My New Family

One of my all time favorite things about the Honor Academy is the fact that we are not only placed in a core with sisters, but we are also given a brother core.  This semester I was blessed, once again, to have not only a brother core but a second sister core.  This means we have a BIG family!  We spent our Saturday spending time with each other and getting to know one another as brothers and sisters.  I am completely blown away by these incredible young men and women that God has placed me with this semester.  I honestly could not have asked for a better group of people to have as my family.  We all get along so well and genuinely love to spend time together as if we truly were family.  We spent the day in water/ paint fights, pizza eating contests, movie watching, and story telling just sharing those little moments and memories that will last a life time.   

Mountain LTE

A week ago today I concurred Hallots Peak in Colorado!  I had the awesome opportunity to hike a 12,000ft+ mountain with a group of people that I love and cherish.  As many of you know I am a January intern here at the Honor Academy, but what you may not have known is that I am 1 of about 30 January interns.  We are a very small but close class and we had the family vacation of our lives!  We drove about 18 hours from East Texas to Colorado and spent two nights in the mountains.  In that time we had fellowship, worship, elk burgers, ice cream, and a lot of fun.  Things on campus have been rather hectic so the idea of going on the first ever January only Mountain LTE was an amazing vacation for many of us (at least it was for me).  Throughout the weekend I was able to build closer relationships with most of the Januaries that went with me.  I am so very blessed to have spent the past 8 months with these amazing men and women whom I consider to be my brothers and sisters.
