Isn't it amazing the grace the God gives to us. I am overwhelmed by it when I think about all that God has done for me. He has bestowed upon me grace and I am so thankful for it. Its stronger, deeper, and higher than anything else. Without it I would be lost.
God is good all the time!
The summer seems like it shouldn't be ending in just a few short weeks. Needless to say, I have had a good summer. My summer has been working, sleeping, and playing with little kids.
In just a few short hours I will be leaving for New Mexico! I'm looking forward to going out there again this year, but the 30 hours one way in a vehicle doesn't sound like fun right now. The return trip is even worse than going because of being exhausted. At least I will be spending the next two weeks with some close friends, and will be catching up with all the teens from last year and hopefully new ones ;) I'm especially looking forward to seeing Ashley. Pictures and details will all be coming when I get back
The best thing about this summer is that I had a new nephew born!!!! He is the cutest little guy I have seen. I would post pictures of Rylan Grady, but I don't have any on my computer yet :(
Next time I hope to blog sooner, but knowing me, I will probably be in the middle of Fall semester.....lets hope that doesn't happen.
Life is busy. I'm stressed. Ready for it all to be over. Just a few more days....I can make it.
So, I have a few options for the next year, and I need to make decisions soon. Not exactly sure what I am suppose to do, but I know the answers will come at the right time.
I have lots to do so I shall return to homework I believe. Oh, I'm looking forward to next weekend!!! So excited to go home and relax as much as possible :-)

*Take a deep breath* I'm so glad my week is over. It was a busy week but it was a very interesting one at that. Had a good conversation with some of my girls from Teen Power Thursday, went to a banquet, worked, talked to my papaw :) that always makes me happy, and did a bunch of other things. Here are a few pictures from the banquet.
Cousins :)

I had trouble keeping my eyes open so they tried to help meMy life recently:
Busy. Ready for a weekend. Needs to go home. Wants to go home. Having withdraws from my momma's food. Sweet tea. Life. Always on the run. Lack of sleep. Glad for days off. Homework. Banquets. Drama. Family. God. Busy. Work. Teens. Homework.Busy.Few hours of sleep
Second semester is always busy. Seems like summer break arrives very quick. I must say this is the worst semester I have had. Its so busy. Classes are going good but takes a lot of time and loaded with homework.
Sleep is something I don't get enough of.
God is good all the time! I'm thankful I have a relationship with him
Good-night all
Seems like he should still be this little again. Time sure does fly! I love you Bubby
Just to let you know I consider you one of my closest friends. You were there for me when I needed you and in return I was there when you needed me. I will miss talking to you, eating with you, visiting you in the library, working together, and my random hugs from you . I especially will miss you as my seat buddy ;).

Great Memories
Mushrooms! A long long hilarious story!Makin' a list of all of the good things You've done for me
Lord, I've never been one to complain
But right now I'm lost and I can't find my way
My world's come apart and it's breakin' my heart
But it helps to know Your heart is breakin' too
When I cry, You cry
When I hurt, You hurt
When I've lost someone
It takes a piece of You, too
And when I fall on my face
You fill me with grace
'Cause nothin' breaks Your heart
Or tears You apart
Like when I cry
Alone in the dark, face in my hands, crying out to You
Lord, there's never been a time in my life
There's so much at stake, there's so much to lose
But I trust it to You
You'll bring me through
And it helps me to know that I'm not alone
When I cry, You cry
When I hurt, You hurt
When I've lost someone
It takes a piece of You, too
And when I fall on my face
You fill me with grace
'Cause nothin' breaks Your heart
Or tears You apart
Like when I cry
You're the one who calmed the raging sea
You're the one who made the blind to see
You looked through all of heaven and eternity
And through it all you saw me...
When I cry, You cry
When I hurt, You hurt
And when I've lost someone it takes a piece of You, too
When I fall on my face, You fill me with grace
Nothing breaks your heart, or tears you apart
Like when I cry
