My roommate's birthday is just around the clock and I could not be more excited. What a funny and gracious thing, to take a day to celebrate the life of another human being. Birthday's are one of those sacred things in life that make us feel significant and valued. They are a chance for friends and family (and due to the introduction of Facebook even acquaintances or strangers) to take one full day and acknowledge and celebrate your life and value. We should do this more, ya know? We should celebrate others, celebrate their lives and their existence. Once a year we are reminded that we are alive, that we were born and that that is significant.
So in honor of this birthday we are taking an exciting trip. We are headed to my sweet East Coast. Tomorrow morning we are flying out to Atlanta to stay with my sister and Trey and from there we will head to South Carolina to the Clemson game in hopes the Tigers can turn things around for Melanie's birthday and my pride. It is going to be so fun. Melanie has never seen a Clemson game and she has never seen a true Fall season. We will tailgate, tour Atlanta, eat good food, play with dogs, and walk around the campus that I love so much and haven't seen in two years.
Here's to celebrating the life of another!

About Me
- A.J.
- "He was in the world, and the world was made through Him and the world did not know Him. He came to His own, and they did not receive Him. But as many as received Him, to them he gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name, who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God. And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us." John 1:9-14
