following grace

My 18th was one for the books.   I mean I know being legal is fun, but I think the fun I had was a whole new level.   Since I went home for my birthday the night before a bunch of my fav girls from my hall, and Abby went to dinner. We had such a blast!   And on my actual birthday my alarm woke me up with this picture. Pretty stinkin cute, I think. ;)   My phone had been blowing up for hours, and I saw one of my kinders from last year's mom had posted a picture and tagged me, so this was the first thing I saw upon waking up. Seriously, if that doesn't make you crack a smile, you're crazy. It made my entire day!   I started my day off by having my fav kind of pop-tart. Because whats a birthday without fun breakfast? I picked my outfit out a week in advance, for those of you that know me, this is nothing new. ;)   I went to my favorite class, and took a test.   and then came to the office to get my cake...

So in honor, of me turning 18 tomorrow.. here are my top 17 moments of year 17. They're in no special order, completely random. :)   17. Moving and coming back to my home church.     Coming back to my home town and being able to worship and be back with the people I love so dear, was quite possibly amazing and a key factor in my 17th year.   16. Touring colleges   touring schools was so much fun and made me feel so grown up. But hilariously, the schools I toured I didn't end up at.   15. Meeting my BFF for the first time.   Oh what a wonderful experience. After 2 years of talking via text and internet. I finally got to hug and see my BFF face to face.   14. My Mika   moving back and having my Mika there to teach me and do life with me. Was amazing. I so love her and am so thankful she was there to support me through my Senior Year.   13. IT Christmas Program   ...
