Above all else, guard your heart...

Above all else, guard your heart- for it is the wellspring of life. (Proverbs 4.23)

Champs, Travel, & Christmas

I thought today was perfect to do something a little different here on the blog. Typically, I focus on the spiritual side of my life, what we're digging into at Stretch, Cross Point, or within my own personal one on one time with the Lord.

Those things are great, and trust me, you may get way more out of those posts than this one. But today, I feel like I just need to share my excitement with you all.

Lately, life has been good. And the next two months are looking at being just as great. So I thought today I would selfishly use my blog to share my excitement!





First -
on October 29, 2010 my Ravenwood Raptor Volleyball girls won the Tennessee Division 1 AAA State Championship! This is highest, biggest division in the state, and still, one week later, I cannot believe we did it! I am so unbelievably proud of them and honored to be on the coaching staff. Proud of you girls!!!

Not much can top that, but we'll see how these next two months pan out.

This weekend marks the beginning of the new volleyball club here in Nashville, Club West Nashville. Club West is a volleyball namesake in California, known for having some of the best training and volleyball players in the country. The great news? One of my best friends in the volleyball world is the one planting it here! I'm on staff as the 12U National coach. Twelve year olds! I cannot wait to teach and share my love for the game with the youngest players we have. What an opportunity!

Next weekend I will be traveling with some of my best friends to the beautiful Smoky Mountains for a mini-vacation. So many of us have had hectic schedules this fall, and it just couldn't come at a better time! Seriously cannot wait to spend 4 days in the woods with these people. What a blessing it is to have great people in my life!

The next weekend after that, my best friend from home is flying in for her week long vacation and we're heading to Cocoa Beach and Orlando, Florida for Thanksgiving. My high school volleyball coaches live there now and lucky for me, it's only a half day's drive! Sun, Disney, volleyball, and Thanksgiving with my second family. Perfect!

Christmas in New Hampshire! Then, of course, it's time for walking in winter wonderlands, sleigh bells, and roasting [marshmallows] on an open fire. Yes, I'll be dreaming of a white Christmas and I'll get it! Because I'll be home for Christmas!

Oh, and in between it all, I'll be seeing shows such as Needtobreathe, Dave Barnes, Tyler Hilton, Brooke Frasier.

Again, I think this year's end is looking pretty.
[Minus the certification tests, and grad school finals staring me in the face. But we're not thinking about that today! ;) ]
