It’s amazing how fast a year goes by even though at times it seems to drag. Looking back at 2016 I saw many achievements and changes that I didn’t realize was happening. I probably went through the most change this year and experienced the most as well. I was able to get  healthy and lose weight to the point where I felt comfortable with myself. I saw my rescue reach new heights and I met many amazing new people along the way. I got to explore new places in the bay, challenged myself and stepped out of my comfort zone. Of course, there were the “bad” times as well but all in all it was overshadowed by all the good that happened this year. Bring it on 2017, I am so ready for what this upcoming year is going to bring! Heres a quick look back at a few other adventures in 2016.

Enjoyed a last minute weekend trip to Monterey with a friend and her wonderful family. What a wonderful break to a otherwise hectic week. I love the sweet environment and seeing two old couples still so much in love. Overall a very relaxing weekend break!

Weekend road trip on the Loneliest Road in America, miles and miles of nothing but the open road and good company!

Exploring San Francisco with a new photography friend, such a beautiful city!

Weekend Vegas trip with family, although it was way too short to really truly experience Vegas I was glad to be able to have some time off!
