It’s my birthday! I’m reporting back to the bloge one year older with a little less collagen and a little more wise 😉 A quarter of a century isn’t old, but it definitely sounds like it! I wanted to think of a good way of reflecting on this past year without it sounding like I’m just bragging about myself, because this year had a lot of ups and downs. So I thought I’d limit it to my top 25 moments of this year. Some of these are amazingly happy things, and some not. It was overall my favorite year yet though. I told my friend recently that every year gets better, and I truly hope it stays like that !

That ended up being more a stream of consciousness than anything haha It’s funny that most of the things that came to mind were experiences or people -related. Yes, weddings and traveling cost money, but it was all about how it felt and who I was with. I hope 26 it filled with more friends, family, laughter, and experiences. 25, you were damn good, but thank you, next.
