I can hardly believe that it's already November. Who's with me? It's almost Christmas! The other day I was coming up with a list of things to work on for this month. I ended up becoming even more overwhelmed than I already am and grew very stressed. From assignments, to choreography, to quality time with others, to plans for blogging and everything in between...I became very bogged down and discouraged. After sitting back for a moment and after I caught my breath, I decided that I would do a ...
Right Where You Are
Right where you are, you are enough. Yes - right where you are, you are enough. Often times I get caught up in wanting to be better and to excel at everything I do and am involved in. It always get to the point of a meltdown because I feel like I am not where I want to be at all. If I fail at one thing, I end up thinking about everything else that I am not the best at, as well. It seems to be a never ending cycle. What I am learning now is not necessarily contentment, but instead - acceptance ...

Fall Break
Last Thursday morning I woke up at 4:00 am to be on the road by 5:00 to head to Massachusetts for my fall break. It was a bit earlier than Michael and I both wanted to be up, but it was better than wasting the whole day away in the car. It was the most beautiful ride because we got to watch the sunrise and see the world when it is quiet. These photos were taken while we were driving through the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area. This is one of the long stretches I look forward to ...
Mornings. // A Grateful Heart Linkup
I have never been one who was fond of waking up early. Nope, I never had the desire to be a morning person. At all. If you had told me that one day I would enjoy mornings, I probably would've laughed. Well, here I am - enjoying mornings. It wasn't really my choice to become a morning person and for the longest time I denied that I was one. The whole waking up at 5:45 to be in work for 7:30 wasn't exactly my ideal way to start any day. It was hard to get into the routine of "real life" and to ...
Throwing It Back
Today I decided to do a fun throwback post since it's Thursday! Here are a variety of different photos of me from years past. Enjoy! My first dance competition number was a group jazz routine to the song He Loves Me, He Loves You Not. [Third grade] On the left is a picture of my uncle and I discussing my first band competition trip & on the left is my sister Bethany and I at picture day. It was my first year of pointe. [Sixth grade] I have been addicted to the internet since age 12 ...
