2019 Year Review

This has been a pretty amazing year. I love looking back at what I've done in the past year and looking forward to what's to come.


This Year I...


-Traveled to Chicago with Matthew
We both were sick but we made some amazing memories, getting to be in the Willis building after dark, eating lots of pizza, exploring all over town and going to Medieval Times!























-Opened an Etsy store
Which I haven't done well with updates but I have made a couple of sales which just blows me away!

-Bought a new camera
It's a little silly how much I enjoy it.















-Made 3 trips to Branson for much needed chill time
It's Matt and I's go-to place when we need to just not worry about anything, even if it's only for a day or two.



























 

 
-Took a big 2 week long trip to Yellowstone with several family members!
While there I saw a moose, a bear, explored a ghost town, saw breathtaking scenery, rambled through 2 national parks, and made life-long memories with some awesome people. Truly a once in a lifetime trip.





























































































-Matthew and I got engaged!!
Definitely the biggest, scariest, and most exciting thing to happen. This coming year has lots in store for us and we're excited to plan our life together.



















-Was a vendor at the Oddities and Curiosities Expo show
I had attended the year previous and knew it was something I wanted to get involved in. It was so lovely to hear all the positive comments and it felt great to jump into something new even though it was a little scary and could have potentially have been financially unwise.


























-Found a new church home
This was a must, it's hard to be without one for an extended time.



This year has been full of blessings, firsts, and lots of traveling. This coming year is already looking busy and I'm excited for it.

January Review 2020

This month I... - Was a bridesmaid in my friend Becca's wedding! I'm honored to have been present for the start of their new life together. -Have been gearing up for another Oddities show in Tulsa. It's next month, so I'll be posting about it more at the end of February. But here's a couple things I've been working on! -Got a new friend for the collection. Meet Rufus, the derpy bobcat. Matt and I drove an hour to get him and he now sits proudly on the piano until we can potentially find a more suitable place. Matt pets him and tells him he's pretty. Apart from lots of work and lots of lazy days when we can get them, this month has flown by with not a lot of fanfare. I think we've recovered from the holidays and have begun preparations for the coming months. Between making lots of new bug things and wedding planning, I keep my mind busy.

October 2019 Review

You guys! This month went by so quick! And since we got snow at the end of the month, it felt more like winter than fall. October, while busy, was a little more sedate, settling into work rhythms and taking some down time. This month I... -Turned 30 I celebrated with a little get together with friends indulging in pizza, apple pie, and games, I believe a pretty good time was had by all. I hope this year will be one of the best yet, I have lots planned and hope I don't let it overwhelm me, it's all about balance and growth.  - Settled into a new church home Matt and I have been visiting a new church for several months now and we both feel like we're very welcomed and are excited to be part of this new community and beginnings of new friendships. - Hit up some amazing estate sales Seriously, it's one of our new favorite pastimes. We went to a sale in Atchison, MO, in a house built in the 1890's. We both fell in love with the house! So much charac...
