I have no idea what awaits me, but I know that the next chapter of my life will happen amidst the backdrop of Dallas, Texas. I have everything I need...friends that spur me on, a family that loves me, and a God that has a plan for me. Everything else is up to chance.

Everything is Bigger in Texas
Yes, women really do have big hair in Texas.
Yes, men really do have wear cowboys hats everywhere in Texas.
And Yes, God is unbelievably BIG in this place!
If God=Everything.......Then "Everything"=Bigger in Texas
Here's the deal...
If there had been no "Heath and Emily are best friends," then chances are, I probably wouldn't have moved to Dallas. But in order to make that happen, there had to be a small town named Burlington. And in order to get us to Burlington, my parents had to go to Elon and settle down in that small town. And Heath's parents had to move from Charlotte and start their family in that same small town. And there had to be a Turrentine Middle School cheerleading squad for Heath and I to find as our first common ground. And thank goodness that there was a dance studio named Walkerdance where years of our friendship would flourish. And I had to have an older brother that was the same age as Heath. And Anna Gayle had to come to Williams High School everyday and invite Heath and I to YL Camp in Colorado. And there had to be a Williams High School Cheerleading squad where Heath and I would spend countless hours together cheering for our boys. And there had to be a Scott Beasley that would sweep Heath off her feet and marry her and move her to Dallas, TX.
....You see, the story is intricate. The story has lots more details than the ones mentioned above. The story started a long time ago. This was God's plan all along. It is not a coincidence. The idea of "Heath and Emily being best friends" was created long before we ever met. We are living out an incredible story that was written for us. And, today, I'm in Dallas because of it, and I absolutely LOVE this chapter of my story.
So yeah, I'd agree, "Everything" is bigger in Texas.
