Cheers To A New Year



It is hard to believe that the chapter on 2012 has came to a close. It seems that was gone in a blink of an eye.

2012 allowed us to get to know some of our fellow bloggers even better and foster some wonderful friendships. I have participated in the correspondence club hosted by Nnenna this year where I have not only gotten to know how absolutely wonderful Nnenna is but have also been introduced to the lovely Christine and Ashlie. We had the opportunity to host giveaways sponsored by SimaG and Tresa Jewelry. We entered into a partnership that we are excited to announce in the upcoming weeks. Our first guest posts went up this (and are in the process of arranging more we promise) by Ashley, Priscila, Mimi, and Satu. To end the year off we hosted a successful Christmas Card Exchange and were touched by the participation by the amazing ladies who took part.

I am still undecided how I feel about New Year's Resolutions so instead me and Jessica have vowed to put even more effort into knocking off items on our 101 in 1001 days lists that we each drafted earlier this year. We have already made progress on our lists by attending our first ballet (we've actually been twice and have tickets to go again in March, we have to admit we are kind of in love with the ballet now), starting to journal (we purchased Keel's Simple Diary, her's is green and mine is pink), have done a few random acts of kindness each), hosted a game night, went thrift shopping for the first time, I've picked up my game when it comes to reading books (this has never been a problem for Jessica), cleaning out our closets and donating what we no longer need, and we have tried several new fruits and veggies.

Thank you for sticking with us during last year and thanks to the new readers we picked up along the way. We hope that 2013 is a wonderful year for each of you.
