recap.


happy tuesday!

i'm back in pa {insert sad face}
the visit home to nc was wonderful.
i def took advantage of the time i had to
spend with family and close friends.
i didn't take as many pictures as i would have liked to
because i was just so happy to be home :)

the mickey mouse birthday party was a hit.
lil' baby j turned one years old. awwww.


i had a much needed girls night with a
couple friends and met some new peeps.


of course, i spent A LOT of time with my bestie.
oh, how i've missed her.


going back home after not seeing my family and friends
def makes me appreciate them that much more.
truly, it does.

on another note...
this past weekend i closed another chapter in my life
that should have been closed a long time ago, but i chose to ignore all the signs.
eventually, my heart will heal and hopefully someday i'll be able to appreciate the good parts of my life he was involved in and the good times we shared, but until then i'm trying not to be bitter. i have learned a lot about myself because of this person. He's probably trying to save me from another heart ache and making room for the person i'm suppose to spend my life with. its truly unfortunate the way things have ended, but obviously God has other plans.

looks like you had an AMAZING time, such beauty and happiness in all of these photos. Lastly, so sorry about your breakup- no matter how "good" they are, they are ALWAYS hard. Let yourself grieve and then keep going, you'll be okay. You sound like you have a mature understanding of it now. Chin up!

you have a great attitude. God knows best. and if he felt this chapter in your life wasn't what you needed or deserved he stepped in to save his lovely child from any heart ache. his child only deserves the best :)
