A visual tour of 2011

So, here's a quick recap of the last year, in pictures, because I'm lazy.

Spent a week in Washington, DC. I heart museums!

Met Martha Stewart. (Um, so awesome!)

Finished up my job at McCallie School at the end of July. Promptly got a Kindle and started to catch up on years' worth of leisure reading.

Went on a all-expenses paid trip to the Bahamas with the bestie, courtesy of Arbonne!

Built an incredible team of Arbonne ladies! So proud of them!

Spent some time with another bestie in one of my favorite places - Los Angeles, California!

Wrapped up the year with a quiet Christmas at home and added a new dish to our yearly "must-haves" - Figgy pudding! It was so good!

It was a busy year and very full year, but in a good way. Can't wait to see what God has in store for us in 2012!

And then it was 2012

So, years ago, I was a writer. I blogged. I wrote for newspapers. I wrote for websites. I wrote long, boring papers for grad school. I blogged some more.

And then I ran out of words.

But after I ran out of words, I discovered I was good at other things, too. I started my own business, and then I ran out of time, too, because I was working really hard at two jobs. But after about a year, I got to quit my desk job, and work from home, just running my little business.

And then I stopped writing altogether. I kind of forgot how. And why.

And suddenly it was 2012.

I don't really believe in new year's resolutions, so I'm not going to resolve to start blogging every day again or anything. But I've got some fun crafty ideas to share, and maybe some theological discussions, a few fun trips to take this year, and perhaps even some business ideas to hash out. And so, if anyone cares and would like to join me, please do! I'd love to do life together with you, even if just in a small, shallow, internet-based sort of way.

Here's to discovering new places, new things, and new ideas together in 2012. :)
