i am getting a new car this week! it will be so nice to not drive the charger anymore. my 2006 honda accord is getting here tuesday or wednesday. if you are wondering why i am getting a new car, refer to my nov. 4 post :)

after watching this video i thought about what i asked for, for christmas and what i intend on giving people for christmas. were my gifts going to push people towards Jesus? is what i am asking for going to push me towards Jesus or towards the goals of looking good, having fun stuff, and making myself have more than my neighbor. after typing that it sounds really judgmental towards people who are asking for clothes and electronics and jewelry etc. but, that is not my heart in it. my heart is that those things as much as i hate to admit it can draw my attention away from Jesus and on myself and comparing myself to the people around me. so what if i gave of myself relationally and only asked the same of other people? would they be drawn more to Christ through the experience? would i? i would hope so. so, this is all just me thinking out loud. well, not out loud, but on paper. well, not on paper, but on the internet.

highlights of my saturday and sunday...
*veronica mars. she is so kick ass and i want to be as smart as her. who killed lily kane? i am dying to know.
*sleeping in until 11 am. thank you advil pm. love, erin
*1 corinthians 4. how often i choose to run the race looking forward to the prizes the world entices me with rather than Jesus. pcpc and tim tinsley reminded me of that.
*anthropologie holiday. it is oh so wonderful. i bought many christmas presents and only spent $33.
*glorias and cafe brazil. i am always up for some black bean dip, fajitas, and smore hot chocolate.
*spending some good, quality time with my roommate alisa and hanging with other friends this weekend.
*colts defeating the chargers at the last minute. i love you peyton and tony dungy.
and now it is only 2 days until my mom comes in town. cant wait!
love,
mccabe

last night i went to see the spazmatics. they were so fun! there is nothing like a nerdy cover band that sings all the 80s songs you know by heart.

i love hanging out with my wyldlife team. they are easy to be around. they are fun. they make me laugh. they are encouraging. they make me want to be more of who God made me to be and nothing else.

it is storming right now here in dallas. i love storms, especially from a porch at the beach.
