As I sit here, writing my annual Christmas letter to put in my Christmas cards, I am amazed at all that has been accomplished/experienced this year…and, I am amazed at all that will take place next year!

2004:

* Being in TIME Magazine

* Visiting the Reagan Ranch

* Traveling to Chicago twice

* Moving four times (I hate moving!!!)

* Spending a weekend in Yosemite for my family reunion

* Completing two more semesters

* Probably 100 hours in youth ministry (yay for youth!)

* Writing well over 200 pages for school

* Working on the Bush Campaign

* Seeing God work in amazing ways…

And much more…

2005:

* Possibly going to the Presidential Inauguration

* Going to Kentucky for my brother’s Basic Training Graduation

* My own graduation

* Moving again…

* Tunisia!

* Two weeks of youth camp (one of those I am helping to create)

* Continuing work in my church…

* Beginning life in the “real world”

* Having so many options open to me for my future

* Seeing God work in even more amazing ways…

And so much more…

I am SO glad that finals are over…that I only have one semester left of school…that I get to learn Arabic soon…etc.

It’s been quite a year, and I can’t wait to see what 2005 brings!
