You've turned my mourning into dancing!

About Me

God loves you so much!

He knows you personally and wants you to know Him and love Him too.

I'm a born-again Christian.


"Pray as if it all depends on God, and live as if it all depends on you."
I'm a work in progress.
I'm learning what it means to let Christ lead.
And I'm dancing my way through life.

It's got Brit and Mark, John and I, and some awesome SoCal dancers.
Obscure places I have danced: Alcatraz, Sunset Drive-in (SLO), the top of Madonna mtn (SLO), two driveways, on a boat, outside Uptown Espresso(SLO), on the sidewalk outside Twiropa (New Orleans), in a tree (Mark's tree fort), communal showers at the campground where Wildflower was held, the parking lot in front of a metal band, in the middle of Grand Ave at 2am, and on the top of "the P" hill (SLO), the parking lot outside Denny's in SLO.
The CP Swing boys' open house routine.
This made me laugh:
"So that is what the Benjamites did. While the girls were dancing, each man caught one and carried her off to be his wife." --Judges 21:23
