My Last Christmas....For a while.

No, I'm not depressed, and no, I'm not dying. It's just that I was spoiled beyond belief this year, with enough gifts to last a few Christmases. I'm thankful and awestruck simultaneously, which combined spells "awe-ful"........... I guess that's not an accurate description of how I feel. I guess "undeserving" is more accurate.

Here's a list of the highlights:

* iPod video from Mom
*3 pairs of jeans, a sweater, Visoneering book, from Amy
* iTrip from Matt
* Gift Certificate from Sis
* Car from the Barnetts
* New Tires for the car From Toadie
* Home entertainment system (DVD/Surround) from Strap.
* Sweet radio control Jeep from Jenny
* 3hp 21 gallon Air Compressor
3/8 air rachet
Air tool accessories
Goodyear Airhose
Tool Set- pliers, test light, allens, screwdrivers etc etc.
Nose hair trimmer
One million candle power Coleman Spotlight
new undershirts/socks
-All from the Van Dycks
(I felt weird after opening all the aformentioned gifts because it was like, I hope you enjoy your CD I got ya!)
* I got to see almost all my family in Iowa, Arkansas, and the Van Dycks plus David and the Cottle Clan.

I'm not trying to brag, but wanted you to get an idea of the spoil-age. Anywho, I'm thankful to the givers and to Jesus who saw fit for me to have some cool stuff. It was a pretty rad Holiday after a long semester at Seminole.

Bidi Bidi Bom Bom


We're finally here, and after much traveling and relatives, we landed last night in the city of Corpus Christi, hometown to the slain Tejano music sensation, SELENA.

We've also been in ye olde Buick for about a week. But we did learn ten verses by just riding in the Max-mobile. We went from Norman to Bella Vista Arkansas, then to Des Moines Iowa for 2 days, back to Arkansas for 2 days. We opened presents with my family thursday night. Then we drove back to Norman on Friday, picked up Jenny and Buki, then headed for the sea. We stopped in San Antonio and had dinner with the Cottle fam. We then drove on to Corpus while watching "Can't Hardly Wait" on my laptop, arriving at 11:30 pm. Wow, it was a long day.

Amy's mom has about 974 presents under the huge tree, (little full, lotta sap) Anyway, the hugest present has my name on it, not sure how we're going to get it home. It's so big that 4 oompa loompas could be living inside.

Whelp, see ya later.

Name That Tune, Original Artist Please...

I believe in God the Father
Almighty Maker of Heaven and Maker of Earth
And in Jesus Christ His only begotten Son, our Lord
He was conceived by the Holy Spirit
Born of the virgin Mary
Suffered under Pontius Pilate
He was crucified and dead and buried

And I believe what I believe is what makes me what I am
I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God and not the invention of any man

I believe that He who suffered was crucified, buried, and dead
He descended into hell and on the third day, rose again
He ascended into Heaven where He sits at God's mighty right hand
I believe that He's returning
To judge the quick and the dead of the sons of men

And I believe what I believe is what makes me what I am
I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God and not the invention of any man

I believe it, I believe it
I believe it
I believe it, I believe it

I believe in God the Father
Almighty Maker of Heaven and Maker of Earth
And in Jesus Christ His only begotten Son, our Lord
I believe in the Holy Spirit
One Holy Church
The communion of Saints
The forgiveness of sin
I believe in the resurrection
I believe in a life that never ends

And I believe what I believe is what makes me what I am
I did not make it, no it is making me
I did not make it, no it is making me
I said I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God and not the invention of any man

I believe it, I believe
I believe it, I believe

Dave, your date's here..
