Enid, OK...Close to the Most Exciting Place on Earth :)


Good ol E-town. My aunt Lyn was celebrating her 60th birthday and it kind of turned out to be a family reunion. I grew up in Enid, OK...lived there from 1 yr old to 15 years old. Had some good times there. It's always kind of weird to go back there though. My dad moved back there a few years ago, so I go back time to time. It worked out perfectly because I'm on break right now from work in Jamaica. My mom & I left last Saturday morning for the 5 hour drive going north on I35. Everyone got together at Nancy & Bob's house. There was Kacy (Kacy Bear), her sis Corey, Nick, Shannon, Lyn & KD, my dad, Jimmy, Pam, Joel, Trevor, Cody, BJ, Vivi & a few others that aren't coming to mind. It was so good seeing everyone, especially my daddy bear! I hadn't seen Vivi in 10 years! I even saw some people from junior high!! Ross Stallings! We ended up playing ping pong till about 5am!! And I am not a night person!! So, turned out to be a fun trip after all!
Now, I'm back in Dallas, spending my last week here till I head back to Jamaica. Some relaxing, swimming, spending time with friends & mommy bear, eating SUSHI!, watching movies, having mother/daughter dinners with my friends & their moms, and getting in some work as well. I had SUCH a wonderful time with my mommy bear!! We have become SOOO close, she's my best friend. When I'm home in Texas we spend all of our time together. Went out on the lake too, was super fun! Lake Ray Hubbard. Terry has a huge boat.
That's about it on my end. How are YOU doing??!! Let me know what's up!! LOVE YA!~
Actually, I wanted to share something out of this book I'm reading right now. Tito let me borrow it, I love it!
The Barbarian Call

Just do whatever Jesus calls you to do the moment it is clear to you. Do not procrastinate; do not hesitate; do not deviate from whatever course of action He calls you to...you are the most fully alive when you are on an adventure with God....to those of you who cannot see the invisible, to those who refuse to believe it exists, the path you choose, the life you live, may lead them to conclude that you are not simply different but insane.
Incredible! These quotes really hit home to me. Lots of stuff going on right now. Glad to know I'm not the only barbarian!!
