A new year

So I’m only running a week behind on a new year’s post.  Not too bad, right?  2010 was a really great year, and I’m really excited to see what 2011 has in store for us!

In 2010, I turned 30, launched my photography business, Logan turned 5, we spent spring break with some of our best friends (the Inlows), Derek went skydiving, Camryn finally grew enough hair for real pigtails, Logan finished pre-k and Connor 1st grade, we grew tomatoes successfully in the backyard, Connor and I went to camp, we went swimming and wore ourselves out all summer long, Derek and I went to Hawaii, the boys went to Colorado, Camryn turned 2,  we took trips to Arlington, I went to Kansas for my sister’s wedding, we survived August (my least favorite month of the whole year), I sent a kindergartner and a 2nd grader off to school, my business grew and I experienced my first busy season, Connor turned 8 and we had a wonderful Christmas.  So many blessings this year and so many good memories!

In 2011, I will continue to grow my business and become the best photographer I can be.  I will read more, play more games with my family, and strive to parent with intention and patience.  I will run a half marathon.  I will pray more, read my bible more, continue going to bsf and find a bible study to do during the summer.  We’ll travel more as a family, with a trip to California in May and hopefully trips to Florida and Kansas as well.  I will take a photo every day this year and post it on my one frame a day blog.  I will finally start turning the previous years of my blog into a book.  I will scrapbook.   I will be happy.

Here’s to 2011.  I can’t wait to see what it brings!
