Endings & Beginnings

So much has happened in just one short month. I'm always amazed at how much God can cram into just a few short weeks. Well in the past 6 weeks once again a lot has happened; both good and sad. Let's start with the sad: there was the passing of my aunt (my dad's sister), the leaving of CIU not knowing when I will return or see my dear friends again and the closing of one of the best seasons of my life.

Now for the good exciting! My grandfather (my mom's dad) turned ... well he had another birthday with which we threw a suprise party for!

He shared it with my cousin Heather (in the blue)

On of my favorite pictures from the evening. (they were telling embarrassing stories on each other)

My big sister, Carolyn graduated with her masters in speech language pathology!



Roomies!

Our (adopted) family from Texas!



I graduated with my bachelors in Youth Ministry and Associates in Bible!

She is just a surprised as I am! (haha)
My wonderful roomie, who I will miss dearly



My girls wrote all over my car! and I LOVED IT


Our new favorite candy coconut m&ms!

And lastly the start of new jobs! Carolyn is in Charleston for the summer and I am on my way to Snowbird today!

As much as my family and I have morn over and miss we have just as much if not more to celebrate and praise God for.

Psalm 146:1-2: "Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord O my soul. I will praise the Lord all of my life; I will sing praises to my God as long as I live." And may this be our prayer as long as we have breath. Amen.
