Those of you who know me know I love taking photos wherever I go. Be it landscapes, selfies, or dog pics, while traveling, adventuring, or standing outside in my own back yard, I’m the happiest version of myself when I’m holding my camera, snapping photos, and turning moments of time into forever capsules that are so much fun to look back on each and every year. Sitting here today, a rainy, late-December afternoon in the dwindling days of 2024, I’m really feeling that reminiscing, reflective spirit as I scroll back through a year’s worth of photos that made 2024 a year to remember.

Maybe you missed me, maybe you didn’t realize I was gone… (and maybe you’re finding my little corner of the Internet for the very first time)… whatever the case, you and I are both here now, and that’s what really counts! My blogging break wasn’t intentional (it never is), but I’m just a girl who struggles to balance life and hobbies and business and pleasure. Rest assured, I’ve got a lot to say — I just need to find the time to normalize my routine and get back to doing what I love — oversharing!
