Blast from the Past

Yep! That's me... Cheesin' away while rockin' out to my discman... This picture is probably from 7th grade (process of elimination because I got braces in 7th grade, and contacts in 8th)

A GREAT friend posted some old pics on facebook today and it has made me very thankful for many materialish things that I didn't know I appreciated so much...

I am thankful for:

  • braces
  • contacts
  • highlights
  • learning how to style my hair (don't think I knew how to do anything besides a pony tail then)
  • a great friend (pictured with me above) whose mom waxed my eyebrows when my mom wouldn't allow it
  • understanding that it's not cool to dress like a boy... and it does not get their attention haha
  • makeup
  • especially bronzer
  • "blossoming" as I've gotten older (as stated by my husband)

Don't get me wrong... as I sit here typing this I am extremely content in sweats, a baseball hat, and no makeup... I'm just very thankful to have matured into a woman who appreciate beauty in all aspects :)


So fun to look back... wouldn't change those years for anything :)
