I took this photo a while back during one of the maybe two or three times it snowed this year. It was no snowpocalypse, but it was beautiful nonetheless. Honestly, winter is my favorite time of the year, yet I'm excited and know it'll be refreshing to welcome in the warmer weather!

This was taken in an Nicaraguan ice cream shop, Eskimo, during my Orphanage Outreach service trip. We were allowed to explore the city during our free time, so my mom and I went to get a little sugary treat in order to stay awake to properly ring in the New Year.

I spent my winter break doing a service trip in Jinotega, Nicaragua. We worked with young kids who were all really adorable and generous, including this one here named Alvin. It was truly a lot of fun and I definitley want to do it again soon!

My brother and I made Pokeball cupcakes about a week ago and they were delicious! They took forever to decorate, but they were an absolute necessity in our Pokemon Fest including card trading and reminiscent Season 1 episode viewing.

Taken on the way back from our trip and in the midst of a huge storm. The rain was pouring like crazy, yet it was absolutely beautiful. I miss New York and this rain.
