Wow so i have entered my 20s.....wow that is weird and yes old! i can't believe it but i am officially there. it's super exciting though- i'm entering a new decade. a decade in which i will accomplish my dream of becoming a doctor so i can help others for the rest of my life. plus i really want to get married in my 20s- not to mention maybe even have a baby....wow thats so weird! i can't wait...its going to be amazing. anyways well thank you for all for making my bday absolutely amazing. i am continually amazed at how many ppl are in my life and how many friends God has blessed me with. first off, about 20 of us went to the olive garden monday nite for my bday. i'm listing everyone for my own remembering so when i get old i will know :)....lori, jane, victoria, shalane, malia, fabio, amber, clay, cornett, bethany, liz, ash gordo, jen gray, ash armstrong, andrea b, and of course andrew! anyways it was a fun nite. matt and mckenzie joined us after to play cranium at my house. i love you guys and gals so much. thank you for the pink gifts. but more than that thank you for loving me in a way i can't explain! anyways so what you all really want to know is : WHO IS THE NEW BOY? he's making the away messages and he's officially the boyfriend so for me this is serious!!!! well his name is andrew, and i met him through the college group at my church! actually i met him at a USF football game- but then we started hanging out at all the church events and the tree. i had a crush on him but i didn't really want to vocalize it-well bc then everybody knows! its just the way things worked. so i just kept quiet- prayed about it and enjoyed the nites i did get to see him. plus i was watching him from afar. i'll never forget one nite he drove me home from applebees back to my car. he was telling me he'd never had a gf before- and i told him that i thought that was amazing and that he was really blessed. i told him i'd kill for that- bc i think its such a special gift. and he was like yeah i guess you are right. (later he told me no one had ever told him that before). but that nite in the car i remember asking him- well dont u think there is a perfect girl out there that God has for u? and he looked at me and was like YEAH I PRAY FOR HER EVERY NITE! that nite i remember going home thinking wow hes so wonderful. things were getting better. and he began calling me. we began our dance lessons for the christmas show- and hes sooo much fun. hes goofy and adorable and the life of the room. i love that about him. our personalities match sooo well! anyways finally i told gordo that i had a crush- and she knew that he liked me. so she told him to pursue me- and he did. it was cute! so much fun. that weekend we had the veterans banquet and then he had middle school retreat. hes a middle school leader- and i have no doubt that hes an amazing one with those boys. he has a gift for making ppl laugh and for making life just fun! anyways he sent me a couple texts that weekend and i couldnt wait to see him that sunday. we played volleyball after church, and then that nite we had more dance practice. but after church that nite he sent me a text that basically said he thought i was so amazing, beautiful, and Godly....and by then i knew it was God working it all out. monday nite we talked on the phone for like 3 hours, tuesday nite we sat together at the tree house, and tuesday nite we talked like all nite and both spilled how we felt. then wednesday nite he asked me out- and it was official. it has been absolutely incredible- and yes its only been a week but i've never felt more right about dating someone. He is everything i need spirirtually and everything i want in a guy. I'm grateful that God brought him into my life- he brings so much light and joy. Hunney- if you read this smile because its all true and its coming straight from my heart. anyways i am happy- sooooo happy. he made my birthday amazing. i love being his first girlfriend- its such an honor. he told me he waited 19 years for this- and hed do it all over again if he knew he was going to meet a girl like me. so there you go. how can u not like him guys? please trust me in that he's a good guy. you will all meet him soon enough. he's met the rents and he did really well! anyways so yes its going to be an exciting adventure- one solely set on glorifying God!!! im so thrilled and blessed. anyways it was the best birthday and i cant stop smiling!!! i hope you all are doing great and that God is working in your life. he's been soo great to me lately and i dont know why i deserve any of this. i am so just a normal girl- and yet God treats me like i am the most precious daughter he has. he will treat u that way as well- i promise! he knows no other way to treat u. oh by the way- i saw mercy me with lauren, erika, lindy, colin, mom, dad, and andrew on saturday! the best concert ever- they rock this world. they bring you to the thrown of Christ and wow its unexplainable. just go see them! anyways i was so glad i got to see my girls and i love them to death. i'm glad i got to share andrew with them- bc they mean soooo much to me. i adore everyone of you- and all that u stand for.
