonflight Dreams.

Waiting at the courthouse…so bored!

My friends and I went and saw Pirates of the Caribbean in a parking lot, super fun!  They went all out, check out the pirate ship!

Mini bundts!  Yes please!  If you live in Denver, Birds and Belles is having their grand opening party TONIGHT at 6 and these will all be there!  Yum! (Nutella and salted caramel, spiced apple and blackberry, maple bacon chocolate and spicy mango!)

Hope you enjoy!  Can’t wait to see what this next week holds!

Soundtrack Saturday-Green River Ordinance

I discovered this band a couple of weeks ago and instantly fell in love with their sound, their lyrics and pretty much everything about them.  The great news is that I totally get to go see them TONIGHT!

All of their songs are great!  It was really hard to pick just one for today (and there was a lyric that I searched all of their songs for but couldn’t find so I must have been dreaming but this is a just as amazing song!)

I’ve been listening to these guys almost all week long.  This is a great song, nice and slow and super romantic, totally breaks my heart a bit, and gives me a reason to hope!

Enjoy!

Love,

Keely

Soundtrack Saturday-The Lumineers

My sister recently sent me an email suggesting a local band. The email featured a YouTube video for this same song.

My oldest sister was instally hooked, I took a little bit longer to catch on, but now I’m in love. I love that they are from Denver, I love supporting all things local. I finally got around to finding The Lumineers on Spotify and have been jamming to their hit Ho Hey for a little while now.

The song is still not an overwhelming listen-to-it-all-the-time-song, but it is a pick-me-up and just a lot of fun, and it’s always great to share interest in the same bands with my amazing sisters.

This song is called Ho Hey and it’s by the Lumineers based out of Denver. Love!

Love,

Keely

I’m sure you’ve heard this song before, it’s been everywhere for a while now but  I still just love it.

For me it’s such an uplifting song, I love to listen to it when I need a little boost, so if you’re looking for something a little bit uplifting you have come to the right place.

Have a wonderful Saturday!

Love,

Keely

Soundtrack Saturday-Jon Foreman

So, not going to lie, I kind of flip-flopped a bit about posting this video.  I don’t want to be shy about what I believe but I also don’t want it to be the main content of the blog.  However, after a long (and by long I mean 14 hours on my feet) day or work and having to ditch out on church, this was the first song I ran towards.

It was wonderful, God and I had my own little moment in my car, we always do with this song.  I love that Jon Foreman sings the Lord’s Prayer at the end of the song, I think it’s so powerful.  I hope you enjoy this as much as I do!

Have a great weekend!

Love,

Keely

Soundtrack Saturday-Florence and the Machine

I found this graphic the other day

At first I couldn’t place the lyrics to a song, I could hear the melody in my head but I couldn’t figure out the band.  I ended up Googling the lyrics and finding that the lyrics are from a song called “Drumming Song” by Florence and the Machine.

I thought I would share.  Enjoy and have a wonderful Saturday!

Love,

Keely
