Recent Happenings At Home

So I made it home! It's been a week since I got here and I can't tell you how much I love that it was 70 degrees outside today! Ahhhhhhh! Heaven!

Since I've been back I've done a lot of relaxing and hanging out. Nothing too crazy, but that's fine with me. I am perfectly content with reading a book all day or watching movies. It's my vacation, right?

Here are some of the shenanigans I've been up too with the fam bam.

(Alexis' face says it all..."No Mike, Crocs are not cool!" Haha we sent this to my neighbor since he loves his crocs!)

(After his last cross country meet. I'm sure he'll be glad when I'm gone haha he's not a fan of all the pictures.)

Lex and I then had to try our best "sorority girl" pose...
This was the result.

All in all it's a good week home! And the shenanigans will only continue.

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...

What Are You Scared of Today?

FACT: The smartest people that I know are the people who read. FACT: I am nowhere near being 'the smartest person' anyone knows. FACT: I am a work in progress. FACT: I can become so much more than I currently am. FACT: I am on a quest to read as much as I can for a whole year. FACT: This is exponentially harder than it sounds. _________________________________________________________________________________ I was scrolling through Facebook last week and I came across an article that caught my attention. Being on a "quest to read more" I clicked on the article and started to read a column written by a young lady regarding mental health, her experience, and what she longs to say to those 'dear friends' around her who are also struggling. It was a great read and I am glad that I took the time to read it, however there is one question that has stuck in the back of my mind: "What are you scared of today?" As I have continu...
