It's Starting to Look a Lot Like Christmas


Hey World,
So, I have been an absolutely terrible blogger and have neglected posting for quite some time. It's not completely my fault though...my internet mysteriously disappeared one day and never came back.
It's been a grand old time here in Florida and I have been continuing to learn a ton, growing closer to God, and  makeing lots of friendships. For Thanksgiving I had the opportunity to go to Northport to Amanda's (my roommate) friend's house, and we spent the day eating lots of food and running around on the beach.
Here's proof:
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!


Moriah, Amanda, and I relaxing on the beach.


We had lots of fun.



It was definitely different not being home for Thanksgiving, but I guess that's what happens when you grow up and move to new places.
I find the thought of Christmas in Florida rather humorous. There are Christmas decorations everywhere, and my neighbors like most of the Orlando population have a yard filled with Christmas lights. The thing I find so funny about all of this is that it's been in the 70's (expect for today, which doesn't count). I look at the Christmas decor and laugh, because I feel as if Christmas is very far away and that it really isn't time to be singing Christmas songs yet. However, Christmas is approaching...I mean it is December. I believe for the first time in my life I'll be very grateful if it snows bucketloads while I'm home visiting my  family for Christmas.
