2013 was pretty good to me. I think 2014 is going to be strange and amazing and crazy and challenging, so before it begins here’s a look back at the highlights from a year that was filled with friends, family, love, laughing, travel, food, and adventures.
I went to England. Finally. (Full set of photos on Flickr.)
I went to Hawaii. (Full set of photos on Flickr.)
I got to be part of one of my best friend’s wedding in Hawaii.
I got my second tattoo.
I went on 18 trips and took 24 flights.
I went to 10 states, not counting New York. (Michigan, Illinois, Vermont, California, Massachusetts, Â Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Indiana, Hawaii, Ohio)
I went to 2 countries. (Canada and England)
I saw 10 shows on Broadway. My favorite: Kinky Boots.
I went to 11 sporting events.
I went to 11 concerts. (My favorite: Frank Turner)
I went home for a cozy, snowy, icy Christmas with my family.
And here, presented without commentary, are photos that represent some of the times when I was happiest in 2013. Moments where I channeled Kurt Vonnegut and thought, “if this isn’t nice, I don’t know what is.”
Nice post and lovely photos! :) Hope your 2014 is wonderful.
Oh my goodness I love this post so much! Hope you have more amazing adventures in 2014.
Beautiful post, Emily! I love the photographs you take, so much! I think 10 or 11 is your favourite number (10 states, 10 shows, 11 sporting events, 11 concerts) :) So wonderful to know that you finally visited Platform nine and three quarters :) So jealous of you! Looking forward to following your bookish / photographic / travel adventures this year. After seeing your posts and pictures on the MSU team, the Spartans, I have fallen in love with them :) The Spartans rock!
Happy New Year! Hope your year is filled with many wonderful books and writers, wonderful bookstore visits, lots of beautiful reading moments and wonderful travel adventures!
