My Birthday March 15, 2008

                                                                                  

Well there may be some of you who read this and think to yourself, “Oh My Gosh thats right it was her birthday I totally forgot!” And to those I say its ok I understand that I don’t have a myspace to conveniently remind my friends when it is my birthday. Anywho, I am not upset, a little disappointed just to be honest. However, I am over it and am going on. Those who did remember were incredibly sweet and made me feel very special. I spent the whole day at work and everyone at the office sang Happy Birthday at a nice chinese bistro place. We were also recognizing interns, Adam and Jenny’s last day. So it was a bittersweet lunch. Darrell and Becky and their family were all waiting for me at their daughter’s house it was also their son-in-law’s bday as well. So we ate some cake and played a mean game of Mexican train. I received beautiful roses from my mom and a nice card and mula from my dad. I also got a package from Jeff and Jenny that had half eaten Peeps (apparently they ate half to “help”me whatever) and a shirt that Jeff picked out and a wedding magazine and some other odds and ends. I also got a package from Angela that had two shirts. So thank you everyone who made my day very special.

On the Hunt For Some Gators! March 4, 2008

                                                                                                                           

Ok so the other design interns and I decided that we couldn’t possibly leave Florida without seeing some gators. So we drove down with two other employees of Relevant, Theresa and Wes to Lake Jessup. This lake is right next to a little league park and a jungle gym where there are tons of kids. And sure enough we spotted like 6 or 7 gators! They were right there very close to easily attack an unexpecting human. It was very fun we were all very excited and satisfied to have spotted some gators. Afterwards we all decided that a Shamrock shake from McDonalds sounded so good and that is precisely what we did.

In Loving Memory of Christina Little February 22, 2008

                                            

At about 11am today Chris went to Heaven. Although a better place than here on earth, it is a sad day for her family and friends. Pleas keep Gary her husband, Amanda and Kayla her two daughters in constant prayer. They are an amazing strong family and need your continual prayers for them through this tough period in their lives. I am so very sad that I am almost 3,000 miles away and feel extremely hopeless to my beloved friend Amanda. Although I would love to fly out and be with her family through all of this $300 for a round trip ticket is nowhere feasible. So also pray that God will give me the wisdom and understanding to know how to give the best support I can possibly give from where I am now. Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers.
