wrapping up

 It is hard to believe my college life is ending in 5 days. Not too bad, it only took me 4.5 years finish. So much has changed. As a freshman thought I had it all figured out until Jesus led me on a different journey. And  I am so glad He did.

    Here I am at Camp War Eagle...talk about a sunburn! and was I really wearing a juicy terry dress?

I also sort of went through a stage where I never, NO not once took a normal photograph...

I went to a lot of shows where "these" type people hung out...ha!

I hung out with this girl all the time...she will probably be a famous architect one of these days :)

                    I dropped out of my sorority and started preaching the gospel in Mexico! (just kidding)
                    I really did withdrawl but I only preached the gospel in Mexico once..or twice...

                                I then met these wonderful people. We started praying together...we called ourelves AHOP (Auburn House of Prayer). Well to make a long story short. My college life has been great. Filled with many memories, surprises, and joys! 

The incredible thing is that my junior year just when I thought it would never, ever happen. I met Luke. He is was this charming young man  from Birmingham, Al who stole my heart. Today we have dated for 19 months and 14 days. I couldn't be more thankful! He is awesome :) and even better he really really loves Jesus!

                                                      Most recent picture at the Iron Bowl :)

It's the first time...

...in a long time i have written. I just completed a much-needed quick redesign. Hopefully this will suit for the time being.  I am currently listening to the International House of Prayer prayer room web stream (Misty is leading) What JOY! Few things bring my heart greater pleasure than late nights at the RDB library, designing my senior project, listening to songs of Heaven, with my boy Luke by side. On Dec 19, 2010, I graduate. I won't be able to do this any more :( 


On my Monday night I made Pioneer Woman's "Coffee Cake" here
I must say my baking skills are slowly improving. Much thanks to my dear Jordan Haden and Queen of the Kitchen Momma Bartlett.


So, if you are in town this weekend or have nothing to do and would like to travel to the Plains of Auburn, Al! Worship leaders Jake Ferrell and Matt Gilman are coming to minister for a weekend of worship and prayer! Details: Friday and Saturday @ 7:00 pm. Don/t worry. It is free! Tell your friends! Tell everyone!

say YES to sunscreen

I still dont feel like I live an interesting live enough to have a blog. But then I ask the question. "Do any of us?" Maybe it is only cool to post some neat information on cyber space as if we didn't already have enough iphone and internet applications to keep us entertain.


I laid out today and never had I thought I would return from the pool with my whole body as red as a tomato. My poor body has not been in the sun all winter. You can imagine. Sunscreen would have been a good idea. My granddad had horrible skin cancer. I remember there was a big spot on his forehead where he had skin grafted. Needless to say, I will not go outside in the sun without sunscreen again.

Still pondering and praying. What should I do this summer?
Go out west with Campus Crusade?
Go to Colorado with theWall Prayer Room?
or Go to International House of Prayer-KC?

almost done

After tomorrow I will be done with my 3rd to last semester of college. Tomorrow at 12 p.m. I will turn in my most recent portfolio web site as a final project in my Interactive Media class. It has been challenging but I have learned a lot. Click on the link to give it a look.

The semester has been wonderful. I became an aunt, worked, played, loved, learned, and enjoyed every minute. Our biggest rival, Alabama won the SEC championship yesterday as they played the Florida Gators. Nevertheless Auburn still had a great season.

Christmas is almost here, got to go make a wish list!

jana came in town today, her presence brings a smile from ear to ear

we ate lunch at amsterdam with her old roomie in KC, ran into an old boyfriend who was waitressing there. i love awkwardly funny moments.
we walked campus, hit the pool, and then ate dinner with old and new family friends

after many conversations about boyfriends and the end times we are off to sleep!

post number one

i don't seem to think i live a cool enough life to have my own blog
my days seem to only be filled with the mundane routines of life. day in day out. day in day out.
i wake up, pray, read, workout, go to school, work occasionally, hope for dreams, encounters, and the suddenlies of God in my life
...but here goes nothing
