29 and holding...

Well, I am now officially "29 and holding". It has been a great birthday week. The celebration began last week when I had a really great dinner out with a special group of girlfriends. We spent the whole evening eating and chatting and it was one of the most pleasant birthday dinners I've ever had! This past weekend I travelled to my tiny Texas hometown of Albany. I celebrated my 10 year high school reunion and had a family birthday party today. This weekend was a great time to reconnect with lots of people from high school. As I interacted with them, I was reminded that I was a totally different person back then. It is obvious that my life has been transformed by Jesus Christ. As I look back over the past ten years, I take great joy in knowing that I am a new person because of Him. The life and salvation I have found in Him is beyond anything I could have imagined. It has been a life of adventure, satisfaction, and countless opportunities to trust and follow Him. I am truly grateful. . .

Happy birthday, dear Nicole! I remember celebrating several with you--both in Turkey and Texas. I hope you have a fabulous 29th year.
Love,
