Wow, I am blessed.

Here we are celebrating Anna and Jess' Birthdays. We did that thing where you set it to self-timer and then have to run into the picture from another room. It is fun and funny! Out of 15 shots, here's the only good one:) I thought about including the one where I am in mid-air like a flying squirrel......but then I thought about the atrocious blows my reputation has already taken......

Then, we had the Athens Christmas party. It's pretty cool because our church in Bluffton could NEVER do a Christmas party with the entire church. Here in Athens, it's a perfect amount:)

Here are the "WOMEN OF THE KITCHEN":

 

So.....apparently Whitney really wanted that scarf, but Sarah got it in the exchange.....don't worry Sarah: I am CPR certified in case of emergencies (which includes psychotic females on rampages)!

 

 

 

Merry CHRISTmas everyone:)

Who-hoooo!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESS! :) We went bowling for her birthday: it was awesomely fun!

 

We also went to a winter/christmas parade....IT WAS FRIGID but fun too!

 

(Danny stayed with me all week in AL: it was sweet!)

 

Then, I went home to Indiana to make some crazy candy with the Pfister fam...which.....of course, was fun:)

 

 

(Grandma was very intent on dipping those cherries in chocolate)

....and to top things off, when I headed back to AL, God gave me a little gift:

SNOW!!!!!!! (which just doesn't happen in AL)

God is just so good.

Turkey Time

Wow! What a great Thanksgiving. If you ever want to be more thankful for what you have, walk away from it for awhile: then, you'll realize how thankful you really should be for all things (Ephesians 5:20). I had/have an entirely new appreciation for family, friends, and life in general since I moved. It's been awesome. Here are some pictures of me reunited with them:)

Asher is SOOOO cute

 

Danny missed me.....but I guess not that much!

BANG! (the game we are playing.....at which I lost miserably)

 

Elly is a genius.

 

(Me and Daniello took quite the road trip! He is staying with me in Athens for a week. We made a pitstop at Wendy's, of course:)
