Goodbye 2009...

Is it really possible that yet another year has come and gone??!! This year has FLOWN for me!

This year has been one that, if I were able to delete January - May from my memory forever, would be a pretty good year! Hey, at least half of the year has been good :) I started off the 1st day of January in the hospital, spent the entire month of January emotionally, physically, and mentally drained, and I had an AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL 2008-2009 school year.

BUT,

I've had a spectacular summer...

Student Life Youth Camp - We were FLIPPED!

ALOHA from the GA Lock-In!
Spending time with the 4 Favorites...

Having an awesome week at the annual Bailey Bash on the Bay

And, enjoying beautiful summer flowers!

I've had a fabulous fall...

Brad's 30th Surprise Party!

Spending time with my very best friend!

Brad being accepted and starting seminary!

LOVING my job!! Thank you, Jesus!
Having a BLAST serving and being so blessed by our church family!

The trip to the beach...what more needs to said?!

And, being so incredibly THANKFUL for our families!!

And, I've had the beginnings of a wonderful winter...

Christmas spent with those that we love the very most!



Yes, I have to say that undoubtedly the second half of 2009 has been pretty good!! Brad and I will be spending tonight celebrating by Praying in the New Year with our church family. I have some very specific things I hope to see come out of 2010, and I have already began to pray with EXPECTANCY...it's going to be a GREAT NEW YEAR!!



HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!
