This time last year...

Today I was cleaning my closet and stumbled across the journal I kept for my class while I was in England.  I flipped to January 1st last year and suddenly remembered what an incredible day that was.  I know I said I wouldn’t reflect on last yearbut just allow me to take a short trip down memory lane.  Going to England was such an amazing trip and time in my life.  I absolutely love to travel and hope for many trips like this in the future.

We climbed 502 feet to the top of the Tor.  I remember how long it seemed to take to get to the top but how incredible the view was, making it totally worth the climb.  I specifically remember looking over and seeing this heart shape that had been formed in a field.  I remember thinking how incredible God’s beauty was, something that it always important for us to remember.

We also visited the Glastonbury Abbey.  I thought that it was going to be so incredibly boring.  I’ve never been so wrong in my life.  This was one of the coolest things we were able to see on the trip.  There was so much history and beauty, even in the ruins.  I could only imagine the magnificence of it during its time.


The cheddar caves were another delightful surprise.  Not only did I learn more of England’s history and get to explore a unique city, but I also had so much fun taking random pictures with my friends.
 
Last year on this day I didn’t know what was in store.  I didn’t know how many adventures were going to take place on that day, let alone that year.  I can only imagine what this year has in store.  I already had a wonderful day today spending time with family.  We did some shopping and just relaxed....pretty wonderful if you ask me. :)
