My Christmas in Pictures

Not everyone's holidays are full of happiness and cheer. Sometimes family's don't get along. Sometimes people get a broken heart for Christmas. Sometimes people, big and small, don't get gifts. Thankfully, this does not pertain to me. Perhaps, instead of the gifts you give and receive, you should love what you already have! Love who you so fortunately have around you. I do! Here is a glimpse of what my Christmas looked like this year, from my dance studio party, to my family gathering together just to play games and laugh! I hope you enjoyed the last of your 2016 as much as I did!













Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all!

The Trip to End All Trips

They say to travel as much as you can while you're young. To make memories. Whoever "they" are, I think they're right! I travel a lot... It's no secret. I am even planning all of my trips out for 2017! This year I went on 5 different vacations. A weekend in DC, a long weekend in Clearwater, a week in Del Ray/Clearwater, a weekend in Nashville, and this last one has topped them all off. It was the perfect way to end my traveling for the year (maybe)!  I started Labor Day weekend in Las Vegas, to celebrate my 30th birthday, with 3 friends that I can't begin to express my gratitude for! With Friday came a ton of hype and excitement for the weekend ahead... It was a crazy weekend!... Now we all know that what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, so I will simply say things that no one will understand, except the 4 people present, and I will be satisfied having told you my story... Sort of!...  It all started with Galliano, Esther, take your teeth out,

Quote of My Day

"Breathe, my friend. You are not old, you are young. You are not a mess, you are normal. Extraordinary, perhaps. In the blink of an eye your life will change. And it will continue to change for decades to come. Enjoy it, embrace it... Be grateful for the ride. You are not old, you are young. And faith will get you everywhere. Just you wait."  - Abby Larson

Take a Ride with Me

I have written before about escaping . When I lived in Tennessee it was a lot easier to just get in my car, drive into the mountainous area where my favorite lake was, lose cell service, and hide for a weekend. Living back in Ohio has made it a little more difficult to escape to anywhere. Life has been very crazy this summer. One of my best friends and I, however, found a great escape. We kept saying we wanted to work out, which I've even stated on my 30 before 30 list that I wanted to work out more, and we found a way that wasn't too much or too little. Bicycling There's a bike trail that runs north and south about 2 miles from where I live so we ride over to the trail and usually head north to get a little exercise and catch up on our gossip. I have found this to be a wonderful outlet. In the beginning we called it our BBR's (Bestie Bike Rides). Now I just call it a bike escape.  When my friend can't go with me, I plug in my headphones to my iPod
