The End of 2012...

The end of 2012 was extra good to us so I thought I should show and tell you what we did!

This handsome man is my cousin who is now serving a mission in Washington DC but before he left I had the opportunity to take his mission pictures so here are few to show you...






In December Chelsee, Matt, and Scout came to Utah!!!  We had so much fun spending the short time we had with them and celebrating an early Chrismas with my family before we went to China!!


Trevor's grandma took the Wortley's (all 28 of us) on a cruise that started out to be freezing then super hot! We went to Hong Kong, Vietnam, Thailand, and Singapore!  Before we got on the ship we were in Beijing to see the Great Wall!  We had such a blast in China and especially enjoyed Hong Kong and Singapore!! I also really enjoyed when a lot of the people thought that I was famous!  They would take pictures with me and one person even asked if I knew Lady Gaga! 
 
 
Beijing where it was freezing and had an interesting smell...
 
 
The Great Wall, our tour guide told us that the weather that day hit a record for the coldest it had been in a really really long time, of course it had to be the day we were there...
 
 
 
Hong Kong, every night they have a laser light show off the buildings.  Hong Kong was such a cool city...
 
 
My hair was really struggling this day with the wind...In Hong Kong one second you would be surrounded by huge buildings then the next second you would be surrounded by trees and gardens...
 
 
We were able to find the Hong Kong Temple, too bad it was a Monday so no one was around and we couldn't go inside but the outside was amazing...
 
 
Vietnam, of course we had to buy these hats just to take a picture....
 
 
One of the seven wonders of the world Ha Long Bay...
 
 
 
 
 
 
This was a common sight in Vietnam...
 
 
Thailand, really hot but we still had so much fun... 

 
 
 
 
 
That is correct, we rode elephants in Thailand!  The scarf around my head (that is falling out) was my grandma's, she loved elephants so I thought it would be neat to wear it for her that day...
 
 
 
 
 
Singapore, even hotter than Thailand but so so clean!! Everything was so nice and looked like it was built yesterday...
 
 
 
We are sad that we missed Mr. and Mrs. Mathewson's amazing wedding and other family events but we are also very grateful to Grandma Wortley for such a fabulous trip!!
