BREAKING THE SILENCE

Today was Invisible Children's Breaking the Silence.
I pledged to do it.  Well, I admit that I talked for a few minutes, but it was a super serious topic that needed to be talked about.
Otherwise, I went silent from 6 last night until 8 tonight.  So I went a little longer than 25 hours so I think it counts.
It was soooo hard not to call my mom when I needed to talk to her about Hanson being on DWTS. ha!!
Anyway, I raised 80 bucks.  Nothing compared to the dude who has raised $12,000 but shit, I did my part!
Thanks to:
Jill E.
DeAnne H.
Missy G.
My mommy
and
Miss LJ!
for donating.  I love you all very much.  These ladies know how involved I am with the Congo and are willing to fork out money to support whatever I am doing when it comes to causes like this.


In Nashville, Tennessee they are breaking the silence.  It was so touching to watch thousands and thousands of people break the silence at the same time.

 So far a very awesome lady from Uganda came out and spoke.  She was so sweet and I loved hearing her story.

Now its music time!!
Landon Pigg!!!!!!!!!!  He is so sweet and amazingly talented.
and unfortunately David Archuletta (i think he has gotten worse since Idol.  at the moment, he is trying to sing Daniel Bedingfield's (?)  Gotta Get Through This. HORRIBLE cover.)

Mumford and Sons are in Austin, Texas.  I wish they were live streaming them instead of David.  Oh well.

In case you were wondering.  The initial goal was to raise $650,000
as of right now they have more than 1.6 MILLION bucks.
A-freaking-Mazing.
