Music: Playlists & SOD

Trent and I like music.

Music is a powerful tool.  Music is also very personal.  Together Trent & I have like a wide variety of music.  At any given time we can be found listening to everything from jazz to pop to country to classical or whatever in between!   I love the freedom I feel when I listen to music.  It is amazing how the right song can change a bad day into a good one.

We have always enjoyed making playlists for one another for different occasions throughout our courtship and marriage.  During Trent's deployment we did the same.  Our lists were full of songs of hope, love, memories, loneliness and whatever other emotion we were feeling at the time.  Besides sending one another playlists, we also began doing a SOD (song of the day).  The military loves acronyms and one day Trent had too much time on his hands and viola...a new tradition in our lives was formed.

I've been trying to think of a way to incorporate them here for us to always remember and I can't think of any creative way to do it so I'm just going to list a bunch of them.  Have fun getting to know us a little better!
