Blooming through experience. Memories through adventure.
Note: My ex and I are no longer together, but I wanted to keep this post up because I have great memories with friends and family during the week of my wedding. I haven’t changed any of the text. The beautiful pictures in this post are all credited to my wonderful photographer, Sydney Scott! She [...]
"Grace" is a word that means more to me than I can explain. Just the simple utterance of it can spark a world of emotion in my soul. Masterfully folded into a Bible verse or song lyric can bring tears to my eyes. When I was in high school, a second grader in the church [...]
From August 2017- January 2018, I was living, learning, and earning at the most magical place on earth.
