quail lake

Life is difficult after high school. Not to seem overly dramatic or anything, but EVERYTHING changes. My entire life I have had the same schedule: sports, school, homework, piano, etc. I had the same friends, we would go to the same games, and we lived a comfortable life. Now all of a sudden everyone is moving on and going in different directions. My friends and I are slowly heading in different directions, and although I cannot wait to see what they all have in store, I want to make most of the time we have left. 

This summer, we have all spend the majority of the days together. We have finished countless things off of our bucket lists, and once again we completed another. This week we all went to quail lake. We spent the day in the blistering sun jamming to music on the boat, wake surfing, and having dance parties.

the best fourth

For my entire life, I have spent the Fourth of July the same. However, this year with my friends leaving and Greyson back in town, I decided to switch it up and stay in my hometown. This Fourth of July was spent in my hometown with my best friends. Although the heat was almost unbearable, the company was exceptional. My friends and I spent most of the day swimming, then we had a bbq for dinner, and then spent the night watching my eight-year-old crush, Scotty McCreery, perform live during the fireworks!

OUR FIRST FOURTH<3

After the fireworks, we all headed over to my friends for ice cream and sparklers. It was late at night, and we were jamming to "I am proud to be an American" for the hundredth time that day. Luckily the neighbors did not mind too much. Then finally I had to say my first of many "see you later's" to my best friend, Ben! Holy, this hit me. This is the last time we will all be together for the next two years and maybe more. Before we said our last goodbyes, we all joined in a huddle and sang, "You are going to miss this"..., and wow, that really hit home. 

Louisiana sure is lucky to be getting Benjamin, he is the best of the best!

It was the best fourth!
