So again I am soooo behind in my posts and have not had much time to write any because of all the things I have been doing!! Hopefully in the next couple of weeks I can start catching up on some of my adventures and at least give you guys a taste of what has been going on in my life. The last year I have worked my tail off but also have some time to enjoy life and want to share that with y'all!
After a crazy first few months of 2012 were I went to another course in Abu Dhabi for 1 month, worked offshore for 40 of 60 days working, and then after 2 days off worked another 60 days, I finally was given time off. In all I had accumulated 17 days off . . . not vacations! It was a good thing getting that much time off but man was I tired!!
With the days off I decided to go back to the states where first I went to Raleigh for Jake's 1st birthday party. I was so thankful for being able to make it in time because for once I could be part of the family not just seeing pictures and hearing about what fun the had together. I can not believe how fast his first year went!

Nothing better than a Wolfpack football game in the spring! |
I then went home to High Point for a week. After working so hard I pretty much shut down, physically and mentally. I do not remember much of the week because I was zoned out. When the week ended I realized that I had done nothing that I planned to do, and I even forgot to eat lunch with my Grandma before I left . . . I am such a bad granddaughter ;). That week was another side effect of working to much . . . not good.
After leaving the world for a week I came back around in time to go to Colorado to see my bestie, Sarah!! I had not seen her in waaaaayyyyy to long! I ended up going for close to a week and it was great just spending time with her and fellowship with other people that I would say and similar to me!! I will write more about Colorado in the next post, but below is a taste of the beauty that is Colorado!

First time seeing the Rockies!! |
After getting back to NC I stayed in Raleigh and hung out with the sisters and the Jakester. Lizzie and I decided to take a quick day trip to Wilmington so that I could see Memaw and Papa, as well as, for them to see Jake. I was very thankful to be able to make it down there to see them and of course spend some good quality sister time in the car!
