First week of 2011

Well it was a busy week...All State Music Festival. I worked 21.5 hours in three days...one day was 11 hours at once. Always a fun week but busy. Plus, Chaos started again and Fuel Groups kick off this weekend as well. One more week off from school but with any luck I will sub two or three days and I will start back to student teaching on Thursday. It's amazing how slow and yet so fast five weeks can go by.

Today I had three of my five elementary education school buddies over for tea. It was quite fun. We must hang out more outside of school. Next time maybe everyone will be able to come.

Todd delivered a great sermon tonight. Made me think about quite a few things and how I would like to proceed in this new year. I hope to make a difference for God's kingdom in a radical way throughout 2011. Maybe I can go on another mission trip, maybe I can serve more, maybe I can give more of my stuff to those who are in need, maybe I can feed a meal at one of the shelters on a regular basis...so many ways to do for others when I have so much. After church, it was off to the Bloom house for Bible Study social dinner. After dinner a few members of the group left and Mike and I spent hours playing silly card games with the Bloom's. It was quite entertaining...we played...Shang Hi, Spoons, ERS, 21, High Low, and other games for a good five hours. Lots of laughter and silly comments made for a fun evening. I am really liking this game night idea...let's keep it up all!

Well my brain continues to think of many things that will come in the following months. I am excited to see the births of many babies to friends of mine, I am excited to graduate from UNM in December, I am super excited to still be writing with my pen pal student from my diversity class, and I look forward to the possibilities of having two more semesters with 4.0 GPAs. I am excited to see how God will use me this year for His glory.

May God bless you and your family as this year gets started and may you find a way to help others who are less fortunate than you in a way that God will greatly reward you for. God is good all the time.
