From One Year to the Next

It's my birthday! 
I absolutely hands down love my birthday. I'm 28 {gasp that's new!} and I still {and hopefully always will} love my birthday. New Years and looking back at the calendar year is fun but there is something even more special to reflect on the past year of your own personal 'New Years'.


{27} You have been so fun and yet so unexpected. It amazes me how far I have come and what I have learned in the past year. There have been many new experiences and adventures, there have been heart aches, and milestones, mountaintops and valleys and I would not trade any of it.


The many adventures and life moments at 27:
joined weight watchers ; Visited Voyaguers National Park  ; celebrated a year at the new job  ; saw Canada for the 1st time  ; discovered a new way of eating  ; gave my 3rd MOH speech  ; lost 25 lbs  ; went to my first double feature  became a 'words with friends' board for halloween ; took a boat cruise on the Mississippi became slightly obsessed with nail polish  
; fell in love with pintrest ; hopped on the twitter bandwagon ; started teaching preschool twice a month at church worked on adding more margin to my life received pedicure #1 & #2 
first manicure ever ; started coordinating weddings at church 



God has amazed me and taught me so much and yet there is still so much to learn and experience and liveAs I look at 28 I too wonder what that will hold, whatever it holds I know that I am ready for it with God, my family & friends by my side.


Let the adventure begin.
