Ohh the Places I will go...

I love love love to travel!! Growing up I we did not really go on many vacations..maybe to Branson some but that was about it! When I was in High School, I went on my first misson trip to Chicago...I LOVED IT! The trip was amazing..this was a time when I decided from working inner city schols that I wanted to become a teacher! Anyway! Since then been on misson trips to Houston, Gulf Shores, and Nicaragua. I went on a cruise with some amazing people for my senior trip. There we went to Belize, Roatan, Cozumel, & Cancun. This is when I really knew I loved traveling! I even got sea sick and still enjoyed the trip more than I could even put into words. When I went off to college I made sure every year to save up enough money to go on a spring break trip every year. I went on a road trip to Niagare Falls! To date, this is favorite place on earth! I LOVE waterfalls!! On this trip, we stopped by New York City and went through the Smokey Mountains! My goal currently is to see every waterfall in Arkansas! My last trip was to Nicaraga in Summer 2010. I have been on a mission trip twice to this country and fell in love, but I will right more about that later!
It has been over a year since I have been on a trip and I have TRAVEL FEVER like you would not believe! There are a few things I am wanting to do but just can not decide what yet! I would love to go to Vegas and I would love to go on another cruise...oh the decisions! Where would you go? Do you love to travel?

What a Great Weekend!

This weekend was a really good one! I spent time with family and friends all weekend long!
Friday night, I went to the Greenwood football game where I met up with my friend Amber.
Amber and I became friends in 7Th grade. We became known as Amber squared and big Amber and little Amber. Amber is married and has two precious babies. I love that when we see each other it is like we were just together the day before! Isn't it great to have friends like that!
Then, Saturday morning I woke up early and went and watch my friend Kristy run! She did amazing! I have worked with Kristy the past three years and we have an amazing friendship that grows stronger each day. She is the the kind of friend that is there for you no matter what! She would do anything to help me and encourages me daily! After this I came home and watched the Hogs play! Woo Pig Sooie!! They won....although it was ugly that pulled of the win! The good thing about football is a "W" is a "W." After that, I went and watched some Kristy's daughter cheer! She was adorable and they did so good! I had no plans that night sooo.....I randomly decided to drive to Rogers and spend time with Mayci and Caleb! We did a little shopping and watched Elf! I love that movie! Mayci loves Christmas and of course so do I! I love spending time with Mayci and Caleb, too! I know I have talked about them before..Mayci and I were college roommates! She is the person who knows the most about me and loves me anyway! LOL! She is a great friend! I came home Sunday and ate dinner and play Super Nintendo with Alexis and Taylor! I love those two! We have so much fun doing nothing! I need to add a side note...Alexis made Cajun Chicken Pasta(like they have at Chili's) it was Amazing! She might just become a cook afterall! Hope you all had a great weekend! I look forward to many more weekends to come like this!!

Confusion

This topic has been on my heart a lot lately and I feel so confused! Let me start from the beginning...When I moved back to Greenwood it just felt right to go back to the church I grew up in! I had sweet friend still going there and had served there on and off throughout college. After being there about 6 months my friend Rachel and I were approached about starting a class for young women in their 20s. We lead the class but had tremendous difficulties trying to get people to come! We had a couple girls come and I have grown to love them and really get to know them. Long story short Rachel and one of the other girls got married. This left us with two or three in our class and our awesome leader Dana. Well to get to the point basically the class fizzled out. Throughout this time I have just had this feeling that I need to find somewhere else to go or somewhere to get feed(God's word of course.). I have always wanted to go to church and really miss it when I am not there but lately I just don't feel that way. Our class joined another class and I am liking the women in there but I still just don't feel right. They are older than I and all have children that are mostly older, too. I NEED prayers! I NEED Guidance! I NEED to know how to meet other single young people my age! I NEED to know where God wants me and how to serve and meet the needs of others!! I love Jesus and Love serving and want to do what God wants me too do regardless of my comfort level!! Please pray for me!!
