Photo Journal

My summer seems like a faded dream now. My six weeks in the States went so quickly. Now, I'm three weeks into work and will start my third week with students. The highlights of  my trip include meals out with friends, winery visits, a family trip to Ohio, a trip to New York, endless nights of food, seeing the USWNT play in Pittsburgh, and many other fantastic memories. I don't feel the need to give you a play by play of how my summer played out. So below I have attached countless photos of my time at home with brief captions. Wishing you all a warm and happy start to the academic year!

Typical. Ice Cream at the Purple Cow.

Two favorite places to be- with family and in the car. 

Early morning rides to Dad's work require naps and Dunkin' Donuts. 

Many trip to the local library and book stores. My sisters read as much as I do!

Struggles of Packing

Spending my last days trying to pack. Ended up buying a new suitcase. Then spent my last evening with my sisters at their Back to School Night.

Enrollment Day at FSAS.

Trying to add more familiar faces to my room. 

You can see I'm full swing into organizing, planning, and preparing. PS: I don't love zebra print- I just happen to be the Zebra Family.

Until next summer.. 302 days away.
