the christmas letter

for the past several (i think 5 or 6) years, my christmas duty has been to write the "traditional" family christmas letter. that annual thing that goes out at the end of every year and recounts only family highlihts.....sound familiar?

well.....this year, the chrismas letter is available via email in a jpg format. if you're interested, send send me a location and i'll get it to you soon.

so as to not give the surprises in this year's letter away.......here's last year's edition.....

the end

someone reminded me recently that i haven't blogged in a while....

holy smokes! it's been about two months!

the end of this last semester was overwhelming to say the least. no-sleep-november quickly progressed to dead-week and then finals.......ugh....

funny thing though. now that the semester is over.....and the grades are all in.....i don't remember the pain and stress nearly as vividly as the incredible support of friends, roommates, and mentors during that season.

thank you, friends. all of you who prayed/continue to pray for strength and healing. and darn it! words just aren't adequate right now. i'm so blessed.......there's little more i can say.....
