24

last weekend we celebrated my birthday by traveling to Jim Thorpe, PA. It’s a cute small town, nestled in the “mountains” (more like rolling hills). It was the perfect fall destination. And it was so fun to have a full day with max

we also found the appalachiana trail and took a small hike on itIMAG0732IMG_20121013_170204 IMAG0733
on my birthday I went to lunch with 2 of my friends and then max took me to an incredible dinner at this random turkish restaurant we found (one thing fun about Philly..they literally have EVERY type of food you could imagine)

turning 24 has been interesting..i always use birthdays as reflections of what i've done with my life...in my short 24 years i have done a lot, which i am so grateful for...however this year i felt like i am at a crossroads...i really don't know what i am doing with my life but i realized...i don't have to figure it out now..i can do anything i want to...i still can be anything i want to be...because i'm only 24
so we will see where it leads...
