The New Year Has Arrived!

Hello loves! I just wanted to take some time to sum up my New Year's Eve for you all. My group of friends (which I refer to as "the group") all met up at my best friend Rachel's house before embarking on our journey! 

Vince and I at Rachel's house. He looked so handsome in his new Express shirt that we picked out.
 Fun facts: my skirt is also from Express, and January 13th (also my 19th birthday) will be 1 year and a half for us.  

After driving 30 minutes to our destination and living through me driving and dealing with my road rage issues (yes it's true I have a problem) we all ate dinner at Buca di Beppo. It is such a fun restaurant to go to and caters to a big group with their family style Italian food, can it get any better??

 My friends are simple amazing. We all went our own directions for college, but whenever we are reunited on breaks, it feels like nothing has changed. I am extremely blessed to have them all in my life. 

These girls have been by my side for my entire life. They're the best of the best! I don't know what I would do without them. 

Morgan, Rachel, Me, McKenna

I love my shoes btw... is that bad to brag about your own shoes?? I don't think so! I wore them to prom my senior year of high school and still continue to wear them whenever I get the chance.

After dinner we all headed back to Morgan's house for games and just to hang out, which we do best! I made chocolate cup cakes with peanut butter frosting. Only 2 were eaten... one by me because I had to try them. I'm going to think that no one ate them because they were all too full from dinner? The cake was a little dry I'll admit, but they were pretty tasty if you enjoy rich chocolate! I still have much learning to do in the baking department, obviously. 

Vince took me home a little before midnight because I started feeling crappy while everyone else went out to a beautiful lookout we have in town. I wasn't feeling myself all night, and woke up the next morning sick. I've been fighting off the cold ever since. Two colds in one break... what's up with that!? I'll have to say it wasn't the most exciting New Year's Eve, but it was a good memory for sure. 

I hope you all most the most of 2012 and follow the path God has for you. 

That's my only plan for 2012. 

Love Always, 

Samantha, LMT
