The most wonderful time of the year...

I am so blessed! I really think that I have the best family ever! I have only been here with them for a day, and already I have seen God's faithfulness and realized how wonderful my family is.
I left for AZ yesterday morning (12/17) and ended up having a layover that overlapped my sister's, so I was able to have breakfast with her. Then I ended up missing my flight because I read my ticket wrong... But they bumped me to the same flight as Jade! Then the flight attendant worked things out so that we could even sit together on the plane! :) God was really working out the details of my trip :) it was so awesome!
And this morning we had a surprise birthday party for my grandpa... He was so surprised, totally blessed, and was crying happy tears the whole time, which started everyone crying :) it was so fantastic :)
And I get to hang out with all of these awesome aunts and uncles and cousins and baby cousins, and siblings and mom and dad and grandparents for the next week! I love all of these people... Really, they remind me of God's goodness and his provision, that he would give me such wonderful people in my life!! We have had so much fun, already! :)
Thank you Lord for my family!
Hope all of you are blessed and able to appreciate your family during this holiday season!
Love!

chopsticks

Hey All! :)


Today is fantastic! I hope that today you are seeing God's faithfulness and experiencing His love! :)
I know I am... :) 


Especially with this new ministry opportunity: I get to go to Korea in January!! :)
We will be going to Korea as a department to teach an SST to the students there, and I am so excited! And encouraged! I haven't gotten my newsletters out yet, and God is already providing for my financial needs for the trip! 


So today, I thought I would start preparing myself... 



I gotta eat... right? ;)

So I ate my entire lunch today with chopsticks. :) 

And!! I'm really excited that it's almost Christmas!! :) I get to go home soon, which is so fantastic! I really miss my family!
So... I was feeling the Christmas spirit today. And decided that I would take my friend Meganne's advice and stir my coffee with a candy cane. 
Best. Advice. Ever.
So. Delicious.

I even found a green mug! :)

So that's what's on my mind today:
-God's faithfulness
-Christmas!!
-Preparing for Korea

What's on your mind today? Let me know how I can pray for you!

Love!
