12/27/10 The last picture...

A Dutch Bros stop sign... Ah, the random moments of life! :)

My roommate and I went in search of the last picture for my blog. It's hard to believe that I have taken a picture every day for a year. I was thinking this morning that I wished I could take a picture of God's glory... but, I think I have been doing that every single day this year. He has blessed me with a wonderful life. It's wonderful because I get to live it with my savior! Now, to find another goal for 2011... :)

My Mathematical Thinking for Instruction class is finally over. Due to budget cuts, students no longer get certificates of completion... My roommate got one and she only completed the class a few months ago. To get over our grief, my friend Sally and I made our own certificates for each other.

I am thankful for the amazing trips I have taken. If you had told me when I was 18 that I would go to 12 countries in the next six years I wouldn't have believed you. Wow, what a blessed girl I am!

11/10/10

(Imagine another kindergarten class getting to paint their pumpkins!)
