Holy Snow!

Yeah, how's about 10 inches of it! Woo! I am in love with snow....it's official! I will marry it. Yep. No, I don't love it THAT much but I really do like it a whole lot. I'm so happy we got so much. I was able to go sledding yesterday and today, even though I was by myself and I was sick. The sick part was not so good because my nose was running like crazy and I couldn't breathe. But other than that it was great! Well, enough about that...

9 DAYS! Count em niiiiiiiiiiiiine until Argentina. Holy shnikees! Well pretty much 8 now...A week from tomorrow, I will fly down to Tampa and we will leave for the wonderful, hot, Argentinian summer on Tuesday! Oh it's going to be fantastic! I'm actually excited to go onto campus again. Probably because I am not going to go to class; I am going to go on a missions trip...wahoo!!! AND when we get back I get to see my lovely Karo, whom I miss like crazy. I am just so excited of almost 2 weeks straight of serving God as hard as I can and watching Him work.

Christmas is only a few days away. Praise the LORD for sending His Son to earth for us! And I'm so excited to give my family their presents. I love watching people open gifts that I got for them. And my sister and her hubby will be here. It really is a great time of year!

If you read this, and you think of it, please pray for my friend from school, Alyssa McLanahan. A couple months ago, she had a seizure. She had all sorts of tests done and the doctors determined that she had a brain tumor. Alyssa had to leave school and go home to have more tests and to figure out what they were going to do. She just had brain surgery on Monday and was doing well. But a couple days ago she started having lots of swelling on her brain and she had 6 more seizures. I haven't really heard a definite update yet, but I know that she would appreciate our prayers as her body tried to recover. Thanks!

...until next time...

Getting anxious...

I can barely wrap my mind around the fact that I will be going to Argentina in 15 days. It seems like yesterday it was a long 9 months away that we were going and there was PLENTY of time. It didn't actually seem real that I would be for real going on this trip. But it is real. And it is in 15 very short, very busy days. I've been praying that God will use me and change me in Argentina. And I don't like change. But change is what everyone needs to be more Christ-like. I don't even know...I can't think right now because I have too many things going through my head so I better just stop writing. Yes, I am very anxious about this trip, but I am also very very very excited. I love to travel and experience new places and I love seeing what God will do through people who are willing to be used by Him wherever He sends them! Pray for me that I will be a vessel completely available for His use!
