pioneer school

we went to pioneer school in the beginning of august for 2 weeks.  it was an incredible experience, was  intensely filled with studying but was absolutely awesome.   i didn't think we'd know anyone in the class but was pleasantly surprised. besides knowing a few people already, we made some great new friends as well.  below, first photo, ready for our first day of school!  don't worry, i did put shoes on.

below:  me with Ashley... she and I actually vacationed together waaaaaay back in 2007 and completely lost touch.  last i knew she was living in the boston area.   surprise!  she is now married and lives in VT and was in our pioneer school!  that was AWESOME to see her again.

    1. Exactly what I was going to say. Small world, and such a lovely one. Glad it was a good experience all the way around!

  3. do you ever feel like you make these great connections with brothers and sisters and don't have time to keep in touch when BAM you bump into them again?! we are all so busy. it makes the reunions that much sweeter.
