What a friend I have in Jen! We had a fantastic night together!

I am thankful that the situation isn't worse and that I caught it in time, but it is still kinda ( Read more... )

I was up late last night. It was a fun night overall. I didn't want to go to church this morning because I was so tired, but I am so thankful I did. The sermon was about Walking with God by having integrity. You know those sermons that you hear and you feel like were just written for you to hear them? That was what this morning's sermon was like ( Read more... )
