I’m officaially a Masters student!
I’m sitting in my first Grad school class in Columbia. I have to come to this campus just 3 times this semester since they are online classes. But today is my kickoff day, and I’m slightly nervous :/ But it know it will be good.

New Computer!!
So i’m excited!! I got a new computer! It’s a Dell Mini! I’m really excited bc it will be much better to use for school than my old laptop that is basically a desktop bc it automatically dies if it unplug it. :( it’s still a great computer but i can’t really use it for laptop purposes as well. I’m really happy about my new computer and i’m typing on this now!

Off to St. Louis we went...
St. Louis, Missouri.
We visited my Uncle and Aunt from Tuesday night to Sunday Morning.
On Wednesday we went to the Arch and road the little cart up into it!
That night we went to the longest baseball game ever!
Hotdog, baseball, and loved ones....couldn't be better!
Thursday we went to Meramac Caverns...a hideout of the outlaw Jesse James.
It was really cool.
Friday we went to a place in downtown call City Museum. It was so unique and fun, and it's really hard to explain. It was a place where children and adults could walk, crawl, climb, etc all around different stairs, caves, slides, and other random structures inside and outside.
Saturday was filled with playing croquet, playing frisbee golf, going to the mall, taking the convertible across the rivers and around some pretty sites.
Basically, it was an all around great week!!

Camp!
OK, wow, it's been forever since i have been on here!
Camp Marietta has been consuming my summer mainly.
Spending time with campers for the cause of Christ is so rewarding. Each week of my 5 weeks w/ campers so far has been great. Each group whether age 7 or 16, i have loved them all. Some campers are harder than others to let go because you are scared and sad for them to go back to their tough homes. It's comforting to remember that the Lord is sovereign and loves them more than I could ever imagine to love anyone.
1st week
2nd week
Erin...precious camper that is now
my sister-in-Christ after that week!!
Praise God!
3rd week!

The New Year rang in....
Wow! 2009.
It has come in a flash.
Leaving the country really threw off the whole Christmas season and end of the year for me. The semester started and ended and began the new year before I knew it.
So much has happened in the year that I cannot even begin to write about it all. The year of 2008 has been full of ups and downs, and fortunately I believe majority of it has been ups :)
I have enjoyed time with family and friends. I was able to serve the Lord all summer at a summer camp being a counselor. I was able to have fun goofing of with kids and playing games with them but also helping lead them in their spiritual life and even having the amazing privilege to lead a few to the Lord. I then had the awesome opportunity to try to serve my tennis team girls as chaplain this past semester. I have been able to grow closer to the Lord, closer to some friends, and make some new ones! People are so very important to me; life would be so much less enjoyable without all the lovely people in my life! Then Jeffrey Howard came into my life, and that was a wonderful, unexpected addition to my year! Just a couple weeks ago I was able to again have an amazing opportunity to serve the Lord over in Africa. I felt called to be a part of reaching the Nations....a nation that was not my own....somewhere out of my comfort zone where I could be stretched....somewhere when God moved I could not give myself credit because I was so inadequate to have done something like that. On that trip I was able to meet so many amazing Africans and hopefully encourage many of the Christians there. One of the many blessings of the trip was being able to baptize a 15 yr old boy that is HIV+.....knowing I was a part of symbolizing that sickness, sin, death, disease.....nothing was going to be separating this adolescent from eternity with our Lord where he would feel no more pain, have no more sorrow from dead parents, and wouldn't have to be constrained to a damaged body one day!
Our God is amazing, and I thank Him for stirring up my heart and head when I begin to neglect Him. He is the most important thing in my life, and I need to show it.
I hope 2009 is full of me growing closer to my Savior and having him be the center of my school, my activities, my thoughts, my motivations, and my relationships!
