But I'm not complaining!
First up was a trip to Disney World celebrating my upcoming High School graduation. We got to meet so many fun characters AND spend an entire week as a family. Not to mention we got to go with my best friend and her family. It was an unforgettable week!
{Again: picture overload! If you follow me on Instagram you've probably seen most of these pictures already.}
It was still decorated for Christmas and I couldn't have been happier.
Yes. I was the 17 year old waiting in line to meet all of the princesses.
Mandatory "It's a Small World" selfie.
Sonia and me in front of Rapunzel's tower.
We ate lunch at the Be Our Guest restaurant inside the Beast's castle. It was so beautiful I almost cried. *no lie*
The boys were almost as excited to meet Rapunzel as Sonia and I were!
Magic Kingdom is the most magical place of all.
Hollywood Studios!
Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen!
Another group picture!
Mary Poppins! We met her, Alice, The Mad Hatter, Tigger and Pooh at 1900 Park Fare for a character breakfast.
Proof that, yes, we saw Anna and Elsa. But no! We didn't wait in the two+ hour line to meet them.
Snow White...
And Belle!
Epcot in the evening!
Animal Kingdom.
Nemo the Musical!
Then less than a week after we returned from Disney I had the incredible opportunity to travel to Atlanta, GA with a group from my church for Passion 2015! If you don't know what that is, here's a brief explanation: it's a conference for 18-25 year olds(and high school seniors) who want to worship Jesus and grow closer to Him. Musicians include people like Chris Tomlin, Christy Nockels, Kristian Stanfill, Matt Redman and David Crowder. The speakers for this year were Louie Giglio, Christine Caine, and Lecrae. I've watched the live stream of this conference for five years now and it was worth every second of the wait. Needless to say it was three of the best days of my whole entire life.
Courtney and I extremely excited for our first Passion.
Megan, Kristen and me!
The cross and Jesus were the center of our whole weekend.
Community/family groups were fantastic!
I got the chance to meet up with my lovely cousin, Mary-Gwen and her husband.
This was my family group- seven girls I had never met before and will never forget! They were SO sweet and even though we've all been through incredibly different things we were united through our relationship with Jesus.
Matchy-matchy with the girls.
Seriously- I've never experienced God's Presence like I did this past weekend. He spoke so clearly to me (and the 12,000 other students in attendance) and I will never forget all that the Lord did. We were able to worship Him with nothing else in the way. It was so very beautiful.
Obviously it's been an incredible beginning to 2015. I can tell that God has amazing things in store for this year and I can't wait to see what else He has planned!
