What a year! I knew there were several big events that took place in our lives this year, but looking through old photos throughout the year, I realized that some pretty awesome small stuff took place too. We added another dog to our home, I started my teaching career, we went on 3 trips this summer, and had lots of celebrations. Instead of just sharing the big stuff, I want to celebrate all that took place throughout 2015. Last year around this time I posted highlights of 2014, and tried to share that even with having a heartache for things I desired, I could see how God was blessing many different areas of my life. This year was no different, and I feel like it was a HUGE blessing of a year. I never want to take for granted what I have been given, so follow along as I share the highlights of 2015. :)
