Snapshot updates from Dallas...

Remember when I moved here and Heath was my only friend?  She went to NC for 3 weeks at the end of May.  I could not be more excited for her to come home tomorrow!  I have missed her SO MUCH and I really hope Ward still remembers "EE."

Sarah Mullins has taken on a new project at work, and is doing a trial in Senegal.  She took off for Africa last week, and is loving it so far.  We get to Skype sometimes, and I am so proud of her for the work she is doing and how she is loving on those people!

Emily Nance celebrated a birthday.  I hate to miss birthdays, yall know how I am.  This is my girl, and she deserves LOTS of celebration.  My favorite memory of Emily is when we traveled to Europe together one summer...I'm so lucky to call her a friend of mine!

A friend and colleague and neighbor of mine went home to be with Jesus.  Randy started his battle with cancer last August, and his battle ended this week.  My memories of him are fond.  His sweet wife and 7 month old baby girl will miss him, but I'm confident he left behind a story that his daughter will be proud to hear one day--she is going to be so proud of her Dad.

I adopted a little boy from Thailand named Ai this week!  I am so excited to be partnering with Compassion International and providing Ai with food, shelter, education, and knowledge about Jesus.  Now, I dream of the day when I get to visit Thailand and meet him one day. 

And lastly, I have two things to be looking forward to....Lindsey and Sarah have both planned trips to Texas!  I absolutely cannot wait to show my girls Dallas.  Counting down already...
