I've said it before and I'll say it again...these are my
least favorite blog posts to write because they take forever, but my most favorite ones to read. I hope you enjoy a look back on the year 2015.
January
-We rang in the New Year with our friends, Nick & Paige, Kortney & Josh and Emily & Zac. At the time, I had only hung out with these girls once before, but I knew their boys because Aaron has been friends with them since high school. It's so funny because since then we have hung out with them numerous times and made lots of FUN memories and I'm so glad we all became friends! We will be ringing in the New Year with them again and I can't wait.
New Year's Day we went on an epic duck hunting trip with our men. We may have almost sat in a skunk nest.
I also got to experience the Dallas Market for the first time and got to spend the day with these sweet friends from Mammoth. It was so much fun and I'm so glad I got to go with them! Miss you both.
At the end of January, I started a new job working as the Outside Sales Rep for State Beauty Supply and I still absolutely love it! Thankful to have a job that I love in the beauty industry.
In January, I also got the bright idea to open up an Etsy shop. I have put my shop on vacation for the past few months so I could catch up on life and relax during the holidays, but I have plans to open it back up in the next few weeks so check back here if you're in the market for a baby/toddler gift or any kind of personalized gift: https://www.etsy.com/shop/QuinceeTaylorDesigns?ref=hdr

2015, you were a great year filled with lots of blessings.
