Selfies

I am not in very many pictures because I am always behind the camera. And, I don't take many selfies because I always feel really weird about it, but every now and then I do for lots of random reasons. I keep up with this blog mostly for a record of our lives, so I thought I would have a post of my selfies. I was listening to a podcast the other day that was talking about selfies. They made a good point about having the ability to take pictures of ourselves at various moments in our lives and sharing that with future generations is pretty cool. Imagine having a selfie of your grandmother when she watched her fiance leaving for war or of your mom holding you as a baby while you slept. Interesting concept...not that I am going to start taking a selfie a day, but I might not feel so awkward about them. Here are my selfies from the past year. It's an all about me post :)

An afternoon run at one of my favorite parks - it was crazy windy and chilly! Everyone else was in wintry clothes - I was in my normal tank top and capris, freezing my booty off!
 At the Bellagio breakfast buffet in Vegas with the cutest little yogurt parfait ever.
 Muddy after the Mighty Mud Run!
 Enjoying a donut on National Donut Day.
 A contemplative selfie while relaxing on the beach in Riviera Maya, it was taken as a joke, but I kinda liked the relaxing memory!
 A quiet day at the Frio, my favorite kind!

 I cut about 6 inches off my hair, and the hairdresser made my hair look amazing! I wish I had the patience and desire to do my hair on a daily basis.
 Out at a girls' night. Not sure why I was making this face, but clearly I was uncomfortable about something!
 Yeah, I voted. And I was proud of it!
On one of my super sweaty lunch break runs! I love that I can go for a  run real quick and come back and teach my class super sweaty (and stinky). Definitely a benefit of teaching through a computer!
After a rough climb up an untraveled path at the Frio.
