New Semester, New year, New things!

I am so extremely excited to tell you all about all the things I will be doing this semester!! I love trying new things (even though those things sometimes make me nervous) but I find that I enjoy life so much more when I take the plunge and try things I have never tried before! So here are some of the new things I will be trying this semester!

Firstly, one of my Christmas presents was indoor skydiving! I am crazy excited to get a chance to feel that ultimate thrill (without that fear of death in the back of my mind) haha

School is gonna be more challenging this semester as well. My classes include BIO 182, Anatomy, English 102, Humanities, and Health and Wellness. My Bio class is at a wonderful 7:30 in the morning -.- yeahhhh.... but my teachers all seem to expect a lot out of their students so it looks as though I will be working hard in all my classes.

I also just recently began my new job at the Landmark and so far it is a wonderful place to work! It is not very difficult and has a wonderful atmosphere! I enjoy learning this new job and am looking forward to being trained as a waitress in the future!

I will also be assisting Allison with guard this DRRT season! I am so excited to get back into guard, I have missed it so much!!

And if you are worried that I won't have enough time to blog and take photographs you are wrong! I will also be photographing the children's ministry at my church and will be posting the adorable photos right here :) I will try to blog as much as possible but bear with me if I don't for a period of time!

I cannot wait to share all of my new experiences with you!!

Christmas! (Finally!!)

Hey guys!! Sorry it took forever to put up my Christmas pictures but I have been quite busy! Well over all I really had an amazing Christmas and a wonderful New Years as well :) It has been very nice to spend some time with my family! Enjoy!

Here is our Christmas Eve carnage, not as bad as previous years!

Happy New Years!!

WOW it is 2012! As you age time starts going by faster, I swear it really does!! This year I didn't make any New Years resolutions, partly because when I set difficult ones, I don't really achieve them! I'd rather continue working on what I have already been striving for. I have been doing pretty good at going to the gym at least three times a week (excluding these last couple holiday weeks). I also have been working on strengthening my relationship with God! I have been trying to do Bible reading and prayer every morning and I really enjoy that special time each day. I will also continue to work hard in school, once the new semester starts up.

On another note, I had a wonderful New Years! My uncle and three of his kids (my cousins) came over to our house and we had a blast! It was a night full of Twister, Just Dance, Food, Fireworks, and lots of CAFFEINE! I had two work a double Friday and Saturday, so I am a bit tired to say the least haha :) It was so cute to see my little cousin, Sophia, so enraptured in the fireworks :) haha she absolutely loved them and way a bit too fearless when it came to lighting them!

Another wonderful thing about this day is that it is my three month with Michael :) He is an incredibly wonderful boyfriend and I am sooooo blessed to have him in my life <3 He is taking me on the second part of my Christmas present tomorrow and I am very excited! (even though I don't know what it is!)

Happy New Years everyone! I hope that your 2012 will be full of happiness and blessings :)
