Today is a Brand new day

Today has been a very good day. it was a "snow day" we got 5 inches of snow... something we never see here in Texas. I took off work. even though the roads were probably fine to drive on, and tomorrow it wont be very good.... but it was a great day to clean house and just chill. i went out to a local park and took some pictures, also took some around the apartment.


Over all life is going amazing
I am growing so much closer to God and he has opened my eyes in different ways.
I've never been this close to him.
I feel so led to help out with the youth.... I feel like im in the right place.
Right now there are not many that come to the Wednesday night meetings (only 2) but i've accepted that.
Next week we are going to a conference that's coming... Planet Wisdom, I used to love going when I was in youth. Really awesome experience. Im so excited about going. we're having 11 people total going!!! So awesome :-)
The week after we're doing a fundraiser thing for Haiti. - We're calling it "Hunger for Haiti" - we got sponsers to sponsor the youth, and we're sending it to an organization that will give 100% to relief. - The youth are doing a lock-in.... i'm really really excited about it. it will be really great.

Job is going good. They told me yesterday that they do want to continue to keep me on.
so thats good I've started a photoblog thing, hoping eventually it will turn into a business.

I feel different. just i feel like im really growing and maturing. its very odd. but i like it.
