Top Ten Moments from My First 25 Years

i've been on this earth 25 years now... hard to believe. and with that i thought i would take a page out of tony morgan's playbook and present you with a top ten list (or maybe this is out of david letterman's playbook)...

Top Ten Moments from My First 25 Years

1. entered into a relationship w/ Christ at age 12 (thanks franklin graham)
2. married the most amazing woman in the world on july 21, 2007 (love you, kate!)
3. picked up a basketball and began the obsession at (roughly) age 4
4. summer of 2006... italy for 5 weeks followed by a 10 day trip to sao paulo, brazil (began serving a worldwide God)
5. crowell's intensity camp at age 16... pushed myself to new heights and learned to exceed expectations
6. 2003 Montana High School Basketball State Champions... 23-0. best team the state of montana has ever seen (and i'm hardly biased... just ask around :))
7. Rocky Mountain College 2003-2007 i learned who i was and what i wanted to live for (thanks RMC bball coaches and teammates, real life, matt blakeslee, brian carpenter, plus many other people and experiences)
8. Journey Church 2007-present... found my calling and haven't worked a day since!
9. living with two loving, Godly parents... i could never choose just one moment (thanks mom and dad!)
10. adopting Kula, the greatest dog to ever drool... you wish you had a black golden retriever great dane mix :)

i'm guessing i left quite a few key moments out... but this will do. and it makes me thankful for the 25 years i've lived. my life is blessed... and you might be jealous, but don't worry, i love you all.

What about driving to Miles City in the middle of the night and talking about a shared affection for Kates? I've never been the same.

Or how about the time I played soccer?

What about when I kicked your butt in basketball?

Or I took all your money in poker?

Or when I took you to the airport?

Remember the time we ate together?

Good times.
