The new chapter in my life has begun.
It's odd how when you make a decision about what direction to take your life God suddenly does something that you can't quite figure out. God has brought a lot of people back into my life in the last couple weeks. But mostly all of them showed up this week! So I've decided to post pictures.
A couple weeks ago my friend Russ looked me up online and we began to catch up after a year of not talking. He is into computer graphics and animation like I am. We met online and met for the first time in Pasadena. He's probably one of the first people I've met completely outside of my area that ended up being a good friend.

I caught up with my friend Joe online who's bday was Monday 9/27/04 (Happy Birthday Joe!). He was going to be working by the Ontario Airport so we decided to meet for lunch. He and I haven't hung out since a friends Halloween party like two years ago.

My long lost friend Andie called me to wish me a happy belated birthday! She, Rachel and I are getting together this weekend at my place and it will be the first time all "Three Muskateers" have gotten together since Andie's wedding if I remember correctly! :) I'm really looking forward to it!

Then last night I was woken up at 12:28am with a call from Johnny one my old youth kids who is now too old for youth group. He was going through a really hard time and wanted prayer and someone to talk to.

Then of course you have my ex who I haven't been seeing since June of 2002. He calls every once-in-a-while and we touch base with how he's feeling. Well we haven't talked in a while and then he called me last week too.

So there you have it. Oh and all my friends with babies!
My good friend Matt Bodell, who got married 10/19/02
just had a baby girl 9/21/04!
My friend Mel got married 7/05/03
And had a baby girl in June of 04 (I don't know the exact date)
My friend Diane just had a baby girl. I don't have any pictures of her other then one with me and her.
My friend David at work just had a little girl too. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of the baby yet.
My friend Brian and his wife are expecting a little boy and wanting to name him Dominic. I don't have any recent pics of the family. I'm planning on going to the baby shower next Saturday if I remember to RSVP.
I'm sure there's more but this is plenty for now. :) So it's been kind of fun to see where everyone was and is in just two years. I mean pretty much I lost contact with most of my friends about two years ago. All my friends that married about 2 years ago are now having babies. It's crazy!
Well I'm gonna go clean my bathroom... I think. Either that or go to bed. But either way I have to get going.
Goodnight
