Carrie Underwood Performs “America The Beautiful” at the Presidential Inaugration FLAWLESSLY.

In case you’re under a rock or something of the like, you’re aware that today is President Donald Trump’s inaguration.

Look, I’m I’m not here to get into politics. I’m not right or left. I’m just an American. So, if you’re coming here to vent your frustrations, you came to the wrong place.

I love America, flaws and all, and will always do so no matter who is voted in as the leader.

I’m an Army wife, and I take pride in our country and know how good we have it, whether or not you approve of the Coomander-in-Chief.

That being said, Carrie Underwood was tapped to perform “America the Beautiful” at the ceremony, and despite technical issues and the backing track not playing, she immediately sang it A Cappella, and absolutely NAILED it.

Not that I’m surprised. Carrie Underwood is one of the most vocally talented singers out there, and is a total pro and class act.

My favorite part?

Everyone singing along.


Right, left, or in between… you have to admit that was impressive.

Carrie Underwood got so much flack for doing this, and I loved her public statement in response:

“I love our country and am honored to have been asked to sing at the Inauguration and to be a small part of this historic event. I am humbled to answer the call at a time when we must all come together in the spirit of unity and looking to the future.”

YES to all of that.

America first, America always.

Darryl Worley “Have We Forgotten”

If you’re a Country fan, you probably remember Daryl Worley’s hit song “Have You Forgotten”, which talked about how quickly many of us seemed to have moved on from the terrorist attacks of 2003.

Fast forward 20 years later, our beloved America is basically a hot mess express right now. And who is to blame? Basically all of us.  It absolutely sickens me to see what has happened to our country, and our people. We are so ridiculously divided now, and noone wants to stop and listen to the other side. We don’t need China or Russia to destroy us. We’re doing a pretty damn good job of it ourselves.  Yet, we’re too busy finger pointing and worrying about offensive beer cans to even see what we stand to lose if we don’t change.

Darryl Worley just dropped an updated version of his original hit, and it basically echoes that sentiment.

Well done, Darryl!

What we seem to forget is how lucky we are to be free.  Ever wonder why we have so many immigrants and migrants?  Because of all the freedoms and opportunities that we take for granted every day.  Is our Country perfect? Hell no.  But social change takes time, and you know what? Everyone acting a fool on BOTH sides hinders us more than anything.

Stop for a minute. Look around. Be grateful for what we have and be kind to others, even if they don’t agree with you politically.

It’s not complicated.

I myself have had people tell me I should use my “platform” to be more political, but I just personally can’t.  We have enough poison out there, and I don’t want to add to it.  Plus, I have a really hard time choosing a side. I really can’t say that I’m a Democrat or a Republican. Just somewhere in between, wondering what the hell happened to our country…

We are destroying something amazing. Something that my husband and so many other great Americans have fought and died for. Remember that this Independence Day.  Let’s all do better, OK? Our country deserves it!

‘Merica!
