Hey!

It's my last day in beautiful Kona, Hawaii. I've been here for the last few days with my band and crew and their families. They've all worked so hard for the past two years without a real break.. So I took everybody to Hawaii. It's been the most AMAZING week and we all needed it. It's so crazy to remember what it is to relax and not have plans. To wake up and think "What am I doing today?.... Oh yeah.. NOTHING." haha. It's been incredible. But I'm ready to be back on the road. I miss arenas and crowds really bad, so I'm looking forward to being back out with Rascal Flatts. SO-- I got the incredible news today that Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman had a baby girl! Even just thinking about it now, I'm tearing up because I'm so happy for them. When my mom and I got the news, we just sat there in the hotel room and got so emotional. They're such incredible people. They've always been so wonderful to people. Nicole Kidman came to Nashville and treated everyone with grace and respect, and has always been so humble. I'm overjoyed for them. Also, I wanted to let you know about this limited edition release that's coming out at Wal Mart called Beautiful Eyes. This is NOT my new album that I've been working on all year. It's a two disc set, one CD and one DVD. The CD has two previously unreleased songs, Beautiful Eyes and I Heart ? ( I wrote those songs when I was 13) as well as alternate versions of Should've Said No, and an acoustic version of Teardrops On My Guitar. The DVD has of all of my videos, the ACM Performance of Should've Said No (in the rain!) and a video created for Beautiful Eyes with footage from my 18th Birthday Party. I'm only letting my record company make a small amount of these - the last thing I want any of you to think is that we are putting out too many releases. I'm not going to be doing a bunch of promotion for it, because I don't want there to be confusion about whether it's the second album or not. I've gotten so many emails from people asking for new songs, and I thought this might tie them over till the new album comes out in the fall. OK-- The Teen Choice Awards are getting closer and closer, and I'm so thankful that you guys got me that nomination for Breakout Artist. Thank you! I'd love it so much if you would go to the Teen Choice website and vote for the awards! Fan voted awards are the most important to me, and you guys have won some amazing awards for me in the past. I'd love it so much if you'd go rock the vote again. :-) :-) I'm about to pack and get on a plane and be home! Then back on the road (yesssss) and seeing your beautiful faces. See you soon!

Looking forward to Beautiful Eyes *and* the real new album :-)

Taytor Tottttttttttt.<3
I am SO glad your having a blast in Hawaii. You and the band deserve it more than anyone,and I'm glad you all just packed up and flew to Hawaii for a few days just to relax
and get away.

I am SO excited to get the new CD on July 15th. I've been waiting for it,and I can't wait to see the special DVD footage that comes along with it. I lovelovelove "Beautiful Eyes",and I'm excited that I can finally have it on CD. When your 2nd CD comes out this FALL,your CD sells are going to sky rocket. I'm going to buy like 5+ CD's myself,so be prepared.

I've been voting for you like CRAZY for "BreakOut Artist",and BTW,you've got this in the bag. You have the best fans in the world,and we've got this for you,Trust me!

I love you,and I hope to see you again really soon.

Taylor I'm glad you had an awesome time in Hawaii : ]

You guys deserve it the most out of anyone. I'm missing you so bad. I have to get back out to a show. It's only been since May, but I'm already missing you like crazy. I've been voting like crazy for the Teen Choice Awards. You deserve every nomination you get and so much more. I love you. <3 I miss your songs, your laugh, your hair, your boots, your amazing ways, and most of all...

you.

oh, also does anyone know if they are selling tickets to the CMT crossroads?

taylor, your beautiful and i love you. your awesome!

Hey Taylor, I'm so glad you had such a relaxing vacation but, also thrilled you're coming home. I can not wait to see you in concert. I'm coming to 2 shows in 1 week! I'll definitely vote for you for the teen choice awards! One question for you..... Why in the world would you think that we would think that you put out too many releases??? LOL We all love you and your amazing music! We also love every CD you put out. Us Tay fans are always talking to each other about you saying how much we love you! Always remember that! :-) Can't wait for your CD. It comes out on my birthday and it will definitely be the best birthday present I get this year. YAY! I'm also extremely excited for your CD in the fall. Keep rocking! I love you! Lori

What about "Change" are you singing it in Beijing for the closing Olympic ceremonies ??
