a year to celebrate

2011 was a great year. It was wonderfully busy and excitingly wonderful. It was full of surprises, love, and so many new things.

Here's the recap:
  • In January I discovered Apple Cake and went skiing for the 1st time in about 10 years.
  • In February I was a camp counselor at Snow Camp with ODBC and cooked Pad Thai for the 1st time.
  • In March God taught me a lot about faith and trusting in Him for the future.
  • In April God brought me to Grace Road church and I made this Clementine Cake!
  • In May I bought a bike and started to bike to work!
  • In June I spent a few weeks at Locust Hill preparing for and managing the Expo tent during the LPGA! woah
  • In July I celebrated 6 years with Christ and on the very same day I met this man: 





















  • In August I went to Raleigh to visit my brother, paid off my car, and played tennis under the stars!
  • In September I started dating that man officially and became busier than I've ever been before <3
  • In October we went to NYC for a day and took a road trip to my favorite little town for a dear friends wedding.
  • In November we stuffed our weekends with events and enjoyed Thanksgiving with family.
  • in December we went to NYC on a rainy day, decorated for Christmas, celebrated my 27th birthday, and enjoyed the holidays immensely.
  • It was the year I took a huge undertaking at work (read: managed the sponsor accounts and the Expo for the LPGA), rediscovered my love of photography, made some incredible new friends, and learned a lot about myself in Christ!
  • And as I said... it was the year I met this man:


2012 will be a year of great things too:
Growing deeper in Christ.
Learning to make sushi.
And falling more in love with this life God has given me.
