yay

Well, there has been a lot going on so I really haven't had time to think about updating my blog. I just started back to school 2 weeks ago and we are definitely already in FULL swing! I am excited to say that I am graduating in the spring! My sister is graduating Troy with me. My little brother is graduating high school. AND my mama is graduating from Auburn's Dr program! So, we're all sporting the caps and gowns this spring. We're very excited. More later!

Monday, monday...

Well, today I'm thankful for alarm clocks and pretty, easy dresses that make it look like you put some effort into your appearance (when really, you just threw it on). Happy monday everyone!

Going to the chapel...

Well, the day is almost here. My best friend Emma is getting married tomorrow! I can't believe it... And I am so excited for her! I am so glad I get to be a part of her special day. I know it will bring back memories of mine and Justin's wedding day almost 2 years ago. So, congratulations EMMA and JESSE! I wish you two all the happiness in the world.

Just words...

Needless to say, I have not been on here in forever. Over a year to be exact. I just recently got interested in blogging again and decided I would try it...again. So, here we go...

I just have to say how excited I am that it is almost SPRING! I am not a cold weather person at all and I am glad it's finally starting to look like south Alabama weather again. And sring brings in my favorite holiday: Easter. I love the colors of Easter, the fellowship, the family, and of course, the story. Nothing makes Jesus more real to me than reading through the story of His crucifixion and resurrection and just thinking about it. Looking at it through the perspective that He did it all for me... wow. Easter is on Justins birthday this year...so he gets to be special. :) He will be 27!

I am on Spring Break right now. It's my first (almost) completely free spring break since the 8th grade. I finally get one where there are no softball practices and no set working schedules!! Woohoo! I've really enjoyed it, even though I've done more reading for school this week than I do when I'm IN school. :) So I'll be the only nerd ahead of the class when school starts next week.

On a more serious note, there's been some sad days in Troy this week. On Monday, Brittany Shepard Pugh and her baby boy, Shep, were killed in a car accident. I didn't know either of them, but I know Brittany's husband and Shep's father, Clint. It just breaks my heart to think of what he is going through right now. All we can do is continue praying for Clint and all who were close to Brittany and Shep. Life is so short. - Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Matthew 5:4
