POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Finally I post about Broncos almost a week after everybody else. Only in Gen fashion of course. Well, here's to another memorable, unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime, experience. I had a blast with these amazing people and made memories that will last a lifetime. I cannot put into words how grateful I am. And I know everybody and their mom's have been saying the same words, so I'll just leave y'all with this.

Don't take any moment for granted. Don't take any person for granted. Those moments will be gone in the blink of an eye. So truly, enjoy them. Take them in. Never forget them. Never let your friends who you care about slip away because you 'forget' or 'don't have time'. Take a moment. Give grace to them. And give grace to yourself. That may be a little cheesy or corny, but I mean it. Don't let go of the things you truly cherish the most and more importantly, don't let anybody choose what makes you happy.

The older I get, the 'less' I post. Moreover, when I do post, It usually has very deep meaning to me in some way or another. This post is no different. I find myself looking back a lot and seeing how much I've grown - and how much left I still have to go. My heart goes out to all who have been struggling. Whether you've been struggling as I have, or in a different way. It's taken me this long to realize and come to terms with being okay with not being okay AND most importantly, letting people know I am not okay. It's been such a long journey this year already. Given the opportunities this year already with Western Thunder, my life could not be any more full, yet still feeling incredibly empty at times.

We had the opportunity to go through the Jae's boots foundation experience to which every member of WTMB received their very own set of cowboy boots - ones with a heavy reminder that you -- I am important. That we all matter. That our lives mean something and if we just reach out and check in, things will eventually be okay. It's boot check time; check in with others and check in with yourself. You don't need an excuse to.

The people in these photos are a large part of my why. They keep me going and never give up on me. They make me laugh when I can't and encourage me when I fall down. I will never stop singing their praises, because to me, that's what they deserve. Thank you to each and everyone of you in my life. You all mean something to me.

If you can take one thing away from me, Is that if I met you, I will always love you and you will always hold a special place in my heart. No one ever comes and goes from my heart even when we live far or barely speak. I love you and care about you. So don't forget your why.

I think my phone hates sentimental value because I wrote these nice posts about thanking everyone and how my year went and how I've grown but im done, ive tried 3 times, I give up. If youre curious, its on my Facebook so at least you can still see it if you so desire. Thank you Jave and Hare for being my rocks. I promise to be a better friend in the future and promise to always be there for you. Thank you Alpha Nu chapter. I could write paragraphs for each of you but I don't have time or space. Thank you all for believing in me when I didnt even believe in myself. I hope i can make you all proud. Thank you for being my life lines and my family, especially when it mattered most. Thank you Logan for being such a great friend and being my Bible Study Buddy AND helping me get to Minneapolis. I owe you BIG time. Thanks for dragging me to that party, I had fun and I'm glad you got me out of my shell. Thank you piccolo section for making me feel wanted and loved and appreciated. I love each and every one of you and again, I could write paragraphs for you all. Thank you Bryanna for being an awesome roommate! It's been a fun year with you!
Thanks for an amazing year everyone. Thank you for helping me grow into a independent, social person.

Concert with la boyfriend! Buddy played some very good tuning notes on his oboe while I hid the middle of the choir. But hey! It was space themed! Featuring Branson's toes...
