Remembering 2011

It has been a while since I posted last, so I thought I would do a quick recap of some of the highlights from 2011 before beginning fresh in this new year of 2012. Sorry I am a month late, but there's still always reason to celebrate an incredible year before we look ahead.

In 2011:

6. We went to TX twice

7. I spent my first year in the stands (not cheering or coaching) at ASU Football games

18. We spent a weekend at the beach with the coaching staff

19. I staffed my 6th CCA Nationals

20. We both got iPhones!

All in all, lots of traveling, football, celebrations, weddings, accomplishments, etc. I am so thankful for 2011 and the amazing things God allowed us to be a part of. We are blessed in so many ways and the best reminder through all of these memories is that GOD IS FAITHFUL!!

2012 started off on a Sunday and what better way to bring in the New Year, than to wake up on January 1st and head to Cornerstone Summit Church!! As we look ahead to this new year, my prayer is this:

Colossians 3:1-3

"Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God."
