It is amazing to look at where I have been in the past year. I look back at New Years, and I look at where I am now, and I cant believe it. God has given me my best friend, and so many blessings that I cant even begin to express how thankful I am.

If this year has taught me anything, it is that to say you trust God is one thing, but to see it in every day life is something on a totally different level. I am so blessed to have a God that cares about the stupid things with me.

The other night I was talking to Stephanie in bed, and I asked her if she ever thinks that God didn't have an idea what he was doing when he gave his son for us... I sometimes wonder. I know I dont deserve to have forever with Him, but I sure am thankful.

So here is to another year in Fresno, learning to rely on God, and learning how to enjoy a life that God has given us to enjoy.
