We have a MAC Bible Study that started up at the beginning of the school year and between 10-15 come! It has been great to see the Lord at work in the MAC program and to build a community of believers! One night in February, some of the MAC kids went to Frankies at Brier Creek!

Grad School is officially OVER!! Praise the Lord. It's hard to believe I've already finished but God was so faithful is sustaining me throughout the year and providing for my every need. It was the hardest year of school for sure and I'm so glad it's over! I'll be posing some pics/updates from the past 6 months!

Psalm 100:

¹ Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth.

² Worship the LORD with gladness;
come before him with joyful songs.

³ Know that the LORD is God.
It is he who made us, and we are his;
we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.

⁴ Enter his gates with thanksgiving
and his courts with praise;
give thanks to him and praise his name.

⁵ For the LORD is good and his love endures forever;
his faithfulness continues through all generations.

Disney!

Before Christmas, my bro and I headed to Florida for a friend's wedding and had to stop by Disney World. Mark knows the in's and out's of Disney and should be a professional tour guide. We went to ALL 4 parks in the 2 days we were there. Here are some highlights!

Cirque Du Soleil is worth the money! It was awesome!

He really doesn't need the map.

Bug's Life!

Christmas Festivities!

Leah & I ventured to the Farmers Market to buy a little tree to put in our bay window! It fit perfectly in Leah's trunk! We didn't have a tree stand so we tried for at least 45 minutes to rig one up but it was unsuccessful so we went to Big Lots to buy a stand (a poor quality one at that) so our poor little tree leans. I didn't get a picture of the finished product but it is great!

Leah & attempted 'tree stand'

This is Leah "sawing/cutting" the branches off the bottom using a pair of kitchen scissors that broke and then a kitchen knife which finally did the trick. We were struggling.

My lovely friend Madison hosted a craft party at her house the Sunday before exams. She prepared lots of great food and was a great hostess!

Madison!

Another Break!

It seems like the only time I'm able to blog is when there is a break! The past few weeks have been busy and thing have finally settled down. Soon I will have to put away the computer and start studying for the CPA exam :(

Here are a few pictures of recent happenings!

My sweet Bible Study girls celebrated Christ's birth by coming over to my house for dinner, a little game of dirty Santa, and cookie decorating! They are a joy to be around and I love seeing God at work in their lives!

Finally a Break!

Praise the Lord Thanksgiving break is here! I'm so thankful for this little time to regroup and prepare for the last week of class filled with presentations and assignments. The past few weeks have been crazy! I haven't taken many pictures but here are a few:


Me & Leah were able to go to the first basketball exhibition in Reynolds! The games seem so much more fun in Reynolds!

I got to watch my bro run/finish his first 1/2 Marathon!

I was able to perform "Close Your Eyes" at the NCSU Dance Company Fall Concert! Lauren and I always enjoy performing this piece and it was exciting to be a part of the alumni concert! I had many wonderful supporters: 8 people from my MAC Bible Study came as well as Leah, Tiffany, my parents, the Hortons & Erin & Jeremy! Thanks for coming!!!!

NC State Football!

I was born and raised and State fan so of course I love Wolfpack sports and never a fair-weather fan (which my bro is becoming...Mark this is not ok and you can't cheer for UNC). Anyways, I haven't been able to go to as many football games as I would like because of school but here are a few pictures from the games I have been able to go to.

Me & Leah before the rain came.

Me & Lindsey...she is in the MAC program with me and has an amazing heart to share the Gospel with the people in the Amazon!

Me, Steph & Leah with an H!

Go Pack!
