I'm 24... boo!

I remember sitting in Kindergarten with Mrs. Courty thinking there is no way I will ever make it to Junior High. I can also recall sitting in class as a freshman in High School thinking there is no way I will ever make it to college. Now I sit in my office chair at work wondering how I made it two years out of collage and celebrated my 24th birthday. Wow... even as I write that it feels old... geriatric really. I do believe it was my best birthday in recent memory. The top two that I can recall at this time are freshman year of college at TU when Mandii talked me into coming out to the Taylor lake to find many of my friends hidden in the woods to wish me a warm Happy Birthday. I was shocked... I was happy. Last night has risen to that status as well. My two best friends Rachel Olshine and Nick Cunnigham put together a little get together at Tsunamis (a killer Sushi place downtown). There were about 14 of us and they included... Meghan and Josh Sanders, Nick Cunningham, Rachel Olshine, Andrew Stewart, Callie Alexander, Jena Timcke, Sharon Ayelstock, Katie McClure, Heath Chambers, Saricatherine "Hair", Mary Thompson, Emily MILNER, and how could I forget my best buddy Patrick Boatwright who bought me SUSHI and ME. We ate our weight in Sushi and loved ever minute of it.

It was a great day. I was able to go on an adventure with Rachel to look at a house on Lake Murray in Chapin, SC for the rents. WE took pictures and much fun was had. I also had a cool small group with my 7th grade boys. I am so excited to see the way God has moved in their lives. They prayed last night after we played football in the yard and they were the most awesome prayers. I love those guys.

PEACE,
ME
