Since it’s Thinking Out Loud Thursday and I’m in more of a “more pictures, less words” type of mood, I figured I’d give Throwback Thursday a new meaning and take you down memory lane via my iPhoto on my computer.
Please reserve judgement for the end…
Westminster Spring Fling 2007, right before graduation. When baby doll dresses were all the rage… And this is Kathryn. My best friend from boarding school. I don’t feel bad posting this picture because 95% sure she doesn’t read my blog #SupportiveFriend
The lady who turned me into a crazy runner. Pre 50-mile relay race around Nantucket. All on sand…
Why I insisted on taking picture with your mouth wide open we will never know. Also my first beer funnel. #SoCollege
Kappa Kappa Gamma. Day after initiation Fall 2007.
First half marathon. My struggle was very, very real. Severely undertrained and over confident. Couldn’t sit down for weeks.
The cutest pup that I ever did see…
Enter the absurd amount of dog photos…
How I made my millions…#BeachBum
Back to school to find me a little. Love you. xo
The three best friends that there ever were. Take me back to the glory days and the Kappa please.
When I graduated college but no one in my family bought photos so I had to steal them off the internet… Also can I go back to being that blonde? K. Thanks. Bai.
Moved to Philly. Started grad school. Lived on my own for the first time. Why not run a marathon too?
Volunteered at a UPenn Vet school training rescue dogs. The fact I didn’t steal one of these guys is still mind blowing.
Rescuing baby ducklings in my spare time.
Traveled to Sweden.
Met this guy : )
Convinced him to run a marathon : ) : )
And to go to Mexico. Obviously I wasn’t allowed to drive the golf cart.
And there you have it folks. A little throwback to some of the best times of my life. Hope you all have a fabulous Thursday and just one more day until the weekend!
Do you ever look at old pictures and think WTF?
Any exciting plans for this weekend? Going into the city on Saturday for my friends birthday brunch and then a housewarming party that afternoon/evening. It’s gonna be a long day of festivities : )

I loved this! It was a little timeline of your life and I feel “caught up” now 🙂 Oh I don’t know what I was doing or wearing from 6th – 10th grade. I’m sure I’ll look back on college and feel the same.

Oh… I have photos on here from 11th grade… they are NOT being posted… too many popped collars and puka shell necklaces.

This is awesome!!! I don’t know what I liked more, the beer funnel picture or the kappa stuff – I was a zeta girl (Zeta Tau Alpha) and miss those days, too!! Such fun times and wonderful memories. My sorority sisters still can’t believe I run now, I was pretty into the party girl scene back then, ha!

I loved seeing your old pics! And its always so weird to look back on my own. We had just gotten Facebook during my senior year of college in 2005 so (luckily) there aren’t any college pics on there. I did use shutterfly back in college so most of my pics are saved on there. Otherwise they are stored in shoeboxes in the closet!

This is amazing. I definitely go back through pictures and try to remember why in the world I 1) wore that 2) thought it was a good idea and 3) felt the need to document it. Such is life 🙂 love the puppy pictures and ducklings!!

I just downloaded the Timehop app, and it’s crazy to see what I was doing 8 years ago – which is how far back it goes since it tracks via Facebook. I thought I was so grown up at 15/16…and I was such a little girl 🙂
I’ve always enjoyed running down the Cape and on Nantucket, but I haven’t done the beach runs – the sand KILLS me. Same with Compo, etc. Always around, never on!

Nantucket runs are my favorite runs. If I could do every training run there I would!! I sometimes drive home so I can run around Compo…. I’ll drive 25 minutes for those views !

This is fantastic! My old photos are by and large locked away encrypted on my external hardrive and on my old mac, thus I can’t get to them. It makes me so sad…
I love looking at them, though–sure, some of them aren’t my faves, but you know what? I wouldn’t trade them, or the times 😀

It’s so fun to see your old photos! Pre-college and college pictures make me cringe, especially the any ones from high school with those plaid uniforms…
I would have totally adopted every single dog if I volunteered where you are. Rescue dogs are my weakness and I love my little rescue puggle so much.

When I look at old pictures, I remember people from HS who I haven’t heard from in years. I then proceed to look them up on facebook, contemplate liking the picture of their new baby (yes, we are 23 still…) decide not to and then laugh at how serious we thought we were back then.
Other times I wonder why I dressed like that. Were jean skirts really in???
