First of all, back in April, my mom and I got to spend an amazing week with the phenominal Pliego family. We had a wonderful time staying in their home, and they showed us the "city of contrast"--Mexico City. It was an absolute blast!

Nikko, Isabel, Myself, Santiago, and Annie! |
I had so much fun with them, and I can't wait to see them again, soon. I'm so thankful to God to know such a wonderful family. :)
After Spring break, my cousin got married! So my family and I went to his wedding. Where was he? San Francisco. Who also lives in San Francisco? Dr. Amanda and Jonah (Jacob ;))? YESSSSS.

Whip our hair in public? Us? Noooooo. ;) |
After San Francisco, one of the big things that happened was...Exam week. But I don't have any pictures during that time. Just imagine a freaking-out-teenager in front of a laptop, and you'll be thinking of me. :)
Once exam week was over, my family and I prepared for the End of the Year Gathering! Before we went to Lancaster, however, we took a couple stops along the way. Philadelphia. Onward!

Thanks, Momma. She was able to take a picture of the Liberty Bell...
with no people in the background! Which is quite remarkable, because the place was PACKED.

Philadelphia had amazing sidewalks. Always had to watch your step, and the scenery was epic. |
After Philadelphia, we went to Atlantic City to see some family friends. The casinos weren't anything like Vegas. BUT! They did have amaaazing beaches.
Finally, last week, I went to see my friends at the End of the Year Gathering. It was extremely fun! Seeing everyone was a blast. And since this blog post is reeeeally long, I'm not sure which picture to use as an explanatory photo of the gathering. But I think the following one does. Families, students, and teachers gathered together. Everyone smiling--having a good time. And joyfullness--personified by Josie. :)
So that's it for now! I'll post more pictures from the following places later on this summer. Hasta la pasta! ;)
