Midestern Vacation

Joshua, Brooklyn and I had the opportunity to take a month-long vacation to visit our Midwestern families. We traveled to Iowa, Chicago and Michigan and had so much fun visiting and catching up with different family members.

Some of our trip highlights included:
My littlest sister's graduation party
Swimming in Lake Michigan
My best friend's wedding
Girl's nights in Chicago and then again in Iowa!
Losing my nephew!
Getting addicted to "burn notice"
Stoker 4th of July party hosted by Bill and Jenny including an array of games, and contests including the infamous pie-eating contest
Catching up with friends and family members!

TO RISK by: William Arthur Ward

"To laugh is to risk appearing a fool,
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental.
To reach out to another is to risk involvement,
To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self.
To place your ideas and dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss.
To love is to risk not being loved in return,
To live is to risk dying,
To hope is to risk despair,
To try is to risk failure.
But risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.
The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing.
He may avoid suffering and sorrow,
But he cannot learn, feel, change, grow or live.
Chained by his servitude he is a slave who has forfeited all freedom.
Only a person who risks is free.

The pessimist complains about the wind;
The optimist expects it to change;
And the realist adjusts the sails."
