Holidaze

December, month full of birthdays, pretty lights, cookies, and lots of classic Christmas movies!

Don't get me wrong, I'm still counting down days, but I'm glad I'm in the states for one more Christmas. 

Soon enough I'll be packing my bags for Fiji! I try to squeeze this little tidbit in to at least one conversation a day. What can I say? I'm excited, and the words "Fiji," "Peace Corps," and "Mozambique"have simply become a part of my speech pattern.

Here's some catch-up of recent happenings:

December 11th, was my boyfriend's birthday over in Fiji! I sent this package a few weeks ago, and it has yet to arrive. I hope he has as much fun opening it as I did wrapping it!

To whittle away time, I've taken up knitting again!


And I ran my second ever half-marathon! Coming in at a time of 2 hours and 23 minutes! 20 minutes faster than my last one!

I hope to do another in March!


Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
This time next year I'll be Christmasing' in Africa!
