Last night Chris had us over to the farmhouse to surprise Dave for his 24th. We got Dave to come back from his grandparents by Chris calling him and telling him that he accidently shot DJ in the foot while target shooting. lol he bought it. We got him good! Chris lit the 24 candles on the ice cream cake TEN minutes before he got there. Jennifer and I thought that it would slide right off the way DJ was holding it! Anyhow we ended up chillin and Jennifer, Sarah and I played Nintendo. While Peter, Dave, Chris, DJ and Nate watched the Broncos/Chiefs game. Fun had by all.

I drove home tonight after work, not hauling butt, just a nice drive home listening to my newly mixed cds that i consolidated 13 of them into 4 – the songs I actually like. I was enjoying the evening drive home and thinking to myself how happy I am with life. I mean nothing OVERLY exciting is happening- I am looking forward to Ireland next yr but I mean as far as this point in time. I am just geniunely happy in life. I got to thinking how God has really helped me be just purely happy for people and their engagements, marriages and dating situations. Even though I’m not even there yet- I’m just happy that they get to experience that and hope that one day I will be in that situation. Afterall wouldnt you want people to be happy for you? Anyhow, I felt really glad and relieved I’ve come to that point in my walk. I feel more mature each passing day. ’23’ in a week…wow 7 more yrs and I’ll be 30- dang! life is but a vapor…
