2010-2011

Wow. I haven't blogged in forever... This past semester was absolutely crazy for me! I plan on blogging more this next one... Keep your fingers crossed! haha

I wanted to do a New Year's post the other day, but was simply too tired after work. So, here it is! :)

2010 was a great year for me. I'd venture to say it was definitely the best I've had in at least 5 years... I think this had much to do with the fact that I had my body back! After having back surgery in November 2009, my back greatly improved over 2010 and I had many adventures that coincided with this great "new" life!

Highlights of 2010:
I completed a total of 44 credits at the University of Utah.
I ran my first mile since 2005... It was amazing! I've gone running many times since.
Vail with friends for President's Day weekend
Road trip to Lava Hot Springs during the summer (including the water park and tubing the river)! :)
Many friends went on missions.
Old friends came home from missions. :)
My best friend's wedding. Congrats to Kalyn and Scott Gourley!
I met some wonderful people. Some new great friends. :)
Lake Powell, Las Vegas, and Camping with my family.

I'm sure this list could go on forever... Those are some of the big things I can think of right now though. I'm sure that 2011 will be even better! ;)
