Paintings and pictures of my sweet brother

Here are some paintings I did while I was home in Alabama. Some of them the Lord used to provide monehy for me to go to Spain...so pretty sweet. I also put some pics up of my sweet 15 month old brother...isn't he just plan adorable!!

Getting ready for Spain

Its finally here!! I leave for Spain this Sunday the 16th and I'm so super excited! I don't think the reality of it is really hitting me yet, but man I can't wait!

This summer has been awesome in so many different ways. I took classes, worked, spent some great time with my family in Alabama and now in Texas, went to an awesome conference this past weekend, painted, read some great books and just spent good time with friends. Now I get to go and make some new friends, learn more spanish, learn more about life in a different culture, see more beauty of this world and just have a plain awesome time. I'm going with expectation! I know it will be difficult too, but what isn't. Its going to be alot of about choosing how to take each day and making the most of each moment I am given rejoicing and with being thankful.

I pretty much going to be putting photos on here and send out e-mails with my updates. I have not quite yet figured out how to put photos on here, but it could be that my grandparents have dial-up and it just doesn't like crazy things such as photos being moved from place to place. So hopefully I will get that going soon and I put up pictures from home, FOCUS (the conference), and some my paintings. If your are reading this and your not and on my e-mail update list, just let me know and I'll add you. Happy Monday!
