Traveling to Nashville for work, a long weekend in Texas to meet Brad’s family…I have hardly spent anytime in Knoxville so far this year. But, here are the Top 10 Things I have learned so far in 2010.
1. I am blessed. There are so many people around the world who don’t have anyone to turn to. They don’t have any family. I already have a great one. Now, all of a sudden, I have dozens more wonderful people in my life – Brad’s family!
2. When you visit Texas you must:
(a) Eat Tex-Mex food at least once per day.
(b) put guacamole in everything – even if it is not Tex-Mex.
(c) shop for boots
(d) visit a “Honky Tonk” which includes a loud band, 37% of people wearing hats, and an enormous area where people randomly place their very large trucks in no particular order (this is called a “parking lot” in Texas)
3. When you are visiting people, soap makes a great hostess gift.
4. Going to the Bridal Fair is a good idea, as long as you don’t let it overwhelm you. However, going to the Bridal fair while the Vols are down 4 players but still beat the #1 team in the nation is not a good idea.
5. When you football coach resigns, it will totally change you prayer requests at Bible study.
6. When there is a earthquake devastating our hemisphere, it’s an even bigger deal than you football coach resigning.
7. Skunks will eat your cat food.
8. Opryland is the best convention center.
9. I don’t understand how the Lord works in tragedies like what is facing Haiti. But I know that in my little corner of the world, he used Rice Bowls to connect a new church with a small orphanage. A few months ago, this connection moved them to a new facility and no doubt saved 15 lives.
10. Asking your friends to be your Bridesmaids and Junior Bridesmaids is one of the most exciting parts of being engaged!
