The Barlow Bunch!!

In the past our family has "sometimes" gotten out a Christmas picture and card relatively around Christmas or New Years...but I ALWAYS envied the families who had enough time to put together a Christmas letter...no matter how many times I would try to write one or get my parents to it NEVER seemed to happen...until somehow a miracle happened in our midst... more like... just rallying the whole family together to get this thing out instead of just one person! We thought...we are all on the computer most of the time anyways...so what better way for a Christmas/New Years letter than a website!! Thankfully my brother works for the INCREDIBLE company showit... that gives you a sweet tool, showit sites, to build these things so easily!! Soooo now...better late than never..I introduce....The Barlow Bunch!!!! ""CLICK HERE"" for more information on my family than you probably ever want to know! ;)
I love you all!!!

Hugging my computer.

Noooo I'm not THAT in love with it...yet at least...lol!
Technology is just THE best these days...whenever I need a family fix I just pop onto Skype and there they all are! It's pretty much the best invention since...well since Al Gore invented the internet! ;)
Tonight I got webcam hugs and kisses which will just have to do until Thanksgiving when they alllll come down here to my place to stay! :) Yep...the first night they will all be in my apt.. but of course it will be a BLAST!
Oli asked me tonight if I can move back home after thanksgiving! And Jules thinks I live at the airport! Classic!
To be honest...I do REALLY miss my family...but....being down here is one of the most incredible things for me ever! I have really grown so much just even in the past couple weeks I feel...just in my relationship with God, knowing who I am more, and taking care of everyday things that my parents would always do! It's one of the most amazing feelings ever!
A lot of people ask if I get lonely especially living on my own and if the transition was sad...strangely enough NO!! I really have been so all encompassed with traveling, business, time with God, and getting established down here that I haven't had the time to be lonely or sad about leaving! God really has His grace on this I'm sure..because I definitely thought after two weeks I would call home and say..okkkk I'm ready to come back! But nope! I know this is EXACTLY where I am supposed to be right now and this is the only place I'm going to thrive to my full potential right now! I'm excited to see what the future brings!!! I love you all!!!
Just thought you might like an actual personal note rather than just pics all the time:)
