christmas morning and nashville flashback

tonight was the annual Christmas dinner with CA's.

we dress in our P.J's, bring a gift, and eat breakfast food.....at night.

it was so fun.

i brought a starbucks giftcard, and left with one!

i had a jar of pickles at one point--note to self: the shape of a pickle jar looks a lot like a candle and a mug.  which is what i thought i would be getting!  fail.

but marcia traded with me.  it was so unnecessary of her. and i'm thankful.

no pics, but it was a blast.

it makes me remember that this time last year i was on my way back from nashville with my bestie.

who is now in chile....without me.

we visited jameson and lydia and ty had to do some stuff at vanderbilt.....so i toured the city with j-man.
so in memory of Nashville:

{so cool to be on that stage! me and j-man.  got asked if we were on a date.  funny.  he was my date to sophomore year homecoming!}

{best friends. the end}

{love us. ty, me, lyd}

{show at grand ole opry.  so surreal}

{main performer.  the Judd's were the night before}

{little vegas....or something to that effect}

{then we got stuck.in.traffic.  for house.  going 0 mph.  so we took pics.}

nashville, what a great city you are!

church was awesome this morning.

love that place with my whole heart.

and my student, melissa went too.  she wants to go back!  yay.

theory exam tomorrow.

i'm so nervous. anxiety through the roof.

praying for knowledge and understanding only He can give.
