I saw on girl meets life a wonderful idea. I have believed for some time now that we should all take a small break in our on the go lives to look around and be thankful for the beauty that is in on lives. With the difficult past four months, I think in order to move forward, stating what I'm grateful for is the best idea.
Getting emails from the universe every morning.
Hugs from my mother and brother.
Unexpected letters from friends....and writing them to those I love.
A strangers kindness and smiles, especially during difficult days.
A reemergence of summer.
Justin Timberlake tickets.
It's the little things in life; especially those things that make my day a little easier. I'm beyond thankful for the amazing people in my life. If I have learned anything recently, I am surrounded by beautiful people who love me unconditionally.

America the Beautiful.
I was sitting in an art class when the principal got on the intercom to tell us that two planes had hit the twin towers.
I didn't realize how these attacks would change my whole world. I didn't realize that my "family" would lose such a dear loved one whom they would remember at dances throughout the past twelve years. I didn't realize the huge impact these attacks would be to our whole lives.
I don't want this whole post to be about those vicious attacks, but rather a celebration of those wonderful souls who were lost on that September day. To the innocent souls of those people on the planes, in those buildings and all those amazing first responders.
Twelve years ago yesterday, we witnessed one of the most horrific acts against our country in recent history. We also witnessed the best in our society, how our country came together to support those who went through such extreme loss and tried to restore a beautiful city.
To all the people who lost a loved one twelve years ago yesterday, I want to envelop every one of you in a hug. And to those souls who were lost that day, rest peacefully; you are American heroes.
I love this Flag of Honor which was featured at the Michael Miller dance in 2011 with all the victims names on it. What a beautiful tribute.

I am a girl who has always loved music. Any experience I have can be improved one hundred times more with a good soundtrack.
Today was no exception.
Today I went to a small time country fair that got struck with a bit of lightening when they enlisted, at the time, a small time country band named Florida Georgia Line. This band went on to have a number one single that became a mega hit when that song linked up with Nelly and became one of the songs of the summer.
To say I love Florida Georgia Line's music is an understatement. It reminds me of the wonderful people I hang with on a regular basis. Such a happy little time, where I can sing at the top of my lungs and dance like a crazy woman.
Today was the perfect way to end the summer with my loves, seeing a great band, who absolutely ROCKED the show.
And the fact that it was a beautiful day out? I know I had my angel smiling at me while I danced my heart out.
