Nina Marie: January 2015

A while ago, back in the beginning of December, I decided to go through my year and see what I could remember of 2014. It's harder to remember the farther back you go. After going through hundreds of pictures saved on my computer, Facebook, Twitter & Instagram I found tons of pictures. I thought since I'm a huge picture taker why not show 2014 in pictures. :)

p.s. this is super long haha

----------------------------------------

January was way too cold and all I could think about was going back to warmer weather. I used to daydream about going to the beach everyday. Well, back in January I went a little nuts posting pictures of the beach, but it's the best place on earth. <3

I got to take a few engagement pictures of my best friend from 3rd grade and her fiancé.

I also did that "It's the beginning of the year, so I'm gonna work out" thing with my sister.

---------------------------------------

In February, I started using my camera more & more.

It's great that I have beautiful friends to take pictures of. :)

My sister's senior Homecoming! Aren't they the cutest!! :)

The Olympics began and I became obsessed with Meryl Davis.

One random weekday, Karlee, Kelsey and me went down to U of I to see Anna to be on the Ellen Show.

I'm obsessed with this view of the elevator, especially at sunrise :)

And of course I can't forget, LEXI RAE SCHACHERBAUER WAS BORN!!! <3 :)

---------------------------------------

In March I finally got to go back to the beach! I went on Spring Break with my best friend to Nashville & Gulf Shores and I met some pretty awesome people too. :)

I saw Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman!!!! Woot Woot!!! ^^

^^ We tried, and I'm 100% sure we succeeded :)

Favorite quote of all time <3

----------------------------------------

April was an extremely random month for me, I met my second favorite band, I took Prom pictures for the high school, I got sick and was on a million different meds, it was my sister and cousins senior prom and I was finishing my graphic design classes.

favorite couples of 2014 goes to..... ^^

10 years of Mean Girls, so obviously I had to throw that in there & my hospital selfie.

haha random, I know.

--------------------------------------

May was a fun month. I finished my graphic design classes but I STILL don't know what I want to do with my life. If it wasn't for these people in picture below I would have dropped out a long time ago. They kept me sane, even though we all went a little nuts, but we stuck together.

KELLI'S GRADUATION! And Heather & Megan :)

&& my bff left for 5 weeks to go to Paris!!! :)

-------------------------------------------

In June I was apparently outside more then I remember. All my pictures were taken outside, but that's fine with me!

Afternoon walks <3

Blowin' bubbles with Brayden

summer nights with my friends is the best thing

Kelli tried going on a "diet "again.

I started taking pictures again :)

----------------------------------

July is probably one of my favorite months. I'm obsessed with July 4th festivities and it's always perfect weather for picture taking.

---------------------------------

Looking back at August, I guess I didn't realize how busy it was until now. So many happy things happening, except school started back up & who wants that?

I went to a Katy Perry concert!!

School started back up and I had mixed emotions.

I went to my first 1D concert of the season with my best friends.

^I turned my camera to auto mode and got these cute pictures of my favorite two people. :)

ZAYN

SELFIES WITH HARRY AND ZAYN

BEST NIGHT OF MY LIFE.

oh yeah, I went to two shows in Illinois......

One night in August, I made these three come out to downtown Peoria to help me practice.

This girl got married :)

-------------------------------------------

September was also another busy and fun month. I went to California for the first time which was so much fun! I went to two more 1D shows, went to the beach, held a snake, you know, all that fun stuff. lol

I also took more pictures of Madison (I'm surprised she still puts up with me)

my neighbors and my favorite family :)

In October, I used my camera SO much. Another thing I noticed going through all my files.

In November I turned 22. It was pretty horrible. Mostly because I'm actually still 8 years old at heart. BUT. My parents did celebrate their 30 year wedding anniversary! :)
