"Do not go where the path may lead.
Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail..."
-Emerson
I have a confession to make, in less than one week, I will be 25 years old. Yikes! I can't believe I actually just said that. Seems like yesterday I was turning 16, then 18, then 21, and now 25! As I begin the last week of my 1st quarter century, it seems like I can't stop reflecting back on my years leading up to this point. I have been so extremely blessed to have been constantly surrounded by people who love me, support me, and encourage me to spread my wings and chase my dreams. I've had the most incredible animal companions who kept me company all through my years, although I may be a bit biased. I know that I would not be the women I am today without all of the people and animals who have played a huge roll in helping me become who I am today. Here are a few of my favorite pictures from my childhood until now of people or events that have shaped my life.
