the year

2011


parted with New Zealand  // re-entered the classroom // learned to keep valuables out of the car // said goodbye to Nan with a proper Maori burial (perhaps the most influential event of 2011) // embraced America // ran a 2nd marathon // hiked a volcano // sun-bathed in Fiji // became a yoga regular // tasted the South // conquered Cedar Point // read 40 books // attended the temple 11 of 12 months // welcomed 2 new nephews in New Zealand // started feeling like a legit adult // organized a successful 10K race

I cannot think of a better way to sum up 2011 for us.
