My Year.

It's been a year. Not since I've last blog, surprisingly, but since I graduated from college.

Here are a few things I did this year. 

I moved to Provo and got my own room for pretty much the first time in my whole life. 

I taught Gemma how to make fish lips. 

I solidified my personal photography style.

I learned that being my own boss is far more rewarding than working for anyone else. And also way more work and dedication. 

I made friendships that will last a lifetime. 

I watched the whole series of Gilmore Girls while editing shoots. 

I kept in contact with my closest friends from college and saw them fairly regularly. 

I trespassed more times than I can count. 

I got a snap chat. And mostly used it at 2am with Lindy.

I learned how to sew a lot better and made some pretty curtains and lots of aprons...

I decorated my room in the perfect Brianna style. 

I crossed several things off my bucket list 

I bought a new car. 

I learned how to change the oil in my car. 

I taught Gemma how to say that her favorite aunt is Anna. 

I taught Gemma to love taking pictures. 

I became the relief society president and subsequently learned a bajillion new things like how to conduct a meeting, how to love in a different way, humility, and that God really does qualify who he calls. I also learned that relaxed Sundays don't exist most of the time.

I bought a gym membership and have used it consistently for a little over a month now and have lost 15 pounds. I still can't do a pull up. Trying to come to terms with the possibility of this never happening. haha

I saw my little siblings grow up so fast in this year and become people I wish I could have been at their age. 

I found out I'm going to be an aunt again. This time to a baby boy!! And I felt him kick. :D

I can run a faster mile than I think I ever have in my life. 

I bought my first hipster item: thick-framed glasses. 

I did not leave the state of Utah. (I want to cry for this)

Ive put 10% of everything I've made into a savings account and haven't 

touched it. But really want to go back to Europe with it. 

Shot for 2 businesses: Applebee's and Hot Mess cosmetics. 

Went to the temple at least twice a month.

I taught Gemma how to dip cookies in milk. 
Gained a more personal relationship with my savior and better learned how to use His atonement in my everyday life. Especially for things un-related to sin. 

The first time in my life that I have felt like a real adult.... {only sometimes.}

Gained way more confidence in myself and am happy where I am in life.
