I turned 24 on August 28. Crazy, right? Upon reflecting on this past year, a lot of growth and change has happened. Some of which was hard to deal with, but that’s life. I have felt really good lately and am excited to see what this year brings! I knew I wanted to go to California to visit my brother and sister-in-law.

My family and I got to the museum around…

I had an interesting mentality to this festival prior to the festival: I would only go if I won tickets. Luckily that’s what happened. On Saturday morning at 5am, myself and my Jeep headed out on a mini road trip for the weekend.…
