goodbye 2010. hello 2011.

This year has been full of so many adventures. 

I...

• finished my freshman year of college and hatched out of my cocoon to become a social butterfly :)
• tried out for a play and tried my hand at acting
• dated. A lot. and I learned a lot.
• made friends that will stay with me throughout my whole life.
• didn't go home for my first summer in my entire life.
• saw Old Faithful for the first time under a full moon.
• snuck up to the Historic crows nest TWICE! adrenaline rush. 
• drove to California 3 times.
• learned how to do a round-off back handspring
• was a bridesmaid for the first time.
• realized that I have so many things to do with my life and don't quite know how to fit it all in*

*which leads me to my new years resolutions

• sew something (a quilt, a shirt, a purse, a pillowcase..... something somewhat impressive).
• start Really getting into graphic design and learning more about it.

I feel like I should throw some don't drink soda, don't eat sweets, don't eat more than a handful of chips a day but that's not gonna happen so here's my alternative:

• run a half marathon.

Might not sound like an impressive list but for me to accomplish these things would be a dream come true. 

And like my dad always says, 

"A goal unwritten is just a dream"

(Thanks Rollie for the words of wisdom!)

So that's that. I am going to make my dreams come true this year...

I have a lot more dreams than this but they are more of personal goals that I keep to myself in my heart and just wait for and work for everyday...

NOW.

Prepare for a picture OVER LOOOOOAD!

I ended the year with a bang by taking a road trip to California with a bunch of close friends for Jennika & Sam's wedding!

Let me tell you something,
There's nothing to bring you closer to your friends than a road trip.
Maybe too close. Like, the brink of closeness if there is one. Bubbles do not exist.

Let me tell you something else.
 These two have more friends than anyone I know. 

It makes sense though, they are two of the friendliest and most fun people I know.

To sum it all up in a nutshell, the wedding was a blast! Everything about it was beautiful and fun just like Jenn and Sam!
So here you go. 

They're married!

The wedding party!

So to start off this new year

I have to tell all my friends that I'm so so lucky to have:

I love you!
