One year ago

• I was packing up 2 suitcases with the clothes and items I would need for 5 months.
• I was saying goodbye to my family for 5 months.
• I was picking up my best friend and driving to Salt Lake.
• I was getting ready to start a week of training for a job that would take me thousands of miles away from home.
• And I was scared silly.

I can't believe that a year has gone by!  I was so excited to go on the biggest adventure of my life!  To go to a tropical island and live in a place where I wouldn't know a single person except for my best friend Kassidy who was going with me.  A place that I had only found out 3 weeks before that I would be moving to. 

I had no idea what adventures would come my way.  The people I would meet.  The places I would visit.  I am so thankful for the opportunity that I had to go there.  For everything I learned about myself and the world.  One year goes by so quickly!

Also another celebration that is going on today is a blog-o-versary over at Love and Happiness!  To celebrate she is hosting a giveaway.  Go enter and if you win I want one of the caramels! lol
