San Diego: Part Two!

 


 Tuesday we spent the day at Sea World! Completely awesome! We went to all the shows and saw all the animals and it was just great! Such a nice day! We even got to see Shamu twice! We were just lucky ducks!:)
Wednesday we got up and went shopping at the mall next to our hotel. (You can best believe we went to Bloomingdale's and gawked at how expensive things are there!) After that we went to the store, came back and ate lunch, and then met up with the guys and headed to Coronado Island. This very easily could have been my favorite part of the whole trip!  It was so much fun and SO NICE AND WARM! The beach was incredible! We went and set up a spot and then headed out to the ocean looking for shells and pretty much anything else we could find. After doing that for a while we headed back to the towels. Christian found a hermit crab and it was so hilarious to see him freak out about it. After an hour or two there we packed things up and headed to find something for dinner. We walked the streets of Coronado which was also so much fun, and we found a way cool hot dog place where we all ate dinner. After dinner we did a little more exploring of the shops and such, and then headed back to the beach! Laid out for a while more, and then took pictures in the ocean before heading back to our hotel so that us girls could change. We then headed to Mission Beach for a bon fire that Matt's buddies from school were having. While we waited for everyone else to get there we walked the pier and went into shops and that was fun. Then we stumbled upon this little Mexican Food Place and the boy's and I ate some delicious fish tacos on the beach (I was in heaven!) While Nan gave Jake a tattoo half sleeve with temporary tattoos haha! We got there and it wasn't really my scene (or anyone's really, except Matt...and that's totally fine.) We started playing this game in the ocean where we would run out and chase the tide (trying to get as far as we could without getting wet) and then run away when the waves came crashing back! It was so much fun and I have no clue why haha! Until Nan lost her phone in the ocean...then that stopped. Jake had a funeral for her phone, which was hilarious, and then we headed back to the hotel, got cleaned up, and went to bed. Overall it was just a good day!

I Know I Have Dreams

It's been a while since I have written anything on here. And I know it's been a while. I know that the last few weeks have been crazy, and that that is part of it. But I also know that I have sat down to write here more times than I would care to admit. I know that I have a million thoughts running around in my head. I know that I want to figure out how to let the words out and have them make sense. I know I have all these ideas about what I want to do with my life, what I want to accomplish, and who I want to become, and yet I lack the knowledge of how to get there. I know I have dreams. I know I want to be somebody that people can look up too someday. I know what I love. I know I have to make choices. I know that I ramble. A lot. I know a lot of things. Maybe I will talk about everything. Maybe I will save a post or two for another day. I know that this post is going to be long.  I know that this post may be very varied when it comes to topics. I know that n...

How True This Is

I Resolve To Continue

This is the time of year when we evaluate our lives. We look at the last 364 days and ponder on our struggles and our triumphs. We look at the person we have become over the last 12 months and we plan to do better in the coming 12. This is the time of year we are dedicated to making a change, and as I sit here thinking back to this time exactly 365 days ago, I am astounded at how far I have come. Almost ashamed of the person I was then and truly proud of the person I am now. For one of the first times in my life I can say that I can see myself becoming the person I want to become. In the last year I have felt sorrow and defeat and loneliness. I have faced struggles and heartache and frustrations. But I have also felt peace. I have felt joy and happiness and love. I set goals and I achieved them. I have had experiences that have taught me so many valuable lessons, and I have met people who have changed me forever. And I am so grateful. And so as we finish out this awfully beautiful year...
