Senior Year Update!

Hey all!

I know I have been semi-MIA lately and I apologize! I thought it was about time to update you all on my life, as crazy as it may seem!

So where do I start???

-Senior year has been going great, still coming to terms with my last year of high school! Crazy I know!
-I am doing pretty good in all of my classes, I do still come to a time where i dont want to do anything.... hello senioritis! haha :)
-I run and work out quite often lately-which is a big milestone for me! woohoo! :)
-I am loving my internship with my youth minister at church! Its fabulous! She has also been contracting and is officially having the baby soon, so i have been able to fill in for her as the "fill-in" youth minister! :)

-I have been accepted to Saint Mary's University in Winona :)



-I absolutely love St. Mary's and was able to stop back again to see it with students and it so peaceful! The staff, students and admissions people are sooo wonderful and nice! I can totally picture myself there, I am praying about it still but I feel it is the school for me :) :) I am so excited!
-Homecoming week was fantastic! I loved every min of it and had such a blast! :)

-I made Pop Group at school which is a group of singers who perform together :) I am so happy!
-Life has been good! A few stumbles along the way, but im getting through it, and should be starting counseling soon which is a good thing that i definately need.

Hope all is well with you all!

Class Of 2011

Hey All!! :)

So I have had things to blog about in the recent days, but its either finding the time or the creativity to write to make this appealing to you guys!! haha :)

I am 3 days away from my FINAL year of High School... Crazy I know right?!?! It feels like just yesterday that i was a little freshman, freaked out by the high school. And now i am ready to completely live it up and enjoy every min of my Senior year.

It is completely insane for me to look back on how I have grown in the past 4 years! I remember starting my freshman year and I was so nervous, completely freaked out, insecure, & God was definately not a major part of my life. I knew He was there, but that wasnt my life at all.

I am honestly proud of who I have become and glad that I have changed for the better. My life in previous years was focused around things that were not for the greater good, not good for me, my friends or my family. I am sooo grateful for wonderful people that have stuck by me and surrounded me in my life. They have truly made a difference in my life and I am so blessed! God has completely changed my focus onto Him and how to live out my calling. And even though I go through dry spots with Him, He is always there.

On Tuesday, the class of 2011 will be starting their Senior year, and I cannot wait to see what is ahead for all of us! :)

God Bless,
Ashley
