:: End of an Era ::

I've officially entered my last month of my 20's. At times it seems like my teenaged years were so long ago, and at times it's hard to believe that I'm stepping into a new decade.

My 20's were incredibly FULL and I went through many significant life changes. To list a few:
- Did my DTS with YWAM in Australia for 6 months, including a few weeks in New Zealand
- Became an Auntie... a role that continues to grow :)
- Completed a 2 year diploma program at Douglas College in Therapeutic Recreation
- Met, dated, got engaged to and married Josh (all in about 16 months)
- Bought our first place (condo) and our second (house)
- Lost our first baby in early miscarriage
- Had the most beautiful baby girl, Kenzie Diana
- Am currently pregnant with our next little blessing! (Due Feb 7th so I'll be 30!)

During these years I met many incredible people - some who came into my life for a short time and some who have become friends for life. Other relationships I carried over from teenage years and value them more than ever as life ebbs and flows. I don't think I could learn more than I do through relationships and even the ones that hurt... there's much to be thankful for.

Other highlights from my 20's... I was in numerous (7) wedding parties, welcomed 10 nephews and one niece plus many more babies that friend's have had, and have gone through peaks and valleys in my walk with God - never being more thankful for His faithfulness and steadfast presence in my life. Josh and I have endured many changes in employment and that's something I really hope settles down from here on in!

Thinking back, I don't think I'll ever go through another decade with as many huge life changes as I did in my 20's. In some ways, I'll miss the craziness... in others, I look forward to life becoming more stable and consistent. Or is that just a dream? :)

How about you? What are the highlights of your past 10 years?
