The Past Year

When I first started my blog, I had every intention of making this a regular thing. Kind of like when you were a little girl (if you're a girl) and you started keeping a diary with every intention to write every single day about your life happenings, but life gets in the way and it becomes less and less important to write. Since it has been over a year since I have wrote, it's slightly obvious that life got in the way of me blogging. SO, here I am hoping to get this thing going again. To review this CRAZY year that I have had:

I got engaged October 13, 2012. I turned 23 years old. Christmas happened. New years happened. I got a new job (well same basic job, just at a different bank). I got in a car accident (nothing too serious). My sister graduated High School. I almost graduated college (I walked, but am finishing my last class this semester). I became an alumna of Gamma Phi Beta. My mom and step dad got divorced. I GOT MARRIED ON JUNE 1, 2013!!! I went on the most amazing honeymoon ever. I bought a car. My step son started 1st grade. I started my last semester of college. One of my best friends got engaged. Several other friends have gotten engaged as well.

I am so thankful that God has blessed me so tremendously with this beautiful little life of mine. I have a wonderful, amazing, godly husband who loves me more than I could have ever dreamed someone could. I have an awesome step son who I love more than I ever thought I could love a child that was not my own. I am blessed beyond measure, and I never want to take any of it for granted. Despite some of the negative things that have happened this year, this past year has been the best year of my life so far. I know that God has so much more in store for me and my family, and I hope and pray that we take the time we need to to prepare ourselves for whatever is coming our way.
