Since starting this blog I've moved from Thailand, to Indianapolis now to Chicago. You'll never know the road that the Lord will take you on, and this is a glimpse of mine.

Beach Video
This is a video from my trip over break, a little late -- but it is always fun to see pictures with music, right? I have learned that people just like to look at pictures and not read anyway, so enjoy.

Hey, Sara! You put together a fabulous video with slides and writing too! I am always inspired by your creativity!
