23

At the perfect place, log jam to celebrate 23 years. Some of these girls in here have now celebrated 5 birthdays with me! I cant believe how time flies. My day was perfect for turning 23. I had lunch with my mom and all the little ones gave me so much love that day. I hope this next year is better than the last. I feel my whole self changing and craving something more from this world.
 We visited Wilmar and Taylor the weekend before my birthday. We never get a good picture together.. I'm glad this one turned out decent :)
 Kate, my first best friend in college and Karissa I've gotten close to over the years! Love you two.
 
My heart has been heavy for change lately. Needing to move on from this place I am currently at. I know God has something amazing for me out there and I don't think its here anymore. How do you close a big chapter of your life and start a new fresh one? I guess Ill find out. I'm so thankful for the memories that I will carry forever and the best friends I have made that I will never forget. We are all ending up in different places in this world, thankfully we take a piece of each other where ever we go.

11 days

11 days and I will be another number in my twenties. Like each year your birthday is always different, and what makes it the most different is what happened in the year before you reached the next number. I cant express this emotion I feel for my birthday. As a college graduate and not knowing my next step or plan makes it seem like this birthday is not as special...  which I know is a horrible way to look at! Because its one day where you celebrate your life, who you are, and all the things you have to look forward too!
 
November is a month I love for not only my birthday, but a few other things as well! On my birthday I share a very special holiday with my grandpa, Veterans Day. That holiday is so special to me for him. A true hero for so many things in my eyes. This month also holds, black Friday (gasp) and thanksgiving. Its a month that leads up to Christmas and has so much joy to offer.
 
I am blessed to have reached another year in my life and have also accomplished so much in my last! I have a hunch that this next year will be nothing but new beginnings for so many reasons.
 
XOXO
