I am thankful for: SWEATPANTS
Stole this from a friend. Forgive me Keisha.
For the remaining days of November, every day, I will write something I am thankful for.
Today..I am thankful for sweatpants.
I bought 2 new pairs last night and I'm in love! I love when I don't have to dress up and I can feel cozy all day. :)

Family
The other day I was sitting around just thinking about my family and how blessed I am to have them.
Here's why:
My mom - She is my ROCK. My best friend and a wonderful example. I am so very thankful God blessed me with her. Truly an inspiration.
My dad - Someone I can count on. Works hard to support his family and loves me unconditionally. Very blessed as well.
My brother - The coolest guy you will ever meet or at least he thinks he is. :) He is a good example and is better than me in so many ways.
My grandpas - Two of the most wonderful men you will ever meet. They love their grandchildren like crazy and are always there for us.
My Uncles - Some of the craziest men. I am actually afraid to bring my future husband home to meet them one day. Not because they will be hounding him with questions (that's my dad's job) but because they are pretty weird. In a nice way of course. My boyfriend might now want me after meeting them. Only kidding. :)
My Aunts - All very different from eachother but in the same way similar. They will stand their ground for their family and won't take smack from anyone.
My Cousins - They are all completely different from eachother, but from each one of them I have a trust source and I know in most cases I can count on them.
I am so blessed! God is good.

GWL!
So, my Fall Break went more fabulous than I had originally planned.
I ended up getting to go to Great Wolf Lodge in Grapevine, TX for FREE!
If you have ever been too or looked at going to Great Wolf Lodge, you know how expensive that place is and to be able to go for is amazing!
The reason I got to go is because of a lovely lady from my church who recieved free 8 tickets from her nephew who recieved them from teh CEO of Great Wolf Lodge. You may be wondering how he got to even meet the CEO, well let me tell you.
If any of you have watched Undercover Boss on CBS, you know what I am talking about. About a month ago Great Wolf Lodge was featured on Undercover Boss. (For those of you who haven't watched it, the shows plot is pretty cool. A CEO of a certain company goes to the companies sites and pretends to be just a regular employee. At the end they introduce themselves to the employees they worked side by side with during the show at the CEO.) Well my friend from high school works at Great Wolf Lodge and is the aquatic supervisor there. He was on the show (which is a pretty big deal for Ryan, OK) and at the end of the show the CEO actually told him that she would be paying for his flight school and he would get 8 free passes for his family for the park. Guess who got one of those passes? Muah. :)
It was an amazing time with amazing people and it was good to catch up with an old friend.
On another note, sitting in church tonight the first song we sang hit me pretty hard. I need to apply it to myself. "Let The Beauty of Jesus Be Seen In Me"
In Him,
Cherish

Oh, Fall Break.
"You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature; rather, serve one another in love." -Galatians 5:13
I used this verse today in a speech I gave for my Speech class. This verse says a lot to me. I am constantly struggling to improve my relationship with God. I have my highs and my lows, or as my mom would say my highs are when I'm "high on God". I have come to realize the only times that I am truly "high on God". These times are when I am at or have just come from Camp Lu-Jo or when I am hanging out with my Christian friends. These are the times when I am truly happy with who I am. I am constantly wanting to improve my relationship with God, which is definitely not a bad thing, but this verse is also telling me I need to serve others by helping them get closer with God. That's just thing, how do you bring up God in a casual conversation? If you got the answer, comment on this post.
So, it's Fall Break and I am going to not only use this time to work on school work and catch up with sleep but also to try to improve my relationship with God.
Won't you join me?
In Him,
Cherish

Question
Is it possible to ever have a "perfect" relationship with God?
This may be a stupid question but it just popped in my head this morning at church and it's just one of those that I can't answer for myself.
Isaiah 53:6
In Him,
Cherish
