Little Blessings

This week has been,to say the least, amazing. It's a week of wrapping on final projects and presentations, participating in my last AdGroup fundraising event and meeting, and celebrating that fact that I am now finished with 3 out of 6 of my classes for this semester! 

It has also been a week of being constantly reminded of how lucky I am to have certain friends,family, and activities in my life. This week has really put into perspective how many amazing things I have been able to be a part of over the years and how many people I have that love and support me through everything I do. 

Monday night I got to say goodbye Leah, Tiffany, and Jubilee. I met Leah and her beautiful horses this Fall and my only regret is that I didn't have the chance to met them earlier. Leah provided me with the opportunity to work with Tiffany which turned into an amazing experience. Because of this I was able to make a new friend, ride an amazing horse every week, and buy groceries and pay my electric bill which is very important! 

Wednesday night we had our AdGroup Christmas party. It was pretty epic. From ugly sweaters, to white elephant gifts and amazing food it was such a good time! Seeing everyone there was another reminder of the support I had of my classmates that elected me as fundraising chair for the group last spring. You guys gave me the opportunity to grow as a person and gain a lot of valuable experience. This year had its ups and down but we got through them and it has made each and everyone one of us into a better person. 

Wednesday we also started our Sit On Santa fundraiser. This is such a fun event to put on and it ended up being very successful. And you saved me the trouble of having to write out my Christmas list and send it all the way up to the north pole!


Today my campaigns team received an A on our plans book. For those of you that have never taken a campaigns class or for those of you that have never written a campaigns book, you should know that it was an extremely tedious and draining project that took the entire semester to finish.  The book turned out absolutely beautiful and I am so proud of the work we into it. An A has never felt so good!!!!

Today I also came home to a package from Mrs. Klug (Matt's mom). It was a total surprise and was filled with so many awesome little treats. From homemade caramels to pony socks it was exactly what I needed going into finals week.  There is something about a package that someone puts together especially for you that make you feel really special. Thanks for the pick me up! 



I challenge you today to make someone feel loved and special today. Even if it is a small text letting someone know that you appreciate them. A small thing can go a long way!
