New Years...

Just as an update, I thought you should know that I had a great New Years Eve celebration in New Zealand. I spent a few days in the largest city in New Zealand, Auckland, at the National YSA Conference.

Before going to the conference, I visited my Grandmother in a little town called Murupara. As you can see in this photo, I went with my older brother Josh and little sister Jade. You'll also notice my Uncle in the background with the beanie on

Then, after being back in Upper Hutt for a few days, we headed up to Auckland via Hamilton (the home of the NZ Temple). Some of my mates and I were able to visit the Temple lights and the visitors center where I am recorded. It is hilarious by the way.

Anyway, after staying the night with my cousin and her family, we made our way onto Auckland and the conference. Then we partied like it was 1999, except it was actually 2009 (going on 2010). The conference was amazing and we all had some great experiences. Curtis Jacobs was the keynote speaker and he gave some really great insights.

So, that was an update on my New Years experience (except I missed a whole bunch of details...that's all).
