The Thirties

I just had my last birthday in my 30's the other day. It allowed me to reflect on the last decade of my life, and wonder what the next year might bring. In my 30's, I:
  • Went to seminary
  • Graduated from seminary
  • Met, fell in love with, and married my lovely wife
  • Started a career in full-time youth ministry
  • Moved west of the Mississippi River
  • Bought a house
  • Got a dog
  • Had the two most awesome children in the whole, entire world
It's been a great decade! The 40's will be hard-pressed to beat it...but I still have a whole year before I have to think about that.
