Is anyone else having a hard time grasping that the end of the year is here? It seems like just yesterday, we were gathered in Jessica and Davin's living room...praying for God's blessing and guidance in 2012. Wow...time really flies!
May: Said sad goodbyes to everyone in Tupelo. After working with the New Beginnings team for 2.5 years, we were more like family! May also included packing up my cute little apartment and selling most of my earthly belongings.
August: My traveling buddy, Paula, came to spend 2 months with me...I'm so thankful she was able to come!
November: survived a major earthquake. I was also able to make a quick trip home to renew my visa, hug my family, eat my favorite foods, shop in American stores, and worship at my home church.
December: my entire immediate family came to see me for Christmas! So much fun!
As you can see, 2012 was a year of changes...a year of fellowship (with both family and friends)...a year of blessing. God's blessings never cease to amaze me. I've been stretched and pulled in ways I couldn't imagine this time last year...His grace and goodness are overwhelming!
If 2013 is anything like this past year, it's going to rock! I can't wait to see what God has planned!
Highlights from 2012
February: celebrated my 25th birthday with a girls trip to TN with Mom and Melody. February also included a fabulous vacation in Chicago with Britney Prince! We had an absolutely blast...saw all of the sites, went to the symphony, enjoyed the snow, ate more than we should have, and made so many memories!
May: Said sad goodbyes to everyone in Tupelo. After working with the New Beginnings team for 2.5 years, we were more like family! May also included packing up my cute little apartment and selling most of my earthly belongings.
June: the big move to Guatemala for 13 months of mission work. Saying goodbye to my friends and family was tough but oh so worth it!
September: first volcano eruption...crazy!
November: survived a major earthquake. I was also able to make a quick trip home to renew my visa, hug my family, eat my favorite foods, shop in American stores, and worship at my home church.
