"Let It Go" - Frozen Soundtrack

We're within a couple of hours until the new year begins. If you think about how weird it is that we consider it a new year when really it's just a way that we measure time. Nothing really changes except for people's resolutions which have been proven to not last very long at all. But my mind is wandering.

Looking back at 2013 I couldn't be happier. My life motto is

  Live Life With No Regrets 

and I can honestly say that I can no regrets about how 2013 went. Of course there were good moments and bad moments, but I wouldn't change a thing. 

Highlights from this year:

- I took multiple multiple trips to Utah this year and California. I have the travel bug.
-DISNEYLAND - seriously one of the best parts of my year
-Tulip Fesitval at Thanksgiving Point Gardens (if you didn't know Tulips are my favorite flower I thought I'd might pass out of happiness)
-Helped assist in 23 adoptions this year through work. I LOVE ADOPTION. Seriously more than I could type. How many people can say that they help make eternal families? I mean seriously love it. I'm sad that I've closed that chapter but maybe I'll be able to jump back in later
-Got to go to the beach, because everyone needs a little beach in their life
-I baked a ton this year - my specialities are lemon bars and banana bread
-Directed my first church choir performance, The Christmas Program, and survived to tell the tale
-lots of movie preimiers... I love movies!
-Time spent with friends = priceless
-Moved to Utah! like 48 hours ago!

I mean really there are tons more moments that I could share but I'll save you the time. In short this year was AWESOME. Don't get me wrong it wasn't perfect but like I said I wouldn't change it. I'm sad to report I didn't complete my goal of blogging once a week. Hopefully this year I'll be better but I feel like Instagram is almost my new blog :)

For 2014:

Lots more traveling - hopefully I can expand past my trips to UT/CA/NV. I definitely need to get my passport-maybe this will be the year I go international! *wink wink Rachel cough cough*

Work on more photography. I never felt inspired to take pictures of rocks in Nevada but now I'm in a place that has seasons! With real nature that I can take pictures of! Maybe I can master the art of snow photography.

Find a job - I can honestly say that this will most definitely happen. Let's all pray sooner than later :)

And as always, NO regrets. 

Happy 2014!
