I was the guest of honor.

It was almost the last day of freshman year, and my friend, Natalie and I were playing around in the band room.

This was our first high school spring concert

Before school started, my friend and I repainted my room. It was cool because we splatter painted the walls and put our hand prints and foot prints all over the place!

I decided to give marching band a try my sophomore year. We had countless hours of practice and hard work to make a great show.

First day of sophomore year! I'm not quite as nervous as I was last year!

This was another homecoming with my best friend

Natalie turned 15 today!! She is also hispanic, so she had an elaborate party too! We rode in a limo to the venue, and this picture was actually taken in a bathroom...

My newly painted room inspired me to have a splatter paint party. We ran around outside decorating shirts with fabric paint and we also decorated my cake with a TON of icing. Then everyone signed my walls, and put their hand prints up.

My grandpa treated us ladies to a relaxing spa day. We all look very out of it. It was a great day though. We stayed in the lodge all weekend and were pampered every day we were there.

This was the first year I attempted to run the Peachtree Road Race. It was the best race of my life, and even though I didn't run the whole entire time, I finished the 10K in just over an hour, which is not bad for my first time. I never thought I would run in a race like this, and it was sooo fun. I plan on doing it again next year.
