Lovin Vail but no time to really update. But, just know that I am happy as a clam and about to go hiking.

Here we go.

In t minus 36 hours I will be headed out to Colorado, one of my favorite places on earth to spend my summer.

I am both excited and terrified. Excited to see what God will do, excited to take a break from my relationship with Bowling Green, Ohio. Excited to work and love people. Excited to be immersed in an entirely different and new community. Excited to camp and feel free in the mountains.

I am also terrified. Normal reasons that aren't worth typing out. But you know the feeling. The one where you are between one place and another. You're still required to live in a room with empty walls and no bed. Your life, once again packed in boxes. The fear of everything comfortable basically torn from your grip. Anxiously waiting the next move. That's what I'm feeling. This room that I had for a year is no longer mine. I guess it never really was.


And so I'm off. To the state that gets the most sunshine a year, (Or so I am told) to Vail, Colorado. To hopefully see God move mountains (haha GET IT?). To Grow. Because I am still a little baby and I want to be bigger someday.

See you in two months.

School Year Memories.

My fourth year of college is done. And it doesn't feel like it. It doesn't feel like I've been in college for four years and it doesn't feel like it's over. It doesn't feel like next year will be my LAST year. (ew). But, whatever. Here's a trip down memory lane, eh? With some favorite memories.

-When Amy Seiffert got pregnant.
-WOMEN'S WEEKEND.
-Seeing mountains in New Hampshire. It was beautiful.
-Mustache party and sparkle party.
-Watching Jesus meet my friend.
-Breaking bread with Amy and Rob.
-When Robby told me I was his friend.
-When Katie came home from India and layed in my bed and shared life with me.
-Easter with the Duvalls.
-Finding out I'm spending my summer in Colorado.
-Car rides home with Amy after Cru.
-Lifegroup.
-The thousands of times Libby Foulds and I laughed so hard together.

You are a park bench at the bottom of the ocean.

I feel lonely all the time and I'm struggling to figure out how to make it stop.

Can't depend on people; must depend on God.
