2015 Weddings

In the 3 years that Michael & I have been dating, we have been to at least 30 weddings. No joke. I have no problem with that. However, Michael.... let's just say he's a trooper. Some of my favorite people got married this year and it has been so much fun going back and looking at the pictures of the special times. 

Kelly was the first wedding of the year. 
We went to Nashville for her bachelorette party and her wedding was straight out of a magazine. Kelly and I lived together in college so I heard her talk about her special day a lot. I never could have imagined how beautiful it truly was though. It was so special to see all of her dreams unfolding and watch her marry the man of her dreams. Even if it did mean she had to move. :( 







Next, there was Emily and Anthony. 
I somehow didn't get any pictures at this wedding but it was still beautiful. Emily and I met on a mission trip in Nicaragua in college and I always knew she would make a beautiful bride. 

Dan & Jacqueline were next. 
I knew of Dan from a friend but Michael got close to him when they played on a basketball team together. (They won the championship) We loved seeing this beautiful wedding and getting to hang out with some super awesome people there. 


Next was my sweet friend, Jess. 
Jess and I had a rocky start of a relationship but after going to Nicaragua together and being forced to sleep 3 inches apart, she has become one of my go to people. We went to New Orleans for Jess's bachelorette party. I somehow didn't get a decent picture with her at the wedding, but don't worry, she has plenty of embarrassing ones in her album. 






Sierra was next. 
Sierra & I met through Kelly in college. She came over for Pretty Little Liars marathons and was always our go-to bartender. haha Sierra has a heart of gold and the most beautiful baby boy in the entire world. 



Sarah, my funny friend, was next. 
Sarah & I met in college and instantly became friends. I had to miss Sarah's bachelorette party because I was in another wedding the same weekend but I did come up with her wedding hashtag, which basically became their life hashtag. (They use it on every picture) haha




Jordan was the last wedding of the year. 
I met Jordan my freshman year in college and made her be my friend. I love everything about Jordan. She has the sweetest spirit and the biggest heart. 




I am so excited for the weddings of 2016 and can't wait to see more of my friends marry their guys! I'm sure Michael is super pumped too. ;)

January Goals

Hello 2016!

What a year it has been. 2015 held a lot of memories I will cherish forever. I attended 7 different weddings, 2 bachelorette parties, and too many showers to count in between. I also got to be around when my best friend welcomed her first child into the world. 2015 was a great year for sure. However, some heartache came with this year as well. But let's not dwell on that. 

I am looking forward to what 2016 holds. So far, I have 2 weddings, 2 bachelorette parties and maybe some more babies! :) As I recap on the year, one thing sticks through it all and that is that we have a good good Father. 

January Goals: 


but seriously, 

1. Be intentional about having quiet time every day 
2. Be more positive at work 
3. The basic eat better and work out goal 

Cheers to 2016!
