Hey everyone!!

The summer PJ parties with a purpose were great! We were so overwhelmed and thankful for all God did in our hearts for His justice - making the wrong things right in the earth! We met our goal at collecting items for rescued girls from human trafficking as well as creating more of an awareness in our communities. Thank you Jessica Seigler for sharing your heart and challenging us to love big! For more information about human trafficking, please visit http://www.thea21campaign.org/

On the CD release night, the YesIAm team will be collecting neck scarves for battered women & teen girls. This is a very small way to make a very BIG difference in the lives of His precious daughters. Let's give some love & hope all wrapped up in a colorful scarf!! Thank you!

Thanks for all the support and love -- really grateful for all the Lord has done, is doing, and will do!

Carrie & the YesIAm team

I See Color.....

Hey Everyone,


Can you believe October is only 3 short months away and it also holds the release of my album "Color"??!!! Whoohoo!!


Be sure to mark your calendars for Friday, Oct. 7th at 7pm at the Monroe Church of God Student Center. Tickets go on sale the beginning of August for $5. You can purchase your ticket at the church office, welcome desk or send an email to yesiamus@gmail.com for more info on ticket reservations. The "YesIAm" team will be collecting scarves for battered women and teen girls....sharing a little color & love with these precious daugthers is how you can make a difference on that beautiful fall night!





For those of you who may be a bit curious about the album Color::: the album is a compilation of songs from my heart...simply put. I would like to think of it as a journey through the broken places of the heart to the restoration of love, hope & committment. So DON'T hide your kids, or your wives or your husbands because on this night we will celebrate God's gift of love to us. We can love because He FIRST LOVED.




Please pray as we continue to work at the studio and prepare for the release night! My prayer is that these songs will ignite a fearless, God-love in your heart for the people He has given to you to cherish.

"I see color, color

a multitude of red

I see rainbows, rainbows

above my head

I see YOU"

Little Randoms

I have to admit that I wear scarves all year-round and my sweet sister lets me have it with a daily dose of kind, sarcastic remarks; especially in the hotness of July & August! Don't you just love having a big sister? I do : ) Anyway, thankfully the season change means less remarks from her about my neck attire and more compliments on my latest, cheap finds from Bealls Outlet (the best store in the world...it's a glorified yard sale but I LOVE it...especially on Fridays cause it's discount day!) Watch out Kelli cause I'm coming at you with a new fall line of whatever is on sale baby! Ha!

It's been a long while since the last time I blogged and now that October is here, I felt it would be very appropriate to welcome the new season with a few random thoughts. So, WELCOME OCTOBER! YOU ARE LOVELY!

Yesterday I opened the door and I felt the wind kiss my face as I watched a colorful pile of leaves swirl up to the sky. It was one of those moments, ya know? I enjoy those little pauses in life where the Lord reminds us that He is in control...no matter what the season or circumstance looks or feels like, HE knows and sometimes that's all I need to know. Simple.

So, enjoy this month...buy a new scarf at Bealls and a warm caramel apple cider from where-ever, sit outside and drink in the new season & the fact that Jesus cares.

Here's where I'll be singing this month...

Here are some pictures from a recent, fun event I played at for "The Shops at Breedlove". Wanna give a shout out to Hal Breedlove for being one of my first sponsors that helped fund the Nightlight CD. Also, a big shout out to my precious parents! They are GOLD to me and I'm so thankful and grateful for their love and support. BTW, it was my daddy's idea to sport the "YesIAm" shirts!! LOVE YOU Daddy & Mama!!
