I am in love, in love with an experience I had a year and a half ago. For the amount of time I talk about it most people can guess it was my trip to Colorado. This past weekend was a chance for me to see many people who experienced Colorado with me. For most of the people I saw this weekend it was the first time since I left to board my plane on August 10, 2012. I drove to Knoxville, Tennessee this past Friday to see Drew and Ellie Holcomb, a band that has such a special place in my heart. Not to mention the tickets were front row. I arrived in Knoxville in plans of meeting Aaron and other friends from Colorado at Chipotle. I turned the corner to see Aaron standing at the door and walked to me with open arms. Knoxville was so pretty and I can finally mark that on my map of the places that I have been.
Saturday consisted of Asheville, which is always an adventure with some of my hall mates. We experienced local restaurants, coffee shops in a double decker bus and mast general store with barrels and barrels of candy.
On the side note of my weekend....i have a tattoo now along with a nose ring which is something i never would have thought i would have the courage to get done, let alone the tattoo being...permanent. but in all honesty i love it despite what anyone might say about my decision. my tattoo is of a cross which is something i have wanted for a long time. it is small and simple but the story behind it is something bigger than anything in this world, that Jesus took something, my sin and hung on the cross to save me, a small simple part of this world that I would live for him and know that I AM SAVED, BECAUSE OF HIM.
