"Happy are people of integrity..."


"...who follow the law of the Lord...OH! That my actions would consistently reflect your principles. Then I will not be disgraced when I compare my life with your commands"
Psalms 119 1-8

The last year

Wow…looking back on the last year…a LOT has happened.

I rang in 2009 New Year in a hospital hooked up to an IV in London (things looked up from there)

I became an aunt

I made finals in Open Class at World Championships for winterguard

I directed another bronze medal award winning year of Berry College Independent Winterguard.

I went to Costa Rica and got love professed to me by a local Costa Rican boy, who still talks to me on facebook and asks when I am coming back to see him. “Ashton, you are different kind of girl, no? You are special”. haha! Guess it depends on how you interpret “different”.

I had some interesting relationships come and go

I began my last year in college

I auditioned for and made a World Class winterguard

Truly so much has happened. A lot I am not proud of and a lot that I am. But good or bad, 2009 definitely taught me some things….about myself, about others, and about the Lord. If I had a new years resolution (hate those by the way), it would be to grow closer the the Father. I have realized I am not as strong as I thought I was. I cant always do what is right. No matter how much I know I should…I succumb. I need Him to give me the strength to make the right decisions. Because as life as shown me, I am not capable of doing it alone.
