i cannot believe how quickly 2 weeks just flew by.

i'm a killen. and if you know killens, we are never late for anything. as a matter of fact - we're probably going to be early anywhere. well, ken killen is the master of being early. and i'm sitting in the montgomery airport at my terminal (which is not open yet) 2 hours before my flight. but i'm here. :) i have never seen this many people here. i'm not sure that the montgomery regional airport has ever seen this many people here. everyone is dressed from head to toe in auburn gear and they're just so happy. all going to spend a wonderful weekend with their friends and family, supporting those AU Tigers. :) while here i am - leaving my family and friends all teary-eyed and sad. saying bye always stinks - now i need to think about the next 7 months and how God is going to work in my life and continue to mold me. also i keep thinking about my kiddies and how excited they are going to be to tell me about their vacations! gotta think positive.

so, "happy cam newton day - yawl"

christmas break was so so sooo great.
i really think i have the most amazing, thoughtful, generous, dependable, loving, faithful, FUN group of friends & family that anyone could ever ask for.

my family made sure that i had everything that i needed before i left. they did stupid errands with me and sweet lil' erin put up with "hey erin, can i use your phone real quick to call ___?" or "hey erin, can i use your phone real quick to text ___?" and even "hey erin, can i take your car?" she put up with that for 2 weeks. she's a trooper. and mom made sure we had chocolate brownies when we FINALLY could eat chocolate again. we had a girl's spend the night party at mom's one night and i don't think i've ever laughed so much in my life. dad & kay took us out to dinner and cooked dinner numerous times. you won't ever go hungry on ken and kay killen's watch - that's for sure. my brother and sheena put up with bear & sophie in the car from greenville so i could see those presh lil' things at christmas. basically, my family is real great.

it's so nice to come home to friends who have been anticipating your arrival for a while. this trip consisted of so.much.laughing. and EATING. and shopping. and getting/giving advice. talking about future plans. spending quality time together. i'm pretty sure i spent every waking moment either with jayme wright or talking to her. i think we kept starbucks in business. she's probably going to need a vacation from the past 2 weeks. also sweet friends made sacrifices to see me while i was home like haden & halie. :) katey cooked us delicious macaroni and cheese lasagna and opened her home to us whenever we wanted to hang! tasharia, well she's just amazing. courtney just saved me in the montgomery airport - i just needed her hug to comfort me while i was super sad at leaving my dad & sister in the airport. last night was fun filled at buffalo wild wings as jayme, katey, josh, fuller, my lil seester, halie and jon all got together for one last hoorahhhh. i don't know what else i could say about my lovely friends.

friends & family.
i'm blessed.
