I usually get to the end of the year and think of all the ways it was rude to me. But this year, I’m thinking of all the ways life was good to me.

In 2015, I…

Got a new, wonderful job (with my very own office!)

Saw John Oliver

Had a sweet Valentine’s Day surprise

Celebrated my peanut’s third birthday

Enjoyed the little moments (especially after a scary car crash)

Enjoyed the little moments part deux

Celebrated my baby brother’s college graduation

Celebrated my birthday at a winery

Made our first fire!

Wore the galaxy around my neck

GOT MARRIED!

GOT MARRIED!

Moved

Gave grandma a much-deserved beach birthday

Bought a house!

Celebrated our marriage!

Watched my best friend, Steph, get married

Spent a beautiful fall day thrifting, eating, and leaf peepin’

Spent the perfect day with my best friend, buying tiaras, as two married ladies!

Got silly in Halloween costumes

Celebrated love

Celebrated my coworkers

Felt appreciated

Traveled to paradise

Soaked up the sun

Enjoyed quality time with family

Had a wonderful last day of 2015 seeing Star Wars with my husband (again!)

Love Thy Selfie 2015

And a few of my favorite selfies of 2015!

In 2016, I vow…

…Not to take myself too seriously. Honestly, I’m not as big on resolutions as my dog is.

Instead, here are a few (vague) things I’d like to work toward in 2016.

• Read 25 books
• Get (more) active
• Take a more photos (and work in a few outfits of the day!)
• Budget my money!!!
• Focus on gaining experiences instead of things
• Travel

What about you? Was 2015 good to you? And what are you hoping to do in 2016?
