Blogger Hates Me: or, a recap of the year -going backwards.

After attempting to finish uploading pictures for the millionth time (slight exaggeration), I gave up. You'll have to just bear with me.
This is the first installment of the 2010 recap.
Yes, there's a lot of pictures, probably terrible grammar mistakes, and spacing issues, but I got impatient. So here you go: a little bit of my year's highlights/themes/adventures

Cappy's pulled pork on a Saturday: my summer/fall tradition -in the which I managed to convert several co-workers to the addiction :)


New roommate adventures :)


exploring the tourist traps -er, ATTRACTIONS in the BH


developing my love/hate relationship with this place
I love my job, I love my job, I love my job, I love my job...


Feet staples:TOMS -finally!

New friends and old friends, lots and lots of campfire bonding time


Lots of road trips to the Sand hills of NE to visit these little cuties


road trip to KC to visit old classmates -taking in the free art museum.
And I quote "I don't know what that is, but I'm assuming it's naked"


many, many gun adventures: don't worry, he's normal. I think.


Cooking adventures at work: conquering the Hobo Dinner


developing my love/hate relationship for this part of the Black Hills


Rapid City Rush hockey games: a new addiction...


Brazil trip! Loving on the siblings and children, as well as making new friends, eating a lot of amazing food and drinking ample amounts of coffee


Post-Christmas with the fam (some of them) in Dix


Holidays at Work. (Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's weekend)
This would be New Year's Eve, making funnel cakes, and starting things on fire. :)

It's crazy to think of all that happened and changed and impacted me in 2010. But, even if there's moments I want to hold on to, or things that I don't want to face yet, time is moving on. Ready or not. Here we go...

Five Minute Friday: After

It's the week After Easter... Resurrection Sunday... celebration of New Life and Power over Death.  Last week was good.  I had some good reads last week: Love to the Uttermost , The Jesus Storybook Bible , Galatians , John , The Story of Hope .  I listened to a Resurrection playlist that was over 8 hours long so I don't think that I ever made it all the way through.  I had encouraging time with my church family here as we celebrated the Truth of the Gospel. And now, the Week After, I am feeling a little ...overwhelmed? let down?   Because After Easter I have only 3 weeks left of class.  And After Easter I only have one week left with my Moving Friends.  And After Easter I only have a month left with Friends who are here for school.  And After Easter life seems so.... well. anti climactic?  Which is all ridiculous because the whole beautiful thing about the week after the Resurrection is purpose and hope  Before it was me the hopeless and helpless los

You know how life is not always what you were expecting or planned? Yeah... my life precisely. Hence the phrase, "Life is an adventure." Because, well, it is. You see, I've been skiing for 10+ years and this year was no exception! I had the opportunity to go on an awesome sauce weekend with some work friends to Telluride : friends, fresh powder, skiing, too many slopes to choose from, Colorado goodness - how is this a bad plan ???  Well it wasn't.... until the unexpected happened and I found myself relaxing on the side of the mountain waiting for my Ski Patrol buddies to come rescue me from my broken bone dilemma. The moral of the story is: never assume that it won't happen to you. Also, make sure that you have awesome friends to take care of you when you are on drugs.  (P.S. hospital gowns totally live up to their reputation: hawt.) life is looking a lot like this these days:    I've been living in my sweats and spending a lot of qualit
