so i decided that it was time to move on from my lj. yessirreee... so here we are. i just got home from a fabulous weekend at the RESOLVED conference in pasadena. john macarthur, steve lawson, rick holland and cj mahaney were the speakers. talk about intense... they're adding john piper next year!! i can't wait! i'm so thankful that i was able to attend this one. i was all set to attend last year's but my beloved grandpa passed away the weekend right before, so i ended up not being able to go.

if you haven't checked it out already, look at my PICTURES!! i love that site! you should get an account with them, too! it's so easy, and it's so much fun! haha... i should get paid. y'all think i'm crazy, huh?


and this picture --> is the front of an exhibit that's called "ashes and snow." i went to see it today after trying to go with a teacher friend yesterday (but it was closed for mlk day). it's an exhibit that's housed in a "nomadic museum" created out of steel cargo containers in the santa monica pier parking lot. the exhibit features photos and films of people interacting with animals... very zen. it's definitely something unique that you should see.

happy 2006 - take all of this year's trials and blessings with graciousness... and enjoy the life God has given you to live! to God be the glory!!!
