Tomorrow at 1600 one of my oldest friends is getting married. I've known her my since she was born when I was 5 months old. She and her groom have been dating for 10 years, since we were all in high school.

It is exciting for me to think that she is finally getting married. She is excited, and it is awesome that the Lord has allowed me to be here for all the festivities. She and I have celebrated so much together.

I know that I was stressing about the trip out here,...

It seems to me that we humans spend a LOT of time waiting. We wait in lines at stores, the gas station, for something to begin on television, and we wait for people to show up.

Right now I am in the last category. I am waiting for my SO to return home after being gone for awhile (just a week). It has only been since Sunday that I last saw and talked with him, but it seems like longer.

My hometown is in Wyoming and next week I'll be flying back to see my parents, grandma, nephew and attend a wedding.

As many of us know before seeing the movie, a lot of Star Trek history has been changed. And even though they are going back in time to when Kirk, Spock, Bones and Scottie...

Congrats to me! I've officially graduated from Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary with an M.A. in Pastoral Counseling. I am one step closer to my ultimate goal of my doctorate in PACO with the focus on military counseling! How exciting is this??? I'm tired, but excited to begin the next step of the journey.
