Top 14 of 2014


I love this blog for many reasons, but one of the best ones is getting to look back on the entire year and seeing everything that I’ve done! I did a look back last year and wanted to do it again with 14 of my top moments from 2014!! 




14// Running in 3 races this year, two more than my goal for 2014!! 


13//Flexing my interior design muscle and making our our apartment feel like home


12// Legally changing my name and finally having a middle name – monogramming commenced!


11//Taking part in two very cool group fitness exercise classes in Boston  

Yoga at Fenway Park

 Pilates in a park


10// Celebrating one year at my job and in my role and feeling 100% fulfilled




9//Making so many incredible friends from blogging and feeling like I have a friend in every state…you guys also have a personal tour guide for any trips to Boston you may have!! 




8//Seeing one of my best friends get married and going to Charleston for the first time


7//Making a surprise trip to Florida with my sister to celebrate our mom’s birthday and see our grandmothers!


6//Paying my credit card off in full…this was probably the best personal accomplishment of 2014!!




5//Going back to the University of Florida 5 years after graduating, seeing Amanda & Pamela and witnessing a Gator win…one of the only ones of the season! HA! 


4//Growing this little blog of mine and being able to start writing for a wedding blog! 




3// Getting my dream business off the ground with my first wedding client signed and so much more to come in 2015…lots to share with you in the next few months! 




2// Seeing the Eiffel Tower in all her glory and crossing that off my Bucket List


1// Celebrating one year of marriage with my best friend!! 




It’s been an amazing year and I’m so excited to see what 2015 has in store!! What was your top moment of 2014? 




P.S. If you like to look at pretty blingy rings – check out my post on Wedding Party from yesterday!! You know since it’s engagement season and all!

    I totally agree one of the best reasons for having a blog is to be able to document all that you've done. I love going back and reading old posts even if I cringe about what I wrote! So happy to have "met" you through blogging!
