As I look back on 2016, it's hard to believe January and December were the same year. I started 2016, and ended it, in two very different ways. The amount of change I saw this year was precious, I learned so much about the world and my self. Today I want to share the highlights of my year. Welcome to my highlight real....
January
In January, I discovered a love of one of my now favorite hobbies. I spend time and time again outside when the snow kept us out of school. I spent hours capturing beautiful photos of my sister, and the scenery. When I picked up the camera I learned that beauty is truly all around us, and taking a photo keeps the beauty from fading.
February
This moth I got to experience one of the most magical places on the planet. (Harry Potter World at Universal) It took a bit of convincing but my parents let me go on a senior trip with the other 5 seniors on my competitive dance team. On this trip I got to bond with my team mates, eat some yummy food, reluctantly ride roller coasters, and make memories.
March
Im March, I realized that visiting the local shelter was one of the best things ever. I have always had an obsession with cats. Let me tell you, the cat ward at the humane society is a trap for any crazy cat lady. I wanted to take every single one home.
April
On April 24th, i turned 18. On this beautiful day two of the best people I know took a fun little road trip to Kentucky and had a photoshoot! Time spent with these two are the sweetest of times! Every picture we took has a great little story behind it. I am thankful for them!
May
May was a big month in terms of being a senior. Two huge events mark this month for me. The first being prom where I danced the night away with my bestie, and later that night discovered my hidden talent for karaoke. The second big event was graduation. On May 30th I walked across the stage and marked the official end of my High School career.
June
This month marked the end of my time at Acro Dance Express on team, and my time as a competitive dancer. This had my last ever recital, and a few weeks later became a national champion again. In June i learned how fast time passes Even though my time was up my mind keeps the best memories I ever made doing the thing I love most.
July
Sweet sweet summer time. July was a month spend relaxing. I was getting in a good last break before I started college. This photo is of one of the adventures me and my friends took, a drive in movie.
August
This month marked the start of college. 8 am classes, lots of studying, and a new chapter in life. Not going to lie, I had a pretty sweet study buddy.
This was by far the best month ever! I went through sorority recruitment, and found my home in Alpha Delta Pi. Now I share a special bond with my mother and sister.
October
The weather this much was amazing. The thing I enjoyed the most was having the opportunity to sit outside, study, and enjoy the beauty that surrounded me.
November
In November I was given the chance to serve the best God in the best way. Young Life work grew was not only a hight light of 2016, but a high light in my journey to Christ.
December 31st, 2016 was the last day of a year of change. 2016 was a true test of faith but provided me with so much good. I was ready to ring in the new year.
