My house in Boulder

below are pictures of where I am staying in Boulder.  The house I am staying in is so nice!  I have the entire bottom floor to myself, equipped with a bedroom, sitting room, and my own bathroom.  My roommate Anita is awesome too!  She is the best roommate (expect for Tyler)

Kristen

I went to Pittsburgh this summer to see Kristen. I had so much fun! Here is my favorite picture that I took of Kristen. More to follow!!!

Destination

My new favorite picture that I took while on my cruise. I call it "Destination" Te he

DC trip

I got to visit Kristen in Pittsburgh. We also made a side trip to DC (which included two nights sleeping on a nasty bus...gotta love cheap transportation!) We met up with Chris in DC and he showed us all around. We even got important badges! DC is a beautiful city, with lots of cool things, but it was definitely humid (hence the picture of me looking like an airplane at the Smithsonian...I am not even a sweaty person!)

nieces and nephews

I have gotten to spend a little bit of time with all of my nieces and nephews this summer. It has been so fun! We have done crafts, went swimming, to the library and baked banana bread. Unfortunately...I have one picture. It is cute though! This is Abby and Jake making banana bread.
