Highlights of 2015 In Pictures

Oh my, what an year 2015 has been! It's really been a perfect mix of good and bad. Where I began the year at my most favorite place in the world (WWOHP Orlando!), the start of my year brought some medical horrors my way as I had the first two (and hopefully last!) surgeries of my life. It was all bad and hurtful as I recovered in February and March. April was fun thanks to the A to Z Blogging Challenge and I ended up being published and featured twice this year for all my creative awesomeness; BlogHer featured my 3D Hand Drawing Art and the A to Z blog featured me as Themes that Rocked the Challenge. This year was fabulous for my blog as well. I ended up becoming a regular blogger and redesigned my blog into a beautiful piece of art where I could pour my crazy heart out. I finally created my much needed Bucket List too this year which is filling up as I find more and more craziness I wish to achieve and do in life. The year was a success with my weight obsession and I finally achieved almost half of my weight loss goal (next year hopefully I'll be done!). I enjoyed beautiful moments with my family, Po turned five, Gubby turned one, I turned TWENTY FOUR (woohoo!), we celebrated our first Eid with Gubby, and also enjoyed Six Flags MFD for the first time with the little darling. Nani completed four years of being gone to a peaceful place (God willing!). 


The second half of the year, as always, was eventful and full of great news! I reunited with my lovely Gossip Girl show as I began watching it all over again. I bought my Kindle and finally found a way to quench my thirst for book reading. Two HUGE events included our OctoNovember Birthday vacation to (once again!) the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Orlando ... and *drum rolls* I became a citizen of the United States of America this year (thank God so much!). We finished our year in style as we took a road trip to NYC (Insert numerous hearts here please! Oh my.) and enjoyed a gorgeous start of winter at Brrrrryant Park's Winter Village, where the skating rink and the humongous Christmas tree were mesmerizing.

The year has been so blessed! I couldn't be more thankful! Here's hoping 2016 will be just as eventful and even more happier and blessed than this one! I looked back at my year through my blog entries, Facebook posts, Tweets, and Instagram photos to collect all the beautiful memories in one entry and here is my year's highlights in photos.
