Joy in the Journey

[Some of the labes are messed up...but I'm tired, and you're smart, you can figure it out I think ;)]

Hello friends!

Its been a while since I've posted. I wish I could honestly say that I've been busy, but it in truth I've been busy at times, and then procrastinated at other times ;)

This summer has been quite different - following the end of year performance at LWB at the beginning of June, the rest of my summer (thus far) has had no dancing, but some other fun things, such as packing, moving, saying goodbye to Syracuse, vacationing, roadtripping, and saying hello again to Denver. I've been in Denver for a couple of weeks now, and and still trying to set up my room... You know how it goes. So here's some pictures from the summer...

My roommate Cayla and I took a day trip into Boston (She's from MA)

...and we also spent a week out on Cape Cod...

and we also kayaked/picnicked a bit :-)

...and also took a day trip to Martha's Vineyard! This lighthouse is on MV.

On our road trip from Cape Cod to Denver, we stopped through Cleveland to see some sweet friends :) And also went to Cedar Point amusement park for the day!

And we also stopped through Peoria, IL to see my grandparents, and also got to see my aunt and uncle!

Roadtrips merit Starbucks (Omaha, NE)

And then we also decided to climb a 14er after we got to Denver :) Yes, we are a little crazy...but we did it!

Beautiful scenery, beautiful friends...


Its been a good summer. Adventures with friends, lots of transitions, some hard times, and a lot of fun times. I've been learning a lot...but I should probably post that in another blog ;-) Suffice it to say, that even in valleys, the Lord provides refreshment for those He loves. There is joy in the journey.
