My uber-cool parents, way back when.
My beautiful mother in powder blue.
My handsome father looking like a stud on the beach.
One of my favorite family photos. Note my sister covered in calamine lotion, lol.
Mini soccer player, elegantly highlighted by my father. Sports were a key part of my life growing up.

After a win with some serious bangs.
Field hockey with an incredible little red plaid skirt y'all.
My BFF Allison who features in some of my writing. We are in full on awkward adolescence here.

From my carte de séjour, it's giving Bond girl (also ten years ago, don't hate).
