New Year's Fun
I was blessed to have my friend Becky come stay with me over the new year's holiday. We went to a spurs game the first night she was here. My boss came by and invited us up to the company suite, which was a lot of fun! The next night we went to dinner with a couple of friends of mine from KPMG. Afterwards we rung in the new year in my apartment. What a great time!!
Christmas Photos
I didn't take many photos at Christmas (like usual), so see my sister's site for more. Here are the few I had...

Welcoming in 2009!
Wow, what a year has past by. Unfortunately, I did a horrible job keeping up my blog over the last few months. My fall was a wonderful time, especially getting medicine for my thyroid, seeing the family over Christmas, and getting more adjusted to the new job. The new year seems to be off to a great start. I have already lost 12 of the 20lbs I gain from the thyroid issues (thanks to slimfast and exercise). I also joined the choir at church and started up with a new Bible study group. I am so excited to see what new adventures God has in store for me in 2009. Well, I hope that everyone is off to a great start too, and I promise to get some older posts and pictures up soon!

Ada's Visit to the Riverwalk
Here are a couple pictures of our fun evening being tourists on the Riverwalk...
Will's First Birthday
Well, I didn't get very many pictures during the party with my camera (as I was the unofficial photographer for Mandy), but I do have a few shots from the day of Will's birthday. Mandy, Will and I went to Seaport Village for a little walking and window shopping by the sea. It was a beautiful area, and we had a wonderful time. And the iced coffees were amazing!
Blog Update
Its been a while since I updated my blog. I have been staying busy at my new job as Federal Tax Manager for SWBC. I started at the end of July, and I am thoroughly enjoying the tasks and challenges set before me.
A few things that have gone on since my last update... besides the new job. :o) I went to see Mandy and Jered and help ring in Will's first birthday. (I will post some pictures soon.) I had a wonderful time, but I am sad that it is my last time to see them until Christmas... it can't come soon enough. I miss my nephew like crazy!!
As some of you know, my thyroid has been causing me trouble over the last year. The symptoms have been returning, and on my six month blood test, I found out that my thyroid is trending low. I go to the doctor on the 15th to see what he thinks it might be. Please pray for discernment in the cause of my symptoms.
Another new thing in my life is my maid. Yes, I have a maid coming to my apartment to help me keep up with the chores. Its nice to have some help around the house, and I see my self keeping up with the day to day items much better with the help on the cleaning. I just hope I can keep it up because I have really enjoyed having such a clean living space. :o)
I was lucky enough to have my friend Ada come spend the weekend with me recently. We had a wonderful time hanging out, watching TV, and spending some time on the riverwalk. I will post a couple pictures of our little adventure. It was great to have some company... thanks Ada!
Last weekend at church I was blessed to be a part of the cardboard testimony during the service. I felt honored to stand up with fellow Christians and share how the Lord has transformed us from sinners to servants of Christ. It was amazing to see how touched the audience was by our testimonies. It was definitely a once in a lifetime event.
This weekend, I finally took the plunge and joined University United Methodist Church. Over the past several months, this church has become like family to me. I have a wonderful Bible study, a fun young professionals group, as well as plenty of service opportunities to keep me busy, busy, busy. I love all my new friends that have helped me to grow in my relationship with Christ, and challenge me and support me through this journey. What a blessing this church is for me; I look forward to many years within this community.
Well, I think this is everything that has been going on with me lately... I hope that everyone is doing well!!
I will try to keep this thing better updated in the future! :o)
