Where did 2015 go?! I feel like it flew by and I'm pretty excited about it! 2015 was an interesting year for me. I had some really amazing times, along with my fair share of hard times. Instead of dwelling on the negative times of 2015, I want to talk about the highlights of this year!
First things first - I started my blog! Granted, it wasn't until the middle of the year, but this year none the less. I can honestly say I have thoroughly enjoyed blogging. I was definitely worried (as I'm sure all bloggers and aspiring bloggers feel) whether or not I would even like doing it, be able to keep it up consistently, if people would even take the time to look at my posts, how personal I should be, etc., etc., but so far, so good! I have high hopes for 2016 but like most good things - it takes time and work. If there's one thing I've learned from being a very new "blogger" - do it because you love it, or else it will show.
Here's a look back at some of my favorite posts of 2015!
Scallops and Pearls - my first post!
Second - I moved from Georgia to Tennessee! This one was definitely a surprise, while also a long time coming. My parents have always wanted to retire to Tennessee, but were just unsure of the real possibility. Lots and lots of prayer, thought, and house hunting were involved in making this decision and I think we (they) made the right one. My brother and I had recently graduated from college when they sold the house in Georgia and bought one in Tennessee, so I decided to come along for the ride and eventually my brother did, too. So, we're all up here together and I'm so thankful for that. I do miss Georgia a lot more than I thought I would. I left a small town that I grew up in my entire life (you know, one of those towns you get so sick of but always seem to keep going back to?...hello country song). I left some wonderful friends and family and everything that was familiar to me. As hard as it is to leave the only thing you've only ever known, it's so exciting to do something new! I've loved finding my 'favorites' here in TN and make new friends and essentially start my life whether I end up staying here or not.
Third - I got to celebrate two beautiful friends marry their sweethearts!

Fourth - I got a job. Like an "after college job." (yikes!) It's not my dream job, but it's a job and a start. Can't wait to see what the future holds!
Fifth - My brother graduated from UGA! Go Dawgs!
Still so proud of you, John.
I am so excited for what 2016 has to hold. I have so many goals I want to pursue and accomplish. I am definitely one of those "New Years resolutioners" and I'm proud of it! I love having goals and things I can check off my list.
Here's to 2016!
What are some of your New Years resolutions?
Stay sunny,
Katie
