Today is Justin and Lindsey's BIG DAY!  Two of my favorite people and greatest friends are getting married and I'm so excited for them!  Since I live thousands of miles away, and won't be able to attend...I decided to blog about it instead :)

Justin, I've known for most of my life (over half=most).  Lindsey, I had the privilege of meeting just over two years ago.  Justin, I met in my high school youth group, and I've been annoying him (and his family) ever since.  Lindsey, I met when she started working at the desk right beside me at West Park...little did we know how God planned to use us in each others lives.

I've had a front row seat to watch God do some great things in their lives both individually and as a couple...so I'm excited to see what's to come!

I love you both!  CONGRATULATIONS...and I'll see ya when you in TWO WEEKS :)

Well, my last entry to catch you all up on my holidays is a bit late.  I've had quite the crazy schedule the last week and haven't felt the greatest with some sinus junk, so FINALLY here you go!

For those who don't know, I spent about 8 months in Greece during 2003-2004 working with some programs scheduled during the Olympic Games in Athens.  Since leaving in May of 2004, I've only been able to go back once for a visit with my friends and "family."  It's been THREE YEARS now since I've set foot on Greek soil, so I decided to head there for New Year's...and had a blast.  I missed a lot over the years...so many of my friends are now married and I met a new baby or two :)

What a relaxing time to just chat with friends over coffee and delicious Greek food!  I may have been guilty of choosing New Years for my return because the Greeks eat this AWESOME bread called "vasilopita."  It's a sweet bread that only gets baked once a year...it was just as wonderful as I remembered.  I also enjoyed a wonderful Sunday at Nea Zoi and was surprised at how much of the language I actually remembered. 

The last half of my week was spent lending a hand with a retreat AMG was hosting on site at the Cosmovision Center.  Back in the kitchen cooking with all my friends...it was wonderful! 

I did take one morning break and head off to Athens for a bit of photography and shopping at the Plaka...check out the photos on my photo page :)
