Samm’s Year In Review: 2014 Edition

Holy moly 2014, where did you go? Time truly does fly when you're having fun! I can't imagine life getting any better! 2014 was DEFINITELY my year!  While there were some negative things that happened this year, the overall vibe was VERY positive. Not only am I engaged to the man of my dreams, BUT so is my best friend AND my sister!!!

Here's my gorgeous sister after her emotional proposal at her baby shower!

Check out my bestie's GIANT rock!

Last but not least, the moment my amazing man got down on one knee.

Another huge thing that happened this year - my second nephew was born! I love him so much. Welcome to the world baby Sylus!

I also went on another trip of a lifetime! My love and I visited the beautiful Puerto Rico.

I FINALLY got the SUV I've always wanted!

More importantly, I gained a new family this year, all while getting closer to my own family. My fiance's family is so close, and they've shown me the importance of "family strong." I had lost touch with that after losing my Grandma (the glue of my family). I cannot thank my second family enough for reminding me.

I learned a lot this year, mostly about myself. I started believing in things that I never thought possible. When looking back at my 2013 in review and remembering how rough that year was for me, I'm so thankful that I stayed so optimistic.
