That's awesome about the site's history - thank you SO much for sharing.
You have been such a rock to me over the past few months - tell me a little about your journey as a Christian - when you gave your life over to Him and how that transformation came about (if its too personal - feel free to take a pass)
awww thank you krissy... God is good, isnt He?
Not to personal! I LOVE sharing about God in my life and I could go on and on about the blessings I have been given
As far back as I can remember... my dad would talk about Jesus with me, take me to church and those wonderful things. He would ask me... "did you talk to Jesus today?" or "do you have Jesus in your heart?"
I think I got the hunger for a walk with God as a little kid as a result:) Im so glad I did too. I guess, Jesus and God have always been a part of my life that way.
I think i was about 11 or 12 when I made the conscience decision and gave my life to God and accept Jesus as my personal Savior, when I felt I really understood what it was about and that I needed to and wanted to do it.
Im not sure how the transformation came about, I just know I was always hearing about the Word and knew God was the answer to happiness.
God pulled me thru alot as a kid and growin up and I know He is pulling me now. Other wise, i dont think I would have made it this far :)

I have tears reading this....I love you Miss Wendi :
I love that your Dad asked you those questions....I use to ask Dwayne those very same questions all the time then once he got to be around 16, I would ask him...."Are you still saying your prayers" " Do you have Jesus in your heart".

Definitely camping! We would spend most of our summers, camping on the lake and places like that :) I wish Will liked to camp
Another would be Christmases at my precious Grammas house, with ALL my dads family there... eating home made chili, nachos or something yummy and just being together.

Thank you for sharing my love! I am having so much fun reading about you!!!
If money and training were no object where would you live (your dream home and location), what kind of work would you do, what kind of car would be in your driveway.

I would be a kindergarten teacher again or working with children somehow. I miss it
I would live somewhere coastal in a pretty log house (nothing huge since it does have to be cleaned) with lots of windows :)
I would still drive my pretty red tahoe... I ruv that thing

Wendi, my friend...If you could change one thing about your appearance, what would it be...(if anything)...
Also, have you ever been told you look like someone famous and if yes, who??

I would have a tanner complexion
I have always been told (especially when I had real curly hair) that I look like Nichole Kidman... and recently, I heard Katherine Heigl a couple times... not sure how that one comes about.

Thanks for asking! I was beginning to think I was just boring
Right now I have Natasha Bedingfield in my car. Im usually a radio girl but
everything is in that played out mode with me.
On my iPod, my most played playlist is my "easy scrap-type list" that I have.
Its an adult contemporary/easy listening/soft rock/70s and 80s mix I LOVE!
