Happy Birthday to You

Birthday week! I really think this may have been my most fantastic birthday ever.  I was able to do so much with my friends, Monday with Tom at the yummy Cheesecake factory, and wed with a bunch of friends, and then this weekend with my family, and now its snowing!!  

I am so thankful for all of my friends!! I am just really happy with where God has brought me over the past year.  I have dealt with some not so fun stuff, especially my grandmother's stroke.  (she is doing well right now, considering that she had 2 strokes, and she's 89)  I have learned so much about theatre, including how fun lighting design is!  I have grown so much in my relationship with Christ.  I have learned what it really means to be a servant of Christ, and to truly love my neighbor.  I have discovered a passion for the underprivileged around the world and stateside, and am so excited to where God is leading me in the future.  I am looking forward to London in the fall (if I can get the application in!), and maybe the peace corps when I graduate, and eventually "my own" inner city theatre company.  I am so thankful that God has given me these amazing dreams! 

So here is what my goal as a fresh 20 year old is: I want to learn something new everyday.  My goal would be to write a blog every day about what God has taught me that day.  Even if its something small, I want to share what God is doing in my life, cause I know He is doing something big!
