I THOUGHT THIS WAS GOOD MY FIRST EVER POST ON XANGA!!! BRANDON WAS THE ONE THAT GOT ME STARTED!!!
ok brandon i am going to try this, but i am not promising much!!! when i got home today i was surprised with a shower of silly string and confetti, seems shel and ralfy thought i needed to have a happy un-birthday party considering i never ever had my own cake... i always had to share with my twin sister who i must say is older than i am!! she turned the big 50... 8 minutes before i did! so mike figured out i am 18,412 day old today!
mike and i are currently looking for a place to call home after we leave here, and it sure would help if we knew what we wanted!!! i found a one room school house that was built in the 1800's but shel wasn't real excited about that one! considering there was no inside plumbing, ok so then i found an old victorian in wanatah i want to go look at, i always have dreamed of living in one of those, we are going to look at it tomorrow so i'll let you know what we think of it, location and all... then there is always the camp-ground thing, but that would mean seriously getting rid of a lot of the possessions which sometimes seems like a good idea, because they can really get in the way of a certain lifestyle that we would like to live...hmmmm so i've been praying a lot lately, but i haven't seemed to get any answers yet... i am trying to be still but that is hard to do sometimes.
that is all for my first entry you all have a great night
i have been praying continually for quite some time now and am trusting that wherever we end up is where God wants us to be

today we went caroling to the indiana veterans home in west lafayette... with a group from church...i had no idea that place was that big! walking through the halls and singing carols and we wish you a merry christmas, the people were so thankful for us coming, it was an awesome feeling standing there in their rooms around their beds and singing to them and some of them singing with us, you could see tears in their eyes, and you just knew they were thinking of Christmas' from the past. we thanked them for serving our country and they were so content, even if just for that moment. GOD BLESS AMERICA and for sure JESUS IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON:)
