I’m Kristen. Welcome to All In My Twenties, my place to pour my little heart out on the daily!! This is the world just as I see it. Why dont you kick up your feet and stay awhile?!
This post has come to be my favorite of the year.
This is my THIRD blog post reviewing the previous year in photos and I LOVE them all.
Its so AMAZING to be able to look back over the course of a year and see what all you experienced and where life took you.
This year has been SO amazing in so many ways!
And now we can recap!
Enjoy!
JANUARY
We spent the first week of 2012 at the Country Music Festival in Steamboat, Colorado! Great music, great friends and skiing = SO MUCH FUN!! Perfect way to start the New Year!
Following our ski trip, we moved Christopher to Dallas to start his new job!! Settling in and experiencing Dallas was so nice!
FEBRUARY
I spent the weekend prom dress shopping with my sweet cousin Abby! I still cant believe shes in college! Makes me feel SO old!
We spent Valentines Day weekend in Dallas enjoying time together and attended a country concert.
We enjoyed the Houston Rodeo Cookoff and Mrs. Tessa's Birthday!
MARCH
We celebrated our first anniversary together. Its crazy how fast time flies!
We attended our first couples shower of the year at Matt and Tessa's wedding shower.
APRIL
I rode my bicycle from Houston to Austin in 2 days for the MS150. Most exhausting, amazing, liberating experience of MY LIFE!
We went to Cabo for vacation with our good friends Alicia and Nick.
MAY
I attended Tessa's bachelorette party in Dallas and celebrated her last big fling before the ring!!
We ventured to Galveston, Texas for Tessa and Matt's destination wedding!!
I spent the weekend with good friends at the beach for Memorial Day!
JUNE
June was a month for weddings. We were either showering, bachlor/etteing or wedding!
First up was the Sparks Wedding!! Super FUN destination wedding a Moon River Ranch outside of Waco, Texas.
Next was the Rose Wedding in here in Houston.
JULY
We celebrated the 4th at the Frio River with best friends.I met Mrs. Shay and fell in love for life!
We missed these two more than words can explain. Oh and Billy too! ;)
And I completed my first DIY wineglasses for the ladies!
AUGUST
We celebrated sweet baby Reesie's first birthday!!
I cohosted my first link up series INSPIRE ME HEALTHY with Mrs. Raven and lost 11lbs.
Christopher and I went to the Bahamas for a week!
SEPTEMBER
We spent some time with my family at the lakehouse for my sweet nieces birthday.
We spent some time cheering on the Texans and I got my first Texans shirt. (STILL A COWBOYS FAN TIL I DIE!!!!)
OCTOBER
Baby Brooklynn finally made her appearance and my best friend Lou became a Mommy!!
I started a new job and said goodbye to DOF Subsea.
I made my very first homemade Halloween costume! A pegacorn!
NOVEMBER
I spent 10 days in Sydney, Australia with Mrs. Carol! Such an amazing trip and I was SO happy to spend it with my mother! I think every girl should experience at least ONE Mother/Daughter vacation as an adult!
I turned 27!!
DECEMBER
2012 has been AMAZING.
I feel like my years keep getting better and I have no doubt that 2013 will be even better!
Obviously tough times are present throughout but I choose to focus on the good! To celebrate the successes and cherish the happy moments!! I think it makes for a happier soul!
All in all, I wouldnt change a thing!
So Heres to 2013!!!
I hope all of you have an amazing New Year's Eve and that 2013 is the best one YET!!
