14 in '14

I absolutely love the end of the year.  I love to look back on what a fabulous year it has been and look forward to a new year with a fresh start and a new outlook on life.

I know everyone says that 'this year was the best year ever!'  But it always seems so true!  Every year just gets better and better!

These are in no particular order whatsoever.  It was so hard to rank them that I've just put them in order that they happened!

I'm linking up with Miss Kindergarten for her Fourteen in '14 link-up!

#1

I began grad school!  I'm working on my Masters in Instructional Technology through Virginia Tech!

#2

I turned 25.  And got these crazy cards from my Dad.

Spent lots of time and money fixing up the house!  Even though I bought my house toward the end of 2013, this was my first full year in my own house!!

These cars (and some more you can't see) all came to visit me and have lunch!  I hosted our family's Christmas lunch this year!! 

#14

And (even though it hasn't happened yet...), I'll be celebrating New Years Eve and ringing in the new year..on a boat..in the middle of the ocean!  Hello Bahamas!

It's been an incredible year!  Definitely the year of travel!  There were so many more wonderful and amazing things that happened this year - but these are fourteen of the highlights from the year.

Dear 2015 - I challenge you to beat 2014!
