THE RECAP: Favorite Moments of 2014!

Hello Everyone!!! I seriously cannot believe 2014 is over, I'm still in awe of how fast this year went. 2014 was a year full of so many things...I laughed harder than I ever laughed, made so many new friends, loved a little harder, lost a few friends along the way, bonded with my family, drank wayyy too much, cried some nights, took some personal time to reflect, watched the sunrise and sunset, checked a few boxes off my bucket list, stood strong when I needed to, learned how to be a great friend, smiled when necessary and most importantly I prayed through out it all. 2014 was full of so many moments, I decided to share them with you all, enjoy!
