Here's To A Year To Remember!

2013 was definitely a year to remember! I am so thankful for all I learned, all I went through, and all I gained. It was truly a memorable year! Every year on Christmas Eve as we sit around the tree my mom asks us what our most memorable thing was in the last year. That is the most difficult question you could ever ask, I can never think of just one thing that made an impact on me in the past year because every thing big and small make a difference in my growth, and to me those are always the most memorable things. 

As I was trying to think of how I could go about recapping the last year I refused to do a flipagram, let's admit it those are a little overused and annoying, so I thought I would choose a picture from each month and recap a little! This was much harder than I thought it would be to choose just ONE picture; there were so many things that happened that I wanted to include. But nonetheless here is a glimpse into the last twelve months of my life! 

We started the year off right with some sparkling cider and confetti poppers! I love this family of mine! 

I was in Katelyn's wedding! Katelyn has become one of my best friends! It's so amazing to see how close you can come to someone in such a short amount of time. Even though she is married we are still closer than ever, and I love this girl with all my heart! 

Of course my birthday was the most exciting thing for me in March, you can't blame me! I officially graduated from the teenage years! But as Dakota and I always say, we are still a couple of kids at heart! That statement couldn't be more true!

I got to move home in April! That is one of the best months, it is so nice to be done with school and have no real responsibility for a while! Holli is and always will be my best friend! She is always up for an adventure with me! Picnics in our secret spot never got old! :]

Dakota and I went to Lagoon! This was definitely a day full of memories! Who knew an awful head cold and a thrown out back could make for so much fun! 

In June I did something I never thought I would do. Call me a wimp but this catapult thing was serious and it took me a good hour to get talked into it! But in the end I am so glad I did it! It was sure an adrenaline rush! 

July was quite the month! There was so much that happened but I think Holli's arm takes the prize! Holli's one tough chick, that's all I can say! 

We painted the cabin in August! I can't say I loved it but it really made some great memories and it felt good to do something that I know Grandma B. would have been so appreciative of! We all use it so why not help out! 

While this was an ongoing thing for the entire Summer I thought September was an appropriate month to place these cute kids in! These girls were definitely a highlight of my Summer! Lux and Sayde always gave me a good laugh. Summer days were good to me! 

Becca! My semester would have been dead without her! She was amazing at makeup and made me a deer for Halloween! She is such a great friend! Can't believe I won't see her for an entire year! :[

One of my most favorite months so far! Erica came home just in time for Thanksgiving! 5BG (5 Browning Girls') are back together! 

Christmas concerts are the best way to get into the Christmas spirit! Especially when your with great friends!

With every year comes new experiences. New trials, new excitement, new devastation, and new memories. It's all in our perception. If we choose to see new experiences as trying times then of course that is what they will be. If we promise and sincerely try to make the best of it, things will always work out! And if I have one New Year resolution that will be it! (Cue cliche saying) Goodbye 2013 hello 2014!
