2010 has been a crazy year.

Full of the unexpected. Some disappointments and plenty of tears.

Lots of lessons learned.

Chalk full of unimaginable joy.

As we close the pages on 2010…I’m so thankful that God knows the bigger picture–even when we don’t.

Here are a few of our favorite memories:

Marc & I traveled home in the spring to get hitched…

We had a great bridal shower in Michigan…

And Iowa…

I feel like there’s something about bachelorette parties and boas that just go together…

And we got married…!!!

I love my husband.

So many of our friends and family traveled for the festivities…we’re so blessed!

Marc & I went to his family’s cottage in Canada. My first time in Canada…and it was totally worth it!

Marc’s parents threw us a party in Michigan as well…

We LOVED our honeymoon in Greece!

We moved into our first house together.

Spent great times with our interns.

Ran a 15k mountain race.

Went on some amazing game drives.

Loved spending time with our favorite kiddos…

One of my favorite fellow vegetarians, Carolina, & I started Peas in a Blog. Which means I started photographing nearly everything we ate…like this…

We said goodbye to friends…

(not sure what I’m doing with my face…)

We moved across the country (South Africa)…and into our new home in Cape Town.

And now we’re in America. Loving our white Christmas!

We wish you and yours a very Happy New Year! (I’m totally impressed you made it this far…excuse the 30+ photos…).

All my Love,
