It’s that time again. To reflect back on the year behind us, and think about the lessons learned. I had an amazing year compared to the heart break of last year. This one was full of happiness and adventures. Here are some snapshots.

Hopped on a plane to Los Angeles for the weekend just to eat.

Celebrating Mardi Gras and my birthday.

Saw the Harlem GlobeTrotters

Met Jo Koy on Vitya’s Birthday

Visited my maman’s ashes in Delaware

Took a Girl’s Trip to my home state!

My first trip to the Outerbanks!

Had an amazing time in Paris, and the south of France, and Monaco with my best friend.

Built hotel forts in Myrtle Beach

Lots of beach time.

Crawfish boils

Fireworks

Bought a motorcycle

Hiked

Spent a lot of the time in the kitchen making things I thought I couldn’t.

Got another sorority little sister

This little chunky joined the family.

And watch this one learn to walk, run, talk, and get potty trained.

I’ve grown a lot this year, and made a lot more memories in one year than I had years before. I learned that life is an adventure and that I should spend it for experience and memories, because that’s what I can keep forever.

I am nervous for what 2013 will bring, but I’ve filled my life with so much positive, it will be hard to get/keep me down anymore.

Cheers!
