Highlights of 2016 In Pictures

The year 2016 was super busy, very fast paced, and gone in the blink of an eye. Seriously, didn't it just begin and now I'm posting annual highlights and blog reviews? Wow. A lot happened in 2016. It was full of travel for me. I visited my home country Pakistan, then went for Hajj, and then Canada over Thanksgiving weekend. I did lots of creative stuff, read my heart out, and baked like crazy! Our family had all the milestone birthdays this year and each celebration was brilliantly done. I turned TWENTY FIVE and am as sassy and classy as ever. 2016 also made me a land lady. One of the best parts of this year was the world's renewed Harry Potter craze. The Cursed Child and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them rekindled the Potter fire in this otherwise blah-ish world. Potterheads forever and ever!

I looked back at all of my social media and blog entries to collect the major highlights of my year (just like I'd done last year) and put them all together into one blog entry right here. What better way to reminisce than through beautiful pictures, right? Right! Here's my year 2016 in picture highlights! Hoping 2017 will be calmer, relaxed, and full of blessings, love, and happiness!
