Happy New Year!

Phew!  How great does a new year feel? I mean as much as I love Thanksgiving and Christmas and everything in between, it sure feels awesome to start a new year.  I love to deck the halls as much as the next gal, but seeing my home cleared out, striped down, free of all that glitters and shines, and ready to start a fresh new year is truly a tremendous feeling.  Are you with me?

How are you doing on New Year’s Resolutions?  Are you doing them? Keeping them?  I’m not big on resolutions to be honest.  I never know what to resolve to do different one year from another.  I mean who doesn’t want to eat healthier, be closer, or climb higher?

Here are some things that I do know this first week of 2013:

Simple Pleasures are the Best ||  I hope to see the small moments as clearly as the big moments.

 

Eating Clean Feels Great. || After 6 weeks of overindulging, eating clean is my biggest craving.

 

Reading Transports Me ||  I can’t get enough of Gone Girl right now.  You too?

 

Projects Inspire Me || My project list, some new + left from 2012, perfect for long winter days.

 

Family + Friends Fuel Me ||  I’m savoring our time in 2012 + excited for what’s to come in 2013.

 

This Blog Brings Me Joy || I started in June with a lil’ post on Father’s Day, 10,000 visits later it’s 2013!

 

My Little 5 || You make my world spin. 

 

Here’s to what I know for 2013.  If it’s half as good as 2012, it’ll be full of love + beauty with plenty of bumps along the way.  Thank you for coming along with me.  I hope you like the new design!
