Never too late to accept a shout-out, right...<b>Kara</b>,<br /><br />Never too late to accept a shout-out, right?? ;) *Hugs back*<br /><br />These tags really are a lot of fun! I love that blogging for us is more than simply cranking out reviews...it's about sharing thoughts and forming friendships along the way. ♥<br /><br />Yay for singing along to music, eating chocolate, and watching <i>You've Got Mail</i>! We totally have to plan our next Twitter-watching party. Perhaps we should do a Christmas-themed one? Although I'm eager to do a watch-along for <i>Austenland</i>, too. :)<br /><br />No worries at all about the snail mail! I don't want to ever pressure you/stress you out. I'm glad that you received the letter, though - I'll have to send you another one sometime! I haven't been writing as many letters recently... But I picked up some pretty cards at Target the other day, so I'm eager to use them. :)<br /><br />I love what you shared from that sermon! What a great way to look at it. Reminds me of the song <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/402720391652694562/" rel="nofollow">"Trains I Missed" by Balsam Range</a>. Encouraging! Thank you for sharing. :)<br /><br />~AmberAmber Holcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15100265646497152198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-10770224846943129752014-11-18T18:16:48.021-07:002014-11-18T18:16:48.021-07:00Oh my!

I feel exactly the same way about you! *hugs*<br /><br />And I'm so glad you joined in. This tag is such a fun way to get know our internet friends better. :)<br /><br />I constantly sing along to music as well. And I must say that I sound absolutely amazing in my head! Now whether I do out loud on the other hand....<br /><br />Yay for chocolate!<br /><br />Ah, You've Got Mail is the BEST! And I loved our twitter party with it. We've gotta find time to do that again sometime soon! (Also on that note, I DID get your card in the mail. THANK YOU! I realized that I hadn't really responded (bad Kara!), but I loved getting it. I am planning to actually respond with real mail soon. Just so you know! Promise. :)<br /><br />You know, I just heard this awesome sermon the other week. And the minister said "Where would you be if you could be anywhere you wanted right now? You'd be right where you are. Because you've made choices that have led you to this particular spot in this particular moment." I hadn't ever thought about it that way, but he is so right. The choices we make, letting the Spirit guide us, lead us exactly where we want to be. Whether it's a good thing or a bad thing all depends on the spirit we're listening to.<br /><br />Okay! Enough sermonizing. But I thought you might appreciate that thought. :)Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09590701834142754842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-8632522662457919192014-10-24T19:35:31.882-06:002014-10-24T19:35:31.882-06:00Meghan,

Thank you again so much for nominating me. :) *Hugs back*<br /><br />And goodness...I am SO behind on emails. *sigh* But yes, we must catch up sometime soon! I'm sorry I haven't done a better job of keeping in touch. I'm really blessed to know you've been praying for me, though - thank you, dear friend. ♥<br /><br />~AmberAmber Holcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15100265646497152198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-16924827141139060872014-10-24T19:33:35.652-06:002014-10-24T19:33:35.652-06:00Ganise,

They really touch my heart!<br /><br />And oops! I apologize for the double nomination, then, although I'm happy to give you a shout-out. :) Your responses are great!<br /><br /><i>Song</i>: OK, I'm thinking we might have listened to that song in Zumba class on Monday! SO fun. Now I know where I can find it online to listen to for those impromptu living-room dance parties. ;)<br /><br /><i>Junk food</i>: Oooh, fries is a great answer! I love fries. I even mention them in the prologue of <i>How a Star Falls</i>, haha.<br /><br /><i>Books</i>: Can't wait to read <i>Meant to Be Mine</i> - sounds so good!<br /><br />~AmberAmber Holcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15100265646497152198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-30345037105932649702014-10-23T17:41:47.362-06:002014-10-23T17:41:47.362-06:00SO glad you accepted The Tag, Amber!

Pets : If I we...Nice to read your answers, Amber! <br /><br />Pets : If I were to get one it'd be a cat as well :) Aren't they cute? <br /><br />Music : Currently listening to the song ''Sunshine On My Shoulders.'' Awww. It's sweet - in a bit of a sad way I find... But I can see why it reminds you of coming home. It definitely conveys longing. <br /><br />Nomination : Thanks, friend, for nominating me! I appreciate it - I participated in this back in August.

It's all fine and dandy when you can easily make out the words, but when the image is too faint or the letters/numbers too distorted, it's super frustrating. Like, seriously, are you testing to see if we're robots, or if we're super-human with mind-reading powers? LOL.<br /><br />Anywho, I'm so glad you enjoyed reading this, and I'm touched by your encouraging words about this type of post. :) *Hugs* And of course - you more than deserve a shout-out, friend! <br /><br />I so love this blogging community, and the chance to connect with awesome reading & writing friends. ♥ So blessed!<br /><br />~AmberAmber Holcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15100265646497152198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-86983689092604043232014-10-22T11:38:34.721-06:002014-10-22T11:38:34.721-06:00Yes to all of your Blogger pet peeves.

I get the whole need for the codes to prevent spammers, but sometimes Blogger makes them really difficult - you swear you're typing in what they show but it won't take. *sigh* It's not in any way the blogger's fault and spammers are annoying, it'd just be nice if Blogger had a more clear cut system. <br /><br />As always, your posts aren't just fun to read through, they're thoughtfully put together as well, Amber. Loved reading this and thanks for the shout-out - I feel the same about you and Kara! You two are fantabulous and wonderful, kindhearted people. :)<br /><br />...and I love your question of it being acceptable to say "all of them." That's how I feel too.:)Rissihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11378400717440822186noreply@blogger.com
