Isn't this a beautiful place? Rocky Mountain National Park just celebrated it's 100th birthday this past week so I went up before sunrise to see the alpen glow. This place has a special spot in my heart. Sean and I went on our first date here and since then we have explored the park little by little, hopefully to cover every trail and peak there is to climb. I feel incredibly lucky to live so near. Thank you EARTH for such a wonderful gift.

First off. ALL OF MY PLANTS ARE DEAD. (I left you last time with the notion that they were doing well, I'm sorry)

Second. Right as I was thinking of the second thing to say, I spilled my whole cup of tea on my leg. It is very hot. But I will not clean it up right away because I'm too annoyed to confront this just yet.

Over the Holiday break I was able to visit my precious family for a week and it was wonderful. I really miss them. I also got to see some friends but mostly I stayed home listening to my little sister's absurd stories and tried to keep my parent's dog from eating Louie and Louie from constantly humping her...

Now that it is 2015 I really only have one goal that I want to keep this year. Last year, I made a charming little list (that I did not accomplish) but this year my goal is to be more POSITIVE. I did too complaining last year and it is not good. This year is going to be full of smiles and rainbows.
