January was a great month for me-a month of relaxation, creativity and family time!
One of the highlights of January was my trip to California with my dad for my cousin’s wedding! While we were there, I got to spend a lot of time with my brother, sister-in-law, and niece (who is full of so much spunk and curiosity).

I also had some lovely time at home, working on my blog, catching up with friends, exploring cute/local coffee shops and watching LOTS of Netflix (specifically Chasing Life and Orange is the New Black).
I dabbled in some painting, caught up on my scrapbook, and read for fun!
I visited the Ice Castles in Midway, UT with one of my best friends, Anna, which was such a blast. (she has an awesome blog here if you want to check it out!)
I am back at Wellesley now for my Sophomore Spring. This first week back was especially tough. Getting back into the routine of school after such a long break was hard. And, to be quite honest, I am feeling really overwhelmed about the semester ahead. I have more on my plate than ever before. But, I am excited for the next semester of growth and I know with a positive attitude and realistic goals that I will be able to have an great semester!
