Full Circle . . . Another Thanksgiving

The year has come full circle. I started this blog a year ago this month. In some ways it's been the most painful year of my life . . . in others, a tremendously good year! In the last 12 months, I've been to Poland, back to America, Munich, Prague, Rome & the Alps. I've rented 3 cars and "ridden" on the Autobahn, I've seen my youth group double in size and have witnessed 12 kids accept Christ as Savior. Not a bad year all in all . . .

Today is a special day for me. 24 years ago today, I accepted Christ as MY Savior . . . and, praise God, I've never looked back! This winter will also be a monumental one for me as I turn 30, but I'm amazed at how much God has accomplished in and through my life in ALMOST 30 years.

Once again, Thanksgiving in Germany isn't much to speak of, but I have a LOT to be thankful for today. Happy Thanksgiving!

I also don't want to forget to shout out a "Happy Birthday!" to a very special friend today. Trisha, "Happy Birthday." I love you. I can't believe you're gonna be a mommy. :-)
