THANK YOU for all of the beautiful pages. I definitely got misty eyed looking at a lot of these layouts!! I will be commenting today and through the weekend. I just wanted to speed through the guideline checks since we are up against the MOC deadline. :)
 
Here is my layout...this has been fun...so glad I finished this year!

Journaling translated:
Then: in 2010 my sisters Leonie and Sandra came to pick me up from Canada. I had been living there for the last 8 months and from the moment they arrived we went on a road trip. We visited a large part in south-west Canada and north-west USA. One of the most amazing national parks was Yellowstone. I was very impressed by all the colours (and scents… lol) that were everywhere. Nothing is “normal” there. And the beautiful weather sure helped a lot too!
Now: when we went on vacation in 2016 with the five of us, we went to the USA again and again went on a road trip. This time we through a large part of mid USA. And again, we went to Yellowstone, because it’s so beautiful it never dulls or bores you. And we were correct, it still was amazing. The colours look even better on these photos. However the smells were less pungent then they were in my memory. And again the weather did a great job.
Future: I’m curious to find out when my third visit will happen.

Laura, I had a GREAT time doing the MOC challenges, though my BYOC was a bit late as a result... ;) I think taking some time to scrap really helps us designers connect with what our customers are looking for in a kit. It was my first time completing all the challenges! I am amazed at scrappers who do hundreds of layouts every year!

 
Thanks for the challenge!! I had a lot of fun with this one too. Can't believe it has actually been 10 years for us!! My word count was 226. Once you get writing it just kind of flows, doesn't it!!
