    Year In Review: 2015

    Even though I haven’t been blogging all year I still want to take the time to recap the last year – mostly to have as a reminder of what 2015 was to me. I can’t believe that I’ve been blogging for 6 months. I’m the type of person who starts things and then once the initial excitement has worn off I usually end up quitting whatever it was. I’m really happy that blogging wasn’t like that though and I hope that through 2016 God can use me to show others who He is. I’m also really excited to document Tommy and I’s first year of marriage together on this little blog too. But enough of that, let’s look back on 2015. (Btw I have a terrible memory and the way that I’m doing this is by going through pictures in my phone and whatever I remember from that I’m going to recap.)

    January

    In January we celebrated Tommy and I’s birthdays. Tommy’s is January 21st and mine is January 22nd. This year Tommy turned 21 and we went out with all of his and my friends to a bar called The Shepard and the Knucklehead and we had a ton of fun.

    I also bought my first dirt bike this month and rode it for the first time so that was really exciting too.

    February

    Tommy and I celebrated our first Valentine’s Day together. We actually went off roading down a small trail by my house and ended up getting stuck, which was funny. After we went back to Tommy’s house and he made me this awesome dinner. It was really sweet.

    I also took a trip to Florida in February. My grandma got really sick and had to have open heart surgery and they weren’t sure if she was going to make it. My whole family took a trip down and it turned out to be a nice little trip because my grandma’s surgery went really well and she recovered 🙂

    March

    I don’t think anything exciting happened in March. Tommy and I celebrated National Pancake Day though 🙂

    April

    In April, Tommy and I attended Supercross for the first time, which was so fun. We watched most of the season on tv so it was really cool getting to see it in person.

    It also started getting warmer out and I started to get to ride my dirt bike and started to really like it. I think I went for my first real ride with Tommy this month also.

    May

    I graduated college in May! My cousin and I both graduated from the same college actually with the same major (Psychology with a minor in Sociology). It was so fun to get to share this experience with her by my side.

    Tommy also got to do his first race in May! This was honestly so much fun, getting to see him do something he’s always wanted to do and it was so special getting to be apart of it. We’re really excited for the next season of races to start and getting to go to more of them this year.

    June

    June was kind of a big month. I took a trip to visit my cousins in Maryland. It was my twin cousins 2nd birthday so that was really fun. We also celebrated my brother graduating from high school by going out to eat and to a homemade ice cream place. Lastly, June was the month I wrote my first blog post. You can view that here, in case you’re interested. It’s still one of my favs.

    This is getting quite long so I think I’ll stop here for now and I’ll finish some time during the week. I can’t believe how much has happened even in the first part of 2015. I can’t wait to recap the second half!
