Reflections and Ponderings:
It's 2012, a new year and as good a time as any to reflect on last year with a goal of making this year not only great, but better. January is the time that everyone makes resolutions....I see proof of this in the gym which is suddenly packed everyday with people deciding that this is the year they get fit. This happens every year, but unfortunately by mid February most of these people stop their visits as the eagerness of the new year and new beginnings starts to wane. Personally, I am looking forward to new beginnings. I've learned not to audit life, to show up and just make the most of it now. Life hasn't always been tied with a bow, but it's still a gift and in many ways it's a miracle. No one is in charge of our happiness, but ourselves.....so when going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer. We get one shot at this life, there are no do-overs. It's never too late to reach a goal, seek happiness, find love and live your truth.
Holiday Images:
The latter half of December and the first few days of January have always been party cetral for my family. So rather than write about all that went on, here are some pictures!
Jordan and Erika enjoying a moment in the living room -- this was shot on Jordan's birthday which is January 3.
Every year after Christmas, we have a "regifting" tradition.....just a fun thing where we choose a present we received that was so ridiculous or something we would never use and we wrap it up and "regift" it to each other for fun. Here is Taren opening up her regifted gift!
Hahahahaaa!! This was so funny. My mom's regift was a cell phone holder in the shape of a shoe! Hilarious.
Jordan turns 21! He has turned out to be quite a capable young man with a bright future. I am so proud of him and all he has accomplished.

The family stayed overnight at the hotel, this is breakfast the morning after.
Bacon, Sausages and Eggs -- the kids were hungry after dancing the night away.
Thumbs up. Another great new Year's party, can't wait for next year!

More detaisl will follow but here is sneak peek at one of the cards we will make in class. This event will focus on Sale-A-Bration which starts on Januray 24.
