Nine boxes of CD's showed up at my door the day before Christmas Eve.&nbsp; I was thrilled to have them in time to give a few away for Christmas to some of my family and friends. <br /><br />I started on this recording journey (and that is what it has been) in January, recording at a<a href="http://www.kadingerevent.com/"> home studio</a> in Western WI.&nbsp; The process entailed much more than I thought and stretched me musically and spritually.<br /><br /><br />I was able to have the help of some other great musicians that added much more to the life of the songs, than I could do with just my voice and piano.&nbsp; I am pleased with the mix and am so thankful for the help of some talented people!<br /><br />The songs are more than music of course they are a words, stories, and poems.&nbsp; The songs represent my thoughts as I've walked through life's various trials and joys the last 12 years.&nbsp; Each song has a story and I hope to highlight some of them here on the blog.<br /><br />It is my hope and prayer that those who listen to my music will be blessed, encouraged and given a larger picture of God.<br /><br />With love,<br /><br />Jenny<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2306529712251891794-2628620298103238923?l=scrapbookofaclosetpoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jennyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07388690201366004562noreply@blogger.com0
