Random ramblings of playing catch-up!

I've been contemplating for weeks really what my next blog post was going to be about. I have a million ideas and things I want to be able to look back and remember as well. So here's is a photo dump of the last month's amazing ness!

First of all, I got to throw two of my beautiful friends a gender reveal party! I knew for 5 whole days before anyone else. Keeping that secret from my best friend was hard, but the look on her face was priceless. This was one of the happiest days of 2014! Here are a few more pictures from that.....

Not much longer a sweet and precious little girl joined the family of Aunt Jena! Here is my newest and only niece thus far- 

Emma stole my heart in a matter of seconds! She is adorable and I even got to get in more snuggles last week! 

We managed to (well almost) managed to surprise Heather with birthday dinner last weekend!

Even had a little snow in the south. 

Overall it's been a less busy few weeks with a lot of fun things happening and new recipes being tried! Check out these things I've been whipping up:

Trying new recipes is one of my favorite things to do. 

Over the last month a lot has happened and even changed for me. Things and people too are constantly coming and going. These are things that I can't control. However I can control how I react and how I let these things effect me, my attitude and what comes next. My best friend and sister Heather posted an awesome blog recently about finding the positive. It really made me think and has allowed me to put forth a greater effort in finding the positive and pushing away the negative thoughts as much as possible! 

Todays good: an awesome work with two people I adore and who help me reach my goals more than they will ever know!
