i realized i haven’t posted anything in 2007!  so that must happen right now.  the first 2 weeks of the year have been great so far.  i took a trip to gatlinburg with lots of friends from work.  it was a blast.  we were supposed to ski, but that’s rather difficult in 60 degree weather.  here’s a lovely picture of me, lauren and jensi.  i might post a couple more when jensi sends me hers:

and one more…because it wouldn’t properly describe the trip if i didn’t mention jamie’s lethal cherries.  here’s a shot of everyone eating one:

 i also went to carabba’s to celebrate my friend, christi’s, birthday.  it was a fun time hanging out with the girls.  they bring you a mac daddy dessert for your birthday too…and i’m pretty sure it was free which made it even better.  here’s a pic of us eating our dessert:

moving on to other events…last week we had another official meeting for the launch of life church of tennessee.  everything is going well so far.  it’s been amazing how obviously God has worked details into place…especially when i was wondering how the heck it was all going to happen!  william and laura louise are tons of fun, and i love hanging out with them.  here’s a picture of the most precious, newest addition to their family (william III a.k.a. wills.)  hello cutie pie!!…

and most recently….a fun time was had by all at a going away party for my friend, michael, at work.  it was great, b/c so many ted’s peeps showed up at the blue bar for this.  it was kinda crazy that we filled up a whole room.  michael is moving back home to atlanta.  here’s a pic with me, him and cynthia:
