Last Winter Break

As I sit here, at my parent's house, on the last night of my 2 week winter vacation, I can't help but think of how blessed I am. It has been a wonderful last winter break! I honestly have zero room to complain.

Here's a brief rundown of these past 2 weeks:

• I turned 20 and got to celebrate with my family here at home as well as with the girls from work.

• I watched my sister graduate from college.

• My entire family got together to celebrate the holidays together. My brother brought his sweet girlfriend home with him so we could get to know her better.

• I got to see my cousins whom I haven't seen in 2 years.

• I got to spend some much needed time with my closest 2 friends from high school.

• I worshiped alongside my brothers and sisters at Kirkwood.

• I spent a day with Lori, an amazing woman who has played a huge role in making me into the person I am today, and her sweet (and adorable) children.

• I was surrounded by my family 24/7, something I crave and am deprived of while away at school.

As I finish packing my things up to head back to school tomorrow, I fight back the tears with the wonderful memories of this break.

I can't imagine a better way to have spent my last winter break!
