2011: The Year in Review

January 

The Lord started teaching me about prayer and patience. He then led me on the start of a journey that would change my whole summer and I applied with the North American Mission Board (NAMB). 

February

I got to have a snowy winter! It wasn't a white Christmas, but I was glad to see snow at least for a little while. 

March

I spent my Spring Break on a road trip to Texas to celebrate my cousin's wedding! 

April

This was definitely the most life-changing month of this past year. 

First, I found out that I would be spending my summer serving with NAMB in New Orleans, Louisiana! 

Then, the southeast was torn apart by deadly tornadoes, including my college-town of 

Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

May

I moved to New Orleans, Louisiana for the summer! 

June

My job as a counselor at Camp NOLA Kidz got into full swing 

and I fell in love with more amazing children! 

July

I celebrated the 4th of July in NOLA with amazing, new friends! 

The kids in NOLA continued to be amazing! 

August

My job in New Orleans ended and I moved back to Tuscaloosa into my new apartment! 

September 

My super-senior year got underway and I went on my last Fall Retreat with my College Ministry.

And my last Alabama Football season started.

October

I went to a Pumpkin Patch for the first time with some friends! 

November 

I got to see one of my favorite bands, NEEDTOBREATHE, in concert! 

I also went to my last Barn Dance with the BCM and my college ministry.

December 

I had a tacky, Christmas party with my college ministry.

I was reunited with my bestest, best friend after 8 months of not seeing each other!

 I started my Christmas Break by picking her up from the airport and spending a couple days with her, she also took Senior Pictures for me. It was the best Christmas present ever getting to see her!

Lastly, had a great Christmas with my family and celebrated another birthday!

Happy New Year!
