2010...whoa

it's 2010...and i don't know where last year went, but i was quite busy going from here to there.

here are just a few of the places i saw...

i can confidently say that between the months of january and april i spent about 45 hours driving to and from utah 7 times!

{my oldest sister melissa got married in january--hair and makeup compliments of moi--in the bountiful temple} i also drove down for my grandpa's funeral and nephews blessing and a field trip for a humanities class--i love college

{my first visit to a hindu temple--so beautiful!}

i left for my 2nd trip to europe with byui's humanities dept in april

{first stop london--olivia andrea and i infront of parliament}

{next paris--outside the louvre}

{rome--throwing a coin into trevi fountain so i'll go back one day

also went to siena, verona, florence, san gimignano, bergamo}

{beautiful salzburg austria--view from top of the fortress}

{taking in marienplatz in munich germany--our last leg of the trip}

after a fun filled 3 weeks of running around europe i returned home to wa, first stopping in the tri cities for 2 weeks for my best friends {lindsay} wedding, then on to puyallup

i spent most of the summer working and taking occasional trips to seattle and the wa coast when friends came to visit {courtney--danielle}

after a 3 year absence, i finally got to go camping again--the view i had of beautiful mt. rainier

i returned back to rexburg in sept for my last year in college and last year living in idaho {hopefully} and then flew back home to wa for thanksgiving and christmas

{seeing the lights at temple square in SLC--jaysa and i}

overall it's been a pretty great--extremely fast-- year with tons of time spent in cars, buses and on airplanes

ps- if the coming year follows the pattern of the past 4 years i should be going to the east coast sometime during the summer months with 2011 seeing me off to europe again!
