Bonfire.

Recently we celebrated my college roommate and dear friend's 23rd birthday!  I couldn't go down to Charlotte for her night on the town, but for her actually birthday she had a quiet bonfire at home with her family and friends.  Of course every bonfire must also come with smores, so we spent the night roasting marshmallows and telling silly stories about the 23 years of Jessi.  It was so nice to keep warm by the fire and laugh with old friends, while Abbey, the golden retriever, held my hand all night.  I'm so glad she had a great birthday with a cozy way to start off the year!

Graduation Day

          This weekend we celebrated the lovely Jessi Abernethy's graduation!  As she begins a new chapter in her life, I look back on my past year in this big world!  My life is nothing like I thought it would be, but I've finally accomplished the self development I've craved, and making positive changes in my life.   I've come a long way in a year.  But a night with old friends, who've been through the past five years with me,  was a night to cherish and a night of new beginnings.
