I'm all over the place!

It’s week  3 and I’m sittin’ in the airport.  It’s strange thinking I’ve been in America for 3 weeks already.  So far, so good!  I am now ending my week of spending time with my family up in a cabin near Gatlinburg, TN for Christmas.  God blessed me with the perfect Christmas!  I woke up Christmas morning to the brisk dry air of the mountains and the white snow on the ground…….my first White Christmas EVER!  The only year I didn’t spend all year asking God for a white Christmas, I get one.  Guess I’ve figured out the trick, hey?

After a week of ups and downs (as it happens with living with ALL your family for a whole week J), I had the chance to ride back to Michigan with my brother and sister-in-law.  After the interesting start of having my niece projectile vomit on me (my fault…..I placed the bucket in the wrong place), the trip turned into a great time of decompressing and hanging with my bro, sis, and nieces. 

As I’m writing this on my way home, I’m getting myself ready for another week of travel.  First, to Charlotte I go!, then to Virginia.  I figured, since I’m up in Virginia, I might as well go to Baltimore for the heck of it, right?  Then, back down I go!  Home, to Raleigh. 

4 more weeks to go before heading back to the land of heat (it’s summer time in Australia).  I’m loving meeting with as many people as I can.  I’ve had the chance to tell people how their prayers/money has effected the nations!  If you’re reading this and thinking “boy, I sure wish I could hang out with that awesome girl, who is Kellie”…… it’s not too late.  My number while here is 919-500-1596.  Give me buzz and we’ll try to get together.  I love talking……. I mean, what I meant to say was I love talking with people J 

There are 2 ways you can pray for me:

            1-That I will be able to meet with all the people I need to meet with

2-I’m trying to find 30 people to support me $30 a month.  So far, I’m at  14% of that goal right now.  

You can't have Thanksgiving dinner without
at least 5 pumpkin pies, right?

One of the biggest blessings this year was having my
sister visit me in Australia for Thanksgiving;
I took here to the beach

We acted out the the first Thanksgiving; I was
a pilgrim starving to death

My crazy family

Snowball fight

My wonderful nephew decided to add "conditioner" to my
 hair as a "thank you" for carrying him

For fun, my family decided to play some games;
here, we're trying to shoot cans off of a table
(though you think we were at war)

This has become one of my favorite picks.  I looked out the window
of my parents' house and saw this.  This is what I call
determination

Some people just don't understand the beauty of tacky lights

FINALLY, after 33 years, I had my first White Christmas
Merry Christmas everyone!!!
