Happy New Year! Some Updates and some Winners!! A time to reflect and a time to remember!

A time to reflect and a time to remember!

Happy New Year to all my friends! I want to say Thank You to all my blogging friends, and how much I am looking forward to 2014! I think this year we are all saying what happened to 2013?? 

Every year I like to take just a moment to Thank all my blogging friends that have taken the time to visit, comment and check in on me! This has probably been my hardest year, I am raising 2 Pre-Teen girls... need I say more?? LOL! I have slacked on visiting from just pure exhaustion some days! I attempt daily to find the balance but let's face it between a family, job, chores, kids, and every responsibility in between that is not an easy task. I am still 100% committed to our fitness, and this has taken some time out of my crafting but it is worth it. You can check out my running blog HERE. So thank you for all understanding my shorter visits! I promise to get back on track!


I didn't post any resolutions last year, so here are  my resolutions for this year:

Find a good balance to have it all

Keep running! ( I ran 715 miles in 2013!)

To Remember:

This day is always a day for me to remember my Dad. He unexpectedly passed away 1-1-00.
Fourteen years is a long time to miss someone.
Not a single day goes by that I don't think of him and all that he has missed.

Announcements: 

I will be staying on with Docerela Creations and 3 Girl Jam! I am excited to showcase their products and hope you will all join in on the fun challenges!

This was super fun to make! I have had this retro paper since last year, Paper reflections Modern Palette, and thought it was perfect for the Martini! I used a real toothpick for the olive and a stamp from Studio G
