Blissful

It is SNOWING!

 God is SO good.

I marvel everyday at how awesome this place is that he created for US. I am reminded of it extra on days like today when Snow- something so foreign to Texas gets to grace our sky! Beautiful.

The Dream is a Reality!

In honor of being featured on Today's Letters (fist pump Friday!) I have decided to post in their fashion.

Dear Mrs. Loerke, thank you so mcuh for choosing the sibs and I to be featured this week, talk about a dream come true! Dear Nose, although I always get a good laugh when I have to run around the house with a tissue shoved up my nostril... I think 3 nosebleeds in one day are a bit excessive. Maybe today we can set a goal of none. Dear Sister, I love you like you like more than those lady's love coupons on Extreme Couponing, boys are stinky, and you’ll meet a better one in no time, I PROMISE! Dear Lord, thank you for the many blessings that 2011 has already brought me. Dear Lovies, Who Read My Bloggy, please go vote for Today's Letters as THE best new blog!

And if you don't know what on earth I am talkin about! Here they are! They rock my socks off!

52

Hello lovies!

 

I am so sorry it has been since BEFORE Christmas that I posted!

 

I hope everyone had a BLESSED, beautiful, and happy Christmas. I know I did. I always forget how much family I have until it is the holidays. It seems that at Christmas, Easter and Thanksgiving I am reminded of what a large and in charge family I come from. We are loud, awkward, funny, and most of all loving. I couldn't ask for anything more than that!

This break I have been to the following places: Dallas, Ft. Worth, Southlake, Oklahoma City, Kansas City (KS & MO), Overland Park, VAN!, Marshall, Shreveport, Tyler, Kilgore, Crockett, College Station, Huntsville, and FINALLY BACK TO SOUTHLAKE!

I'd have to say I'm a very well-traveled Texan, as well as a nice little dose of the mid-west!

But what was my favorite?

 

52.

Van, Texas.

SKY RANCH BABY!

For those who don't already know- I will be a Summer Camp Counselor at Sky Ranch this coming summer! Having this position has already been a huge blessing in my life, more than I could have ever imagined.

I have met phenomenal Christian college students who I am beyond to call my Brothers and Sisters in Christ. It is so awesome to be reminded that I am not the only college student choosing to live my life for Christ.

But anyways, back to why I found myself in little precious Van, TX this past weekend, 52. 52 is a conference held at Sky every year starting on New Years Day! What an incredible way to start off a new year! We talked about building bridges, we talked about what it means to be men and women of Christ, it was such a wonderful experience and I truly appreciate the fact that I was one of the lucky people who got to experience it! Not to mention we got to experience a very small dose of what this summer will entail. I am absolutely ecstatic to see how the Lord works in my life this coming year; I know it will be FULL of changes, and new experiences.

My constant Prayer is that I learn from everything, that this year will continue to shape me, to mold me, and to call me to do greater things.

My resolution for 2011 is to do everything well. Nothing in my life can be perfect all the time, I can't control every situation, or any task handed to me. But, I can choose how I react, and how I complete everything handed my way! And I choose to do it well!

Oh and how did I ring in the New Year? With a few precious friends and the biggest Big Gulp Slurpee we could find.

Have a blessed day y'all!

You're Here

Hello sweet little Bloggy readers.

I pray each and everyone of you is having a blessed and merry Christmas season.

I was driving home from school and stuck in the worst traffic of my life (accident on I-35, sad)

But as I was sitting there with a numb tushy and an unfortunate rumbling tummy this song came on the radio. I wanted to share it with everyone because it is so wonderful!

I will legit blog later tonight!

Until then, enjoy!

Beautiful

I have been cleaning all morning and listening to this song on repeat.

So beautiful.

The Day is FINALLY Here

Praise God

Finals are

finished!

I am SO thankful that this hour has finally arrived!

However, my last test... whew that was a bad time for me.

I sat down to take my test, and no sooner than when my test was handed to me did I start to feel ill. No, not the kind of ill that you feel just because you're taking a test... No, I mean ill, like get me out of here I'm about to vomit all over this test!

I pushed through though! I had to push through! I had 100 multiple choice questions and 25 short answers (thank the good Lord they didn't have to be complete sentences).

I got through all the m.c's and then came the short answers... this is when things got really bad. My handwriting was about this big on my paper, and was the sloppiest I think I've ever turned in, but by golly I got through it! I ran up to the front put my test on the pile and literally ran out of my class, left behind all my stuff and got to the bathroom, and yuk. I don't have a clue where it came from! It was HORRIBLE! I felt awful too, there were other girls in the bathroom with me, poor things. BUT I digress; since I feel 84021x's better already I can laugh about it and sum it up to I guess that's just how I felt about this semester.

I wish everyone the best of luck on their last couple of finals, and I HOPE no one else has to endure the discomfort of vomit on test day!

Love to all.

Prayer Request

While I have you here:

Please pray for my sweet friend Amy Urban,
