Next instrument: purchased

A dear friend of mine's father built this from Peruvian mahogany and the wood of a 100-year-old piano.

All is calm, all is bright

Happy early birthday, best Friend. Thank You for being born.

I made fun of Ke$ha on the radio

Oops.

For winning RSU's Battle of the Bands, the Rabbits and I were given the opportunity to be interviewed on Tulsa's rock station, The Edge (104.5). Then we got to come back last night and play three of our songs that were aired live on the radio.

Dwight Twilley was already in the studio when we arrived and told us he thought our music had a 'good feel to it' and that I had 'killer vox.' I found him on Wiki later and learned that he is/was friends with Phil Seymour and Tom Petty and had a #16 track on the charts in '75. Alright.

From last year

A Holiday Update

Finally got my license today.

No big deal.

Got my first little black dress today

Sure feel like a grown up in it

Today I am thankful for the simple fact that God let me spend the entire thing without any physical pain

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone

The band as of recently

Watch live streaming video from theclosetstudios at livestream.com

We were selected to attend an art gala, to record live in The Closet Studio, as RSU's battle of the bands winner,  and to appear on The Edge radio soon! Nothing is more fun than to play with the gifts God gave to me for my time on this earth.

Meet Bobby

Car number two

Halloweenie

The best show ever

The Rabbit family

Album coming soon

I am playing the biggest show of my life tonight

The prettiest lady I have ever seen

Attempting to mold my hair after hers for the show Friday night.

Today I was approached my a man and his family in the market; they had happiness in their eyes

He asked if anyone had ever prayed for me. I said, "Sir, that is the only reason I'm alive." Then he asked if they could pray for me. He held my hand and we all bowed our heads in the aisles. He told God, uncaring of the stares from people around us, "This is my sister in Christ. Thank you for saving her. I pray that you would heal her so she doesn't have to wear this brace anymore."


You that call yourselves followers of God, this is who we ought to be.

Stuff we did

This summer I...

He must become greater

I must become less

John 3:30

Eighteen

Once upon a time, I turned eighteen

Then all I wanted to have a birthday picnic in a magical park

Then Liz and I decided to drive really far away from where we were supposed to go and use up most of her gas and meet nice, homeless people in Sperry.

Then we almost cried because we kept driving on one-way streets and couldn't find our way back, so we turned around and followed our bread crumbs all the way back to the park.

Then it was dark when we got there, but it was alright because all our friends were there waiting.

They were happy to see us.

And what fun we had at last.

And how we will take a really long time to grow up.

In approximately 18 minutes I will be 18 years old

There is nothing about turning 18 that sounds appealing. That means I have to start going to jail for stuff I regularly do. And paying bills and wearing black dress pants and being bored. But tomorrow also means cupcakes. And sidewalk chalk in the park and picnics and friends.

And balloons.

I just found out that Tails from Sonic the Hedgehog is a boy

after all these years

I've been believing a lie

The finished product:

You grow

like tornado

Jonsi. Rain. Scriptwriting. Breadsticks. A day well done.

I ain't getting married

unless Roger turns into a real live human and I can have him

Children, wade into the water

Joel 2:28 "And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions."

REDEEMED.

Tomorrow turns a new leaf

Tomorrow I am being baptized again, but this time in a lake.

I was first saved and then later baptized when I was 9 years old, but it didn’t mean much to me; I didn’t do much with it. What good is buying a new dress if you’re not going to wear it? Why become a Christian if you’re not going to tell the whole world about it?

I should have died 6 years ago in a traumatic accident I was involved in. And it wasn’t until just a few years ago when I started piecing things together that I began to realize why God didn’t let me die. . . and what it is I am to live for.

God didn’t save me so I can feel sorry for myself. He saved me because there are suffering people all around me who hide in corners and inside their homes because they’re afraid of what people might think of them. There are girls who are too scared to look at themselves in the mirror because they don’t think they are pretty. And there is Susie— a girl who used to hide in corners because she has brain trauma, a girl who used to be too scared to look in the mirror because she can barely walk-- but who has so much joy inside of her and loves those people

We use our tiny eyes to see enormous things and God uses the small to do great things

When I was in the hospital, God spoke to me and said, “Susie, you will always be weak. But I will always be strong for you.”

And just recently I have been called to missions over in Iraq--to learn their language and tell the murdering, Iraqi soldiers who killed my friend years ago that there is just as much hope for them as there is for me.

I am called to love like Jesus loved

And tomorrow I am turning a new leaf; I am being baptized like Jesus was baptized

Down in the water by His friends.
