Here are a few of my highlights from 2010..
In January I headed to Orlando, Florida for FOCUS Conference (Fellowship of Catholic University Students) I celebrated Mass with over 4,000 college students from across America and even found time to sneak out one night to go to Disney's Magic Kingdom.
In February I went to NACA (National Association of Campus Activities) in Boston. We watched hours of live entertainment, lived off Au Bon Pain, and visited Harvard.


In March, I went to the Dominican Republic for a week to work in an orphanage. I loved the children, the laid back lifestyle, and the beautiful scenery. I didn't love the 150 bug bites I came back with.

April consisted of me finishing up my sophomore year at NW and busy busy busy with SAC stuff. Also a trip to Arizona with my dad to see my Great Uncle Dennis.
In May, I spent time at home and made a quilt in four days.
In June and July I began my internship in Washington, D.C. with the Make-A-Wish Foundation, took a day trip to Rehoboth Beach in Delaware, had a visit from my friend, Ryan, tutored inner city children at FLOC, met my friend Chase, planned wishes for little kiddos, celebrated the 4th, ate lots of frozen yogurt and took a class online.



In August, I headed home from Washington and went to the Twin Cities to see my cousin get married. I also moved into my house in Maryville and began my junior year of college.
In October, my parents visited me for Family Weekend at NW. I also turned 21! My sisters and Maddie drove from Iowa City to help me celebrate. I also got stitches for the first time!
In November, my friends and I headed to Kansas City to watch the Bearcats play at Arrowhead Stadium. A spur of the moment trip to Omaha landed me a front row ticket to "How the Grinch Stole Christmas." For Thanksgiving, we traveled to Sioux Falls, SD to spend the holiday with my mom's side of the family and shop til we dropped on Black Friday.
In December, I finished yet another semester at Northwest. Celebrated the holiday season with a few parties and headed home to Iowa to spend time with my family.
Wheww...I had a great 2010!
Praying my flight isn't delayed or canclled on Friday. I will be gone from blogging unitl I return from my trip.
Wishing you the best in 2011!
