I had the best birthday ever! I love each and every one of my friends! You guys are AWESOME!! I would post pictures, but, unfortunatly, my computer is messing up. Soo... I will try to get pictures on here at some point, but no promises. We had pizza and cake, we played "Prince Albert Lost His Hat" and I believe that everyone had a good time playing that. :) "Prince Albert lost his hat and he doesn't no where to find it, number 4 go to the end of the line!" Ah yes. Good times. Afterwards, we had a worship time, and after that I sang a song to all of my friends there. i hope people were ministered by it. I wish that all of my friends could have been there, but, oh well. So thank you to all who were able to come! I love you guys! I had friends from church and from Greenleaf there. I LOVE it when my worlds collide. For those of you that couldn't make it (or the ones who live several states away) here is the song that I sang.
The Words I Would Say
Sidewalk Prophets
Three in the morning, and I’m still awake
So I picked up a pen and a page
And I started writing just what I’d say
If we were face to face
I’d tell you just what you mean to me
Tell you these simple truths
Be strong in the Lord
And never give up hope
You’re gonna do great things
I already know
God’s got His hand on You
So don’t live life in fear
Forgive and forget
But don’t forget why you’re here
Take your time and pray
These are the words I would say
Last time we spoke you said you were hurting
And I felt your pain in my heart
I want to tell you that I keep on praying
That love will find you where you are
I know cause I’ve already been there
So please hear these simple truths
Be strong in the Lord
And never give up hope
You’re gonna do great things
I already know
God’s got His hand on You
So don’t live life in fear
Forgive and forget
But don’t forget why you’re here
Take your time and pray
These are the words I would say
From one simple life to another
I will say… Come find peace in the Father
Be strong in the Lord
And never give up hope
You’re gonna do great things
I already know
God’s got His hand on You
So don’t live life in fear
Forgive and forget
But don’t forget why you’re here
Take your time and pray
And thank God for each day
His love will find a way
These are the words I would say
So.... yeah. I just sang that song a little bit higher.
My friend, Stephanie, has a blog. Her blog is deticated to book reviews. She reads one book a week and does her own personal review on it. Last week, she did a review on Josh Harris' book "I kissed dating goodbye". I was really blessed by it. And maybe that is just because it is an amazing thing for me to see the girls I grew up with writing stuff like this. Steph gave me permission to share it with you so... here! Thanks Steph!
Once more, I love all of you guys! You are my brothers and sisters in Christ. Thank you so much for constantly pointing me towards the Cross. And thanks for making my party totally awesome... and as least about me as possible! :P

Happy belated birthday then! Now you can drive!
yeah. Thanks. I have my permit... but i don't really drive that much... I guess that's because I don't really go anywhere. :)
I just wanted to tell you that that song was Awesome very touching and you sang Lovely!
Thanks, Saffron. I was a little bummed it didn't turn out better. I had sang it better in practices, but after singing all of those really high songs in worship, my voice got a little croaky. Oh well. God can work through anything... even me when my voice messes up on me. :)
