I thought I would be a good blogger because I like to write. I see that I was wrong. Apparently you're supposed to update multiple times a week and you're supposed to post on one central topic. I see I have failed at this. Miserably.
Today I wanted to blog and when I went to get on, it had been so long I couldn't remember how to get in my account. I had to call my blog savvy friend (and by call, I mean text) to figure it out! Luckily, she gave me instructions to get back into my blog. Yay!
So since I haven't updated in FOREVER...I decided to recap my 2010 through photos. I figure this is the easiest way to update my fair readers as to what I have been up to for the past year or so...
So here goes...
Feb. 11, 2010: Snow Day in Texas!! Here I am, almost exactly one year later sitting at home for the same reason! Yay for snow!!
March 12, 2010: Disney World! Me and my friend Rachel took our drill team girls to Disney World. The first day (as you see here) was ridiculously rainy! But the rest of the time it was sunny and perfect! I had so much fun on this trip and I love how Disney World always makes you feel like a kid again. I did not, however, get to meet Cinderella, which was my goal. Looks like I'll have to make another trip there to meet her!
June 7-21, 2010: Yei, Sudan. I had the opportunity to go with a group from my church to Yei, Sudan where we worked in two orphanages and taught the kids about God. This trip could take up a whole post in itself. Let's just say, it was amazing!
July 2-9, 2010: New Mexico. My sweet friend Valerie and her husband, Wesley, invited a few of us to his family cabin in New Mexico. This was my second trip to the cabin and I love getting to go visit. I actually had less connection with the world in the mountains of New Mexico than I did in Yei, Sudan!! This is a pic from when the boys headed up to the summit of Pecos Baldy, us girls just got to this point and turned back. Valerie couldn't make the hike though because she was pregnant with Carter. I love spending time up there and was glad to spend it with such good friends!
July 11-14, 2010: Concan, TX. My DFW family all packed into one 15 passenger van and headed down south to meet up with our Charlotte family (just call us the Griswolds). We all spent a couple of days in Concan, TX where we floated the Frio River. I had such a fun time and I love floating the river. The only downside was the second day of floating when I tubed down a little waterfall and fell out of my tube! My foot scraped the bottom and I got quite the gash. I tried real hard not to cry, but it hurt SO bad! I survived though and I STILL have a huge scar from it on my foot.
August 27, 2010: Ranger game with Cassie, Jesse, Rachel, and Scott. This is one of my favorite things to do in the summer, head out to the ballpark, watch the game and then stay for the Friday night fireworks! I LOVE fireworks!! And, to top it off, the Rangers went to the World Series for the first time ever, it was so much fun to watch!! (And also excruciating to lose.)
November 20, 2010: Guyer makes it into the playoffs again and we ended up going all the way to the State Championship. This is one month before the state game, we got to play at Cowboys Stadium a lot, so of course I had to get my picture on "the" star.
December 21, 2010: Lunar eclipse. This is some of my church community. We all headed out to a friend's house in the "country" to watch the lunar eclipse. I have gotten to know many of these friends more over the past year and so I thought it would be fitting to include them in a review of my year. This night was also just a fun night!
December 31, 2010: More church family. We all got together to ring in 2011. Another fun night!
So there's my year in an nutshell. I'm hoping I'll remember to post some more things later.
