I LOVE "love"

Has a person ever made you so happy, you just want to cry??
Well, I've cried a LOT over the past week.... Because I left that person. In Sweden. At the airport.
He makes me extremely happy, plus he treats me with a ton of respect. He dazzles me, and loves me for who I am.


Enough sadness!!! I know I'll see him again :)
Plus we skype everyday, and it is the highlight of my whole day.


My last week in Sweden was amazing! And sad, saying goodbye to everyone.
That's just how life is.... and it's slightly depressing!
My friend Alyssa and I are planning on making a new country: Swederica!! (Sweden and America, in case you didn't get it....)
We're going to take all the people we know, put them on our island, and live happily ever after :) Great idea, eh??
Anyways...........
I will give you the highlights of the past few weeks! Enjoy :)




In Sweden there are a bunch of random cats and bunnies. Everywhere you go.




Gorgeous sunset on my 12 hour long date, with one amazing young man :)






There was a swan on our date... random? 


On my date I missed my train the night before... so we stayed up all night! We watched the sunset, AND the sunrise :)


In Stockholm, we lived out of these bags. And we felt homeless!


By the time we were settled in, we were STARVING.


Thus resulting dancing in front of the microwave, trying to get it to cook the food for our tummies!!




I then tucked Alyssa into bed. I think I did a grrreat job!!


Doing baptisms in the Stockholm temple= AMAZING


This is the King and Queens current castle? I believe... I could be wrong!


Walking up the smallest alley? street? In Europe.


Cutest boy ever!! I love him to pieces. He makes me very excited to have kids, that's how cute he is!


In Stockholm we were hit on by Estonian guys. They were verrry creepy! They wanted my facebook and skype name.... and my phone number. I pretended I couldn't understand them (and I kinda couldn't.... actually!) So this is me "running" away from them!


Here in America we don't have communal showers. If we do, it is rare! In Europe, the women shower together. At Festinord (a week long camp I went to for YSA) we all had to shower together!
Not us Americans! We did not rest until we found our own private shower, 25 minutes away. 
In this picture I was so happy, I wet my pants because I couldn't stop laughing!




Kebab pizza is the best thing there is. Too bad it's illegal in the U.S.!


My favorite cereal ever!! Amanda bought me this cereal to take home :)


Cliff jumping with the Hulterstrom brothers






David did a flip into the water... and had a slight face plant! I love this picture... so cool




Best friends! :)




This is Amanda's nephew... I love him to pieces as well! He drew me a picture, and made me a rose-like thing out of lego's? It was very nice of him.




Amanda's mom knitted us scarves!!!!! She bought the yarn on a Monday, and had them all made by Thursday when she gave them to us!








We could easily swim out to this floating dock thing- super fun!! We were all pushing each other off :)






Amanda I miss you soooo much :( I'm so grateful you let me stay in your house for 3 months! 




We all love each other :)







The missionaries in our ward drew us a picture for a going away present! Very nice of them.



He helped me pack all night! We got slightly distracted.... by him trying on all of my dresses!


These boys came to the airport! One last time. The "underwear" the guy on the far left is wearing.... use to be a dark purple ;) They are his swimming-wear!






All in all I learned so much at Sweden, and I had a lovely summer. I can't wait to return :)
