Happy New Year! I meant to come up with a New Year post that just said Happy New Year, but after I made one for my business blog, I got distracted with the festivities and totally forgot, so HAPPY New Year!
We are really excited about the new year in the Snyder house and all the possibilities it brings. Already today, I booked a new 2012 client for my wedding planning business, made Mini a headboard (post to follow) and the house is still clean from top to bottom (we cleaned before the New Year cause of an old wives tale). I also made 2 dinners for this week, and Mike and I made sure to eat some pork (another old wives tale about the New Year). Additionally, I've already written 5 blog posts for this week and have decided to spend more time blogging for both my blogs. I don't know if anyone is reading them, but, I will write anyway, maybe someone cares.
Now, onto last year. Last year was a year of many different challenges and tons of highs and lows. For those that know me personally, they know that I made a MAJOR life decision early last year, and I haven't had any regrets since. I traveled to London, Ireland and Germany with Mini for some personal time and to plan a wedding (promise to blog about that sometime soon). Mini started middle school and has had a FANTASTIC year so far! My bff (shall remain nameless) became pregnant, we find out this week what she is having (I know this isn't my personal "triumph", but she's my bff and I happy for her). I planned a lot of great events, was published in a few publications and blogs (you can read about them on my business blog) and capped off the year by decorating a celebrity home for the holidays (I decorated for LaLa and Carmelo Anthony - thanks Mindy for referring me), which is one of my biggest passions (interior decorating), so it was exciting for me. All in all, we had a great year in our house. We had some lows as well, but why discuss them, they are the past, and we don't need to bring them up.
I am excited about 2012 for SO many reasons, but mostly because I feel it in my bones that this will be a good year for us! Not to say we've had a lot of bad years, because we have our health and we have each other, so I'm not complaining. But 2012 will be great. I am going to work on pursuing my interior decorating passion a bit more (in my spare time), and I am REALLY going to work on sharing it all with you. I have a lot of home projects that I am doing my best to capture on camera (regular and sometimes iPhone), we have TONS of recipes to post, Mini will REALLY start blogging and we are going to share a bit more of our personal lives with you. We hope you enjoy and stick around for the ride. With that, I have to work on tweeking our blog post for tomorrow and get Mini ready for bed. So good night, and I really hope that you have a WONDERFUL New Year. I hope today was just a glimpse of the year for you, if it was spent relaxing, I hope you relax all year. If it was spent eating, I hope you eat all year. If it was spent with family, laughing and having good times, I hope you have those good times ALL YEAR!
2012 will be OUR best year yet!
