Oh, 2014! You were sweet.
I’ve spent the last few days collecting photos for this post — because this is a year I want to remember, a year I won’t soon forget. I’ve always been a LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST type and this year was no different. We saw the mountains, the cities, the sea. We traveled here and there. We saw friends and family. Visited old places and brand new. This year was GOOD.
In 2014 I picked the word “shine” to focus on throughout the year. I thought about that word constantly and how I wanted to live it. I want to feel the good in every day, I want to take a look around me— to appreciate and notice. I want to savor what I have and enjoy it.
Looking back, I can’t help but smile at how nice it all was (and just keeps getting better)…
We skied in the White Mountains
My high school friends visited Boston
We traveled to Nantucket, Cape Cod, and Martha’s Vineyard
We flew to the West Coast
San Francisco
Big Sur
Seattle
A week full of MAGIC in my memory forever.
We moved! And it is so cozy and good.
Friends, friends, friends.
FAMILY and more friends.

On New Year’s Eve Zan got down on one knee in the Public Garden and asked me to marry him.
The happiest surprise and I said YES.

Oh yes, did this year ever shine.

And the best is yet to come! 2015 will be your year! Xoxo
I have been loving all of these photo heavy posts of everyone’s year and yours is no exception! Great photos, of course and a very big CONGRATULATIONS to you and Zan! Sounds like 2015 will be full of even more adventure and love:)

What a fun year you had! I loved seeing some photos that you hadn’t shared before. You are so freakin adorable, and your smile is just so JOYFUL. And I’m so happy with that last photo!! What a great way to end 2014!! :) :)
p.s. the wedding you went to where the bride is in Converse – I totally recognize the girl the background (I’m 99% positive it’s her)! Meredith and I went to college together! Not sure if you know her/met her at the wedding or not, but still crazy hilarious you guys were at the same wedding!
The most beautiful year yet! So happy for you and everything that’s happened this year! CHEERS to a bigger and better 2015!
SO SO SO GOOD. You certainly did shine in 2014 and I wish you all the best in 2015!!!
