Hola todos!

So I clearly have kind of dropped the ball on this whole blog thing but I just wanted to make one more entry to inform you all about what has been going on! So since my last entry (which was forever ago and am pretty sure it was about Dublin) much has happened! So I am a fan of lists so I am just going to bullet point some things and since I will be home it just about 2 weeks I can tell stories in person, which is MUCH better than through typing!

  • Have hiked in Monachil, Spain 3 times
  • Went to Marbella, Spain for a day by myself and just sat and read my Bible and had some peace and quiet with the Lord! It was a great day!!!
  • Went to Cordoba, Spain with my program for a day trip
  • Have gone to the beaches in Nerja, Spain more times than I can count and will hopefully go there one last time in the next couple of days!
  • My whole family came!!! It was the BEST!!!! We were in Marbella for about a week in a resort which was fabulous! And then they came to the good old Granada and I got to play tour guide and translator, which was interesting and we got some good stories out of it!
  • I went hiking in Apujarras, Spain with my program which was soooooooo fun!!! We spent the night in one of the little pueblos! It was just fun to get out and do some hiking!
  • I then went to Italy with Kels and Abby! LOVED IT!!! We went to Rome, Florence and Cinque Terre! We saw everything I wanted to! I got to celebrate my 21st birthday in two places, Florence and Cinque Terre, arent i a lucky lady!!!
  • Me and Abby also had quite the trip home! This is a story that MUST be told in person and if you just ask this is one of my most memorable experiences while studying abroad! So i FOR SURE will never forget this one!
  • Then my Senora threw me a birthday party the Sunday I got home from Italy (it was also Easter)! She really is the sweetest!!! I could not have hand picked a better host family!!! The Lord has truly blessed me!!!
  • Now I only have 2 more days of class left and one more test then I have a going away dinner and then off to GREECE for a whole week with two of my best friends, Kels and Bre!!! I am PUMPED!!!
  • Then I get home on May 16th! Which is ridiculously close which still amazes me!!! But it will be nice to be home with you all! And there are def some American things Im missing right now! But at the same time I cant imagine leaving Granada and my host family!
I hope you all enjoyed my rainbow entry and the next time I talk to you all will be in person and when i am home in the US!!! How crazy is that?!?!?!?!?! Thank you so much for all of your support and prayers! I cannot tell you how much they mean to me! It is such a comfort to know that even though I am half way around the world there are people at home praying for me! I hope you all have a wonderful day and good luck on finals (if that applies to you)!


CANT WAIT TO SEE YOU SOOOOOOOO SOON!!!! Sending my love from Spain!!!
