Goodbye, 2010

{january}

Passion 2010. The best 4 days of my life. Seems like a drastic statement, but it's truth. God really did a work on my heart in those 4 days.

I spent recruitment apart from my sisters being a Pi Chi with these lovely ladies.

which, unfortunately, ended in breaking my leg. the next 3 months were full of many tears, lots of pain, doctor and specialist appointments, and God truly doing a miracle and teaching me what it means to really trust Him.

{february}

our first big snow of the year! and the biggest snow man I have ever seen. the first half of the year was marked with spending much time with these precious friends.

and a few weeks later, camping. we went to the farm where Mary used to work and helped fix some things around the farm, spent time with each other, rode 4 wheelers, and slept in the barn. I'm not much of a camper really, but I love my friends and if going camping is how I get to spend time with them, I'll do it. and that broken leg was not going to ruin my fun.

{march}

more snow?! we were surprised with another snow day. what does a North Ga student do on a snow day? go sledding down the drill field of course. and the crutches still weren't going to hold me back.

I also turned 21 and spent my birthday and spring break here.

when I got back from spring break, I got to go ahead to throw the crutches down and start walking! a month and a half earlier than originally planned. 

and our AGD Lambda family grew as we initiated the youngest members.

{april}

AGD spring formal. the best one yet. lots of fun friends. lots of good food. lots of dancing. and we left early and had a game night at Sara and Melea's.

On April 26, I finished my junior year, which I thought would be the death of me. And that night my life changed forever when I met Cosbie Hollenbeck.

{may}

May was a big month. I spent the month in Panama and completed my Spanish minor. The people and children I met in Panama changed me forever.
