Merry Christmas!

I just wanted to you and your families a very merry christmas! may each of you remember the true meaning of christmas, that Jesus was born to this world.

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the
government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called
Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.”
ISAIAH 9:6

I love you all...
Jenn

thankfulness...

well, i wanted to post with pictures but my transfer program is being stubborn... so let me first off say a happy thanksgiving to you and your families. i pray that you spent the day with the ones you love and thought about all the things we are to be thankful for.

things i am thankful for...

1. my family- either close or far, we make sure to call and chat with one another. and for our almost new member, and sister for me... stephanie!!!
   
2. a roof over my head- and a comfy bed to sleep in.
   
3. friends- that i chat with via email, text or face to face :)
   
4. food- plentiful amounts especially what we had today!
   
5. and much, much more... lower gas prices, days off, sleep, and snow (if it ever comes)!

if i can ever get my pics on, i will post them as well :) gobble gobble!!!

revelation generation

lots to post about rev gen but i want to catch up on my blog so...
i'm just gonna post a few highlights from the weekend

this was my first time going, and i will say right now... i'm going back next year! it was amazing and there were sooooo many artist that comes so there was always someone to worship with!

here are caitlin, janet and myself
we went the first night and saw mandesa, leeland, and chris tomlin! all did a great job, but worship with chris tomlin live was A-mazing!

just us gals being silly tying to waste time...smooshy faces :)
does anyone have to go to the bathroom?! i think they had plenty.
word to the wise, only use the first night... too many people the second day!

breakfast with the gals on day two....nicole joined us!

and we meet alisha there too!

janet and me... can you tell it was super hot out?!

the things we do for laughs!

the richards go like every year... it was nice to see people we knew ;)

definitely a great time with a great bunch of gals!

so that weekend we ended up seeing...

Mandesa, Leeland, Chris Tomlin the first night.

then saturday we saw everyone from...

smaller local worship bands, Bethany Dillion,
Shawn McDonald, Toby Mac, and the Newsboys!

i know that i'm missing some but it was sooo long ago i can't remember now,
and the fact that it is almost 1 am isn't helping!!!
