The Beginning...

My sister-in-law, B, recently started a blog because remembering your life is an great thing and I agree with her. So therefore it is time to start documenting what I do and how I feel. I hope this will be the first blog of many and through this I can share my experiences. My life is important and I have a hard time remembering it. 

I think recapping 2011 is an appropriate way to start off...

• We bought a house in which we are still working tirelessly on.
• I started quilting and I have made more then ten full size quilts.
• A very important relationship was repaired and is now better then ever.
• My nephew was born.
• And so many other details that I cannot think of...

2011 was an amazing year full of friends and family and I hope 2012 will be even better. The most difficult part of 2011 was buying the house. It was such roller coaster of emotion but in the end I ended with a place to set down roots and make a home. I love the house more and more each day and my amazing husby is always improving it. 

Working on a few friendships was really important during 2011. C was moved to a different school and that was really hard to cope with because we were so close during the 2010-2011 school year, but we have worked through that. Although we don't see each other as often I still consider myself extremely lucky to have her as a friend. B and I really improved our relationship and it has a been a great part of the my life and I am very thankful for it. 

Now on to 2012, what are my hopes for this year:

• Make a conscious effort to be healthier
• Get pregnant
• Keep working on the house
• Bring Tron home
• Do a triathlon 
• Learn how to relax

My life is fairly wonderful and I hope I end the year as happy as I have started it!
