christmas

Welp...Christmas is over, it was a good year. I can't believe 2008 starts tomorrow! We had a great Christmas...we got to spend time with both of our families and we got to spend a lot of time with each other. The staff party was a blast and very encouraging and our home group sweater party was very memorable :)

I think the biggest theme of the past couple of weeks has been me realizing I'm not okay. I don't know what's going on really, but somewhere in the past few months or years or whatever I have just stopped communicating. I'm scared to let people know who I am and I hate crying in front of people so I feel like if I open up too much the tears will come. So, I just hide it. I'm not really sure what I'm hiding, but I hope to find out. Matt's sermon on Sunday was a great reminder to ask "how?" as well as Lauren's blog you should check out the blog and listen to the podcast to hear the sermon! Anyways...pray for me if you think about it.

On a lighter note...I am finally going to post some pictures from the past few weeks!
