cheers to a new year


Christmas vacation went by too fast but it was fabulous and I am grateful for all the time I was able to spend with my family! I finally took down the tree and packed away all the beautiful decorations. Jeremy took down the outside lights. It's always so sad when it's time to take everything down...

With the new year, and post-holiday zest, i have been cleaning. purging. and simplifying. I am attempting to de-clutter my life, only keeping things in our home that are necessary and utilizing the space that we have. We even managed to move Andrew into his own room, which is a big deal!! I lOVE starting the new year in a clean, organized, fully stocked house.



This is a brand new year, it’s like this huge blank canvas waiting to be painted with a beautiful story... I am going to love every second that I get with my husband and children this year whether it’s preparing dinner, driving them to activities or just hanging out at home, I want to live in the moment and soak it all in.

Cheers to twenty.thirteen!

XOXO

It was my first time to look at it. I am addicted to Its overflowing blog spot and remembered you saying you had one so I googled it. You've done a great job on it. It's comical, fun, and precious.
