2020 Favorites
Blogmas Day 9
I know it might be a little early to start thinking about 2021, but I’ve been reflecting a lot on 2020 lately. No matter how you slice it, 2020 was a year for the history books. SO MUCH happened this year, it’s crazy. A lot of extremely memorable things for sure. Sometimes I feel like we are crawling to the finish line.
2020 will be known for many things but there were some good things that happened, too. Last year I shared my 2019 Favorites and honestly it was a good way to reflect and identify some small joys that occurred throughout the year. So today I’m sharing my 2020 Favorites (so far) in the hopes of choosing to find the good this year, too.
Instead of going into tons of detail, I decided to continue with the tradition of creating lists (hi, I’m Type A). I chose my top 5 for each category except for highlights, in which I chose 10. Because I can. Enjoy!
