I like food. I think I like food too much. I was going through pictures today and all the ones I want to post are of delicious things I have made. But ok first things first. I am going to Jerusalem in September! I am so thrilled that finally after a year of submitting applications and being on waiting lists, I am officially going. This is a picture of the center. My friend explained that there are 3 hills that consist of the Mount of Olives and the BYU Jerusalem Center is located on one of the three, Mount Scopus. Isn't is beautiful? I will live there for 4 months!
I am really excited, this is something I have been wanting to do since I was in high school. But I am really scared. I have been spoiled and so far I have never been away from a family member for more than two or three weeks. And not only is this a study abroad, it is in the Holy Land with as Melissa says, "domestic violence... and then she said well maybe a better phrase is civil unrest." Ha, either way it is dangerous and my mom is really scared too. I have been having nightmares of crazy things happening to me when I am there and then I wake up and think, "Oh no I have to get my name off the list right now." So hopefully the excitement will push away all my fears.
This month of June has been filled with lots of family hangouts, going through pictures, kissing Tillie's face way too much, spider bites and rashes for all (we need pest control!), and lots of good food. Here is a little show of the happenings.
