Its Christmas Eve and I'm right at home in Marietta, GA. Life has been a bit of a whirlwind since I've been here. Its really hard to get around and see all the people who want to be seen in your hometown and fell like you're resting at the same time, but I love my old friends and I suddenly have this new desire to keep in touch with them. It's probably a little premature to write an end of the year blog but I'm going for it. 2007 has been a dang good year! Even my family is making leaps and strides. Tonight I cooked dinner, my mom made dessert and we played Scrabble. It was fun! I think that's my prayer for our family this year, that we'd learn to have fun together and enjoy eachother's company. I think that until we learn to enjoy one another no one else is really going to want to be a part of our family. Don't get me wrong, we don't hate eachother. We can talk and be friendly we're just not really friends. My brother couldn't come home for Christmas again this year because he has to work :(, so its just the four of us Mom, Dad, my sister, and me. We've had a good time so far and I'm praying it'll continue into tommorrow. Anyways...back to the year in review. My word for this year was Discipline and the Lord really did it. From teaching me how to eat healthy to showing me over and over again that I can never be Jesus to people, its been hard and good. Last year at this time Mandii Rowland was talking to me about getting engaged. This Christmas Mandii Erwin told me that she's having a baby!!!! Amazing! Here are my New Year's resolutions:
1.Make a decision about staying on or leaving staff
2.Memorize a passage of scripture
3.Date someone (or at least go out on a date)

That's all I've got right now.
