  • Friends are friends (with apologies to Michael W. Smith)

    June 29, 2008

    One of the cool things about blogging is that you make new friends that you otherwise would have never met in real life.

    And then, when you get to meet those friends in real life, it’s so much fun.

    At Deeper Still this weekend I was finally able to meet Amanda and Janelle.

    You know what?

    They’re even better in person.

    I’ll be back tomorrow after I’ve figured out how to condense about 15,000 thoughts into one concise blog post.

    Or maybe five concise blog posts.

    In the meantime, you can read about it on the All-Access blog.

      I’m so jealous! I’ve been thinking about this event all weekend and kicking myself for not getting tickets. ( I live in Atlanta) BUT, it’s these posts and pictures that just make me giddy about San Antonio.

      You four look absolutely beautiful!

      Looking forward to reading your 15,000 thoughts! Every last one of them…

      blessings,

      Your so lucky!
      I had floor seats the first night, but we were in the “you’re trying to win a prize” section yesterday. Not bad, but I would have loved to have been where you were!!

      Hi, Melanie, it was so nice to meet you on Friday night. I spotted you and Sophie right away (me and Sophie go to the same church, but don’t really know each other) I’ve been reading your blog off & own and follow you and Sophie around wherever you are. So fun to read your recaps on the event. Wasn’t it just awesome?! There are hardly words to describe how God moved on that place & I’m SO glad I was a part of it. I hope they do this every single year. I went to Nashville last year, so knew what to expect, but it blew me away once again.

      Come by & see me sometime!

      What a beautiful picture of you four ladies!

      This picture makes me even more excited for San Antonio! I am looking forward to hugging ALL your necks.

      Friday was my blogoversary and I can’t believe that I have been at this for a year now. I have “met” so many wonderful people through it.

      And you are one of my favorites!

      Blessings to you!
