Favorite Song Friday...A Day Late

I meant to do a favorite song Friday yesterday but forgot, and I really didn't have one to be honest; when I turned on my ipod for the first time last night in several weeks the first song I listened to seemed so fresh and new, despite the fact that it has been on there for a while:
"Come Save" Sarah Reeves

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone! We did ours a little bit different this year as we usually go to our relatives in NJ but this was mom's turn to work on Christmas day so we did Christmas at home; it was the very first one we've had in this particular house. We opened presents on Christmas Eve and then Dad came down early this morning and we cooked breakfast and did presents and hung out with him. I rant and rave at my mom because she spoils us on Christmas but she is such a good shopper and gift giver! She always seems to know what we need and want; my favorite gift would have to be the slippers she found me that are all wool and when you wear them, together they make a daschund ( I want one really bad at some point in my life)-they are just adorable!

2009 is coming to a close (that was fast) so 2010 here we come; looking forward to the New Year and all that God has planned for me :)

This is What Happens....

When there is nobody shopping in Duck!  Here by myself for the day at the Culinary Duck and so far no one has showed up to shop, sooo that means I pull out photo booth and have some fun :)







Oh, and I will admit I'm pretty sad that a week after I leave Greensboro, they get dumped on with snow, and my old hometown in MD is getting over a foot (possible closer to 2 feet); sighhh, oh well I guess if we got snowed in here on the OBX, I wouldn't be able to go to work-God knows what he's doing!

It's Up...

I just want to state that Megan, Brandy, and I went to pick this tree out ourselves and I think it looks pretty good.... pretty darn good.... what do you think?

Home

Home!
I successfully moved out of my dorm yesterday, putting stuff in storage and taking the rest home.  It is so strange not having anything to do!  I'm just so used to be going going all the time that things like watching TV (P.S. Eloise at Christmastime, It's a Wonderful Like, and Criminal Minds are all amazing), working out, taking extended naps on the couch, and sleeping in are almost foreign..... but great at the same time.  
I'm looking forward to helping mom decorate for Christmas on Monday and Tuesday, and then nest Monday I start working at the Culinary Duck for about 2 weeks (thank you God for the hours).  
Australia update:  Not a whole lot of new info., waiting on my housing stuff to go through, and starting to get  few things for my trip like my luggage.  Still hasn't quite hit me that that is where I will be next semester. 
Here's a Christmas song that I love to wrap things up:
When love came down by Point of Grace

Favorite Song Friday

Alive Again

This song by Matt Maher has been out for several months but it has been my favorite song this week.

"You called and you shouted, broke through my deafness, I'm breathing in, I'm breathing out, I'm alive again,You shattered my darkness, broke through my blindness, now I'm breathing in, I'm breathing out, I'm alive again"

Praise Report:  I got my plane ticket for Australia on Tuesday!
