Trying Something New

Well here I am...in my final semester of college! It feels so strange to know that I am actually going to graduate in December. So I figured I would try something new for my last semester at A&M.  I am going to try and post a picture a day!  It sounds easy, but I already know that it will pose a challenge.  But I am excited to try! So this is day 1 and here is the pic of the day:






In this picture are a few of my favorite things! A cup of coffee; blueberry frappe, a game of tavoli in one of my favorite coffeshops - mugwalls, and of course my wonderful friend Brittani!   We are obsessed with playing this game!  It looks like a backgammon gameboard and I'm sure it is but the Greeks call it Tavoli!  I'm sure you are wondering how we learned to play this game?  Well you see, Brittani and I were part of  a summer project team that went to Greece for the first half of the summer!  We were there for 6 weeks and in the process we met Greek students, had coffee, shared with them the love of Christ and learned a lot about the Greek culture - which includes Tavoli :) I could share so much more about our experience in Greece but that should deserve a post all its own! 


Well there it is folks! My first picture of the semester...stay tuned for more :)

T-Shirt Fundraiser!

Hello Friends!


As many of you now know...I am going to Greece this summer!  I am so PUMPED to have this wonderful opportunity and in order to make this happen I need your help! So to help out with some of the costs (which is $5,650) I am selling T-shirts for $17! We have submitted the design and now I am just waiting to hear back from the company with a final design.

So I figured I would go on ahead and get a jump start on this process by taking orders and collecting money.  I have set up an account with paypal to make it super easy to collect orders and payments and if there is another option that might work better for you ...let me know!


This is a sketch up of the design that I am thinking and it will print on a light blue shirt. The blue stripes are going to be the same color as the shirt so basically all you will actually see are the white stripes with the overlapping art layer!  Once I get a final design I will post a new picture!  I am positive that they are going to look pretty sweet and so I encourage you to consider helping me out by buying one of these tees and inviting your friends to do the same :)
