. . This was this past Summer - 2010. Here, my brothers and I eating some ice cream! Dip n' Dots, to be exact. Such a moment, forgetting about anything and everything and just sitting in the middle of the mall - literally, just sitting there, & eating ice cream, of course. :)

It is now Christmas time (total opposite of the summer time) and I'm blown away by the time and as it continues to move on . . it's so crazy! There are so many things to come in the new year & God's got it all planned out! :) I'm so excited to see what He has in store for those who will lead, for those to do great things in this world, and for those who will be changed and renewed! :) I know He'll be working through those whom He has chosen! :)

- - Being given the opportunity to work with the girl's this year with Lala was amazing. I know the year hasn't ended just yet, but still. :) It was very hard to try to get to know them at first because it's out of your comfort zone, you know? I see these girls every week, but just saying a simple Hi was hard enough! ;) . . but I'm thankful that the Lord broke me and guided me throughout the year to now and this very day! Just being able to create these relationships with the girls is awesome! Seeing them grow, learning about them and who they are! I thank the Lord for providing such friendships. :)
