This is SO hard! I can’t think of anything I have never done before off the top of my head. I ate new foods, tried new little things, but nothing too extravagant.

Yes, someone in Terence’s family is always pregnant or having a baby. I love all my little nieces and nephews.

Growing my photography business.

Did you suffer illness or injury?
No *knock on wood*
What was the best thing you bought?
A new Nikon D750!!!! So excited!

Where did most of your money go?
FOOD. Ugh.

Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2014.
Life is short. You can’t take it with you. Pick and choose your battles.
Where do I even begin? I love so much about this post I’m grinning like a lovesick teenager. You must have been on Santa’s REALLY good list to get that new camera, girlllllllllll you’re amazing. I want to put that camera to good use on family and Mommy-and-Me portraits. Yes, I’m still holding out on the family portrait. I wish we were neighbors, or at least lived closer than we do, because you’re totally best friend material. Maybe I could trade my Camry in for a helicopter jet so we’re not so far apart?! Speaking of transportation modes, is The Crossfire Series not the HOTTESTTTTTTTTTTTTTT thing you’ve ever read. Oh. My. Gideon, oh Gideon.
