ASK...you shall receive!!

Hi friends and family!!
Well, I just wanted to quickly post some pictures from the most life-changing spring break i've ever encountered in my life. i went with the college ministry at my church in waco (antioch) to juarez, mexico! it was sooo fun. over 500 people went, so we were all split into 12 lifegroup "sections." I grew especially attached to my section during this time, and it feels weird now to not be with them 24/7. I was on the dance team for my section..it was so fun!! the outreaches were amazing. it's cool how you go on a trip like this expecting to only pour out to/share with others...but the Lord just filled me up and worked in me so much at the same time!! I saw some pretty amazing things happen. It was a very needed trip and allowed me to spend a week devoted to God. who doesnt want that??


work day


i just LOVE how attractive we all look while worshipping! haha


dance team! (last day, right before we got on the bus to leave)


dancing at an outreach!!


the best girls on the planet. i spent a majority of my time with them.


first night excitement!!


more dancing at the outreaches!!



elba and i!! people say we look almost identical but i really dont believe them...


dance team!!!
p.s. i was too preoccupied to take pictures during most of the trip so only a select few of these were actually taken by me. I stole these from my friend Wemmy and Gerry Whisler.
this weekend im off to portland oregon to snowboard with my bro!!!
well, i need to get some sleep now!
love you guys!


P.S. IM GOING TO THAILAND THIS SUMMER...its official. :-)

Tag...even though i wasnt really tagged.

10 years ago:
I was 8 years old and in 3rd grade. I got a perm that I thought was the best thing ever but now i realize it was not that attractive...ummm i really liked American Girl Dolls and my teacher's name was Mrs. Tittle.

Things on my to-do list today: well, since its currently 1:15 am, i will make a to-do list for tomorrow. Go to church, eat lunch, Juarez dance practice, Spanish LAC lab work, Wal-Mart run, STUDY STUDY STUDY

What would I do if I suddenly became a Billionaire? hmm! I think I would give a hefty chunk to my sister, my brother, and of course pay my parents for everything theyve paid for for me the past 18 years. after that I think i would send my best friends to Uganda and go on a trip somewhere cool. then I would give the rest to someone else who would have something else better to do with it than myself.

Three of my bad habits are:1. selifshness 2. lack of self-confidence 3. picking

Five jobs I have had: 1. Chick-fil-a! 2. Fantastic Sam's receptionist! 3. Moody Library "labbie"

Five things people don't know about me: 1. I drive stick shift....represent! 2. my worst fear is a spinal tap/epidural...anything that enters my spine. 3. I can do this really weird thing where I roll my stomach. 4. i like to do pilates. 5. when i was 6 i wanted to change my name to Ivy. ha..
