Top Country Tweets of the Week – May 13th

Posted by Country Girl on May 13th, 2012

Edens Edge on WhoSay
15. Watch out for a takeover from @EdensEdge this summer.  They are Too Good To Be True! “We’re having a blast at our video shoot today for Too Good To Be True!!!! Can’t wait for you to see it! DB”

14. In lieu of a little reality show drama, newcomer @ChaseRiceMusic made this statement that I find quite fitting “All this hatin goin on between country artists right now. Y’all…chilllll, smile, and have a drink.”

13. Hey @BrettEldredge I think my mom could give your mom some competition “Todays the day where everyone tells you why their mom is better than your mom…well my mom is better than your mom! The best!”

Little Big Town

12. @LBTmusic spent a little time on a boat last week.  I think Karen forgot her water shoes though “Now here is Karen’s shoes #pontoon”

11. Couldn’t have said this better myself @LauraBellBundy “Bob Marley said ‘complaining is prayers to the devil.’ Today I’m taking account of all the things I HAVE…not the things that I don’t have.”

10. Sometimes we all need to take a step back and appreciate what we have as @JRodFromOz pointed out this week “News just said several soldiers returned home to TN today from overseas. Welcome home & thank for your unbelievable service!!! #hugefan”

9. Following the theme from the last two tweets, here is a little motivation from @BillyCurrington “life is like a tree. love are the leaves. sometimes u cant c the beauty til theyve fallen. look a little deeper into the forest today ! amen”

Miranda Lambert

8. This week Blake Shelton was victorious on The Voice.  @Miranda_Lambert showed her joy in this tweet “Ahhhhhhhhhh!!! Team Blake did it!!!!!”

7. Maybe a few CDs from now @KipMooreMusic will be able to fly private “3 types of babies on planes: A. Cute and calm B. investigative C. Pissed ….just said goodbye to C”

6. The Blue Angels had @KelliePickler flying in style this week. Maybe Kip Moore should get their number “Early flight…can’t wait to get home. After flying with the Blue Angels, flying commercial is definitely a downgrade…ha ha.”

Sugarland

5. I think the techie in @KristianBush is taking over – foreign invasion? “So I must have reset my login while in Paris and @iTunesMusic thinks I live there. The romantic in me won’t change it.”

4. @MartinaMcBride could write the story of my life based on this tweet “Couldn’t sleep last night. Too much music in my head…”

3. After a little time in cuffs, @JakeOwen had one of the best days of his life – his wedding “A best friend for life. I now have a wifey :) my face hurts from smiling. What a wonderful way to start the rest of my life.”

2. @BlakeShelton has a found the only weight loss plan that is guaranteed to get you to the end – don’t try “In order to keep the focus on my music and NOT my image I’ve decided against losing weight…”

Carrie Underwood

1. It looks like @CarrieUnderwood buying her own CD on it’s release day was lucky.  She ended up at Number One on the Billboard Charts. “Just bought “Blown Away!” Glad they finally have a section for us country folk! Ha ha!”

Jake Owen is a Married Man

Posted by Country Girl on May 7th, 2012

jake-owen-2-300

It is official….Jake and Lacey are finally Mr. and Mrs. Owen.

They tied the knot Monday morning in a sunrise ceremony in Jakes’s hometown of Vero Beach, Fla.

PEOPLE magazine reported that Lacey wore a Amsale gown and veil and while Jake was casual in a white linen Armani shirt and Tommy Bahama drawstring pants. Of course both had to be barefoot on the beach as the sun rose over the ocean.

Jake told PEOPLE that it was his idea to have a sunrise wedding because….”it’s symbolic of the dawn of a new day and starting our new life together”. Awwwe!

Jake popped the big question to Lacey on stage at his alma mater, Vero Beach High, his past April during his song “Don’t Think I Can’t Love You”.
The beautiful ceremony was a family-only affair. Jake’s twin brother Jarrod served as best man while Lacey’s sister Leah was her maid of honor.

After the couple exchanged vows and their first kiss, the party walked to the patio of the Vero Beach Hotel and Spa for champagne, cake cutting and a sit-down brunch.

“I’m looking forward to being a husband, someone his wife relies and leans on,” said Jake, who will hit the road for the Brothers of the Sun tour on June 2nd.

Lacey added… “He gives me so much love, that it’s the best place of my life, and having the commitment of marriage means everything.”
