30 Day Photo Challenge - Day 7

 

Day 07 - A picture of someone who inspires you.

I picked my mom for someone who inspires me.She is always loving, encouraging, and supporting me. She taught to never give up. After everything our family has been thru, she truly is out backbone and I don't know where I would be in my life without her.

HAPPY HOUSEKEEPING!!!! AKA Happy Birthday and Happy Holidays!

 

Happy Birthday to meeeeeeeeee!!!!!!

Oh yes Merry Christmas and Happy New Year as well. haha. 

 

I celebrated my birthday the weekend before I left for Europe. I have spent so many past birthday stressed and worrying about how things would pan out for a big bash. So this year I decided to have a small gathering with close friends and family for dinner, then hit boystown bars with my best friend. And a couple of friends from high school came out as well. It was a great night! All I wanted was to spend it with my girls night crew and best friend. Simple request. I put a few pictures below. Thank you to all who came out. It meant the world to me :D

A group picture at Vines, a bar and resturant in Wrigleyville.

 

Me and Eric, I've known him since Freshman year at Kendall. 

Me and Byron. I can't believe we've known each other for like 4 years now. EEK! We did take normal pictures, but this one says it all. Seriously. 

At Spin (I don't know the guy to the right. lol. Well I said a few words, that was it. He came to meet my friend.)

After I had my 30 second freak out of being ditched. Thank you miscommunication. We saw this poster for Kit Kat, then we decided to smile like this drag queen. hahaha!!!!

And Happy Housekeeping? You HAD to be there!!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

So like me to write this and not actually post it on Thanksgiving. 

I starting thinking, what am I thankful for? It's been an exhausting year so far. Many highs and many lows. 

I'm incredible lucky to have such an amazing family. A brother who I'm super duper proud of and who has come very far recently. A mother who always has my back and a pillar of support in whatever endeavor I'm into at the moment. And the best aunts I could ask for.

A best friend (who has earned the title of family) and who has stuck with me for years and made me laugh at the most important moments.

Friends whom I've known since I was a kid and although I don't see them much in our busy lives I'm glad they are still in mine. 

And Peyton who is the love of my life!

What is everybody thankful for?

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I hope ya'll have a great holiday and enjoy the massive amounts of food.
