You know it happens this time of the year.
Your brain ticking over, wondering if the year almost past was one well lived, wondering what all you want for the new year to come!
I'm a sucker for New Year goals, it gives me something to dream for, something to work for, something to aim for. I did good this year past, I got every single goal except for one crossed off my list, it has been a hard year, but you know what; I did goooood and all in all, it was a gooood year! :) I feel a sense of success and proudness knowing that I did so many things I wanted to do!
But now I'm starting to wonder what else I want to achieve, what else I want to learn, what else I want to challenge myself with. I'm still thinking ... new years ain't here yet, I have time :)
In the meantime, I'll just enjoy the beauty of xmas :)
We have been busy busy here, with the move to the new house and setting up everything that goes with that. But of course we found some time to just enjoy being a family while decorating the xmas tree ... or trying too, Lily decided that while she couldn't hang up the baubles, she could instead rip them from their base instead, but we got there, tree is up and looking pretty in pink and silver :)
On other news, I was very pleasantly suprised when I received my latest copy of Australian Scrapbook Ideas and saw a layout of mine on the FRONT COVER :) I also have a 5 page article in there, with plenty of tips on taking better photos. So if you are keen to have some time to relax, go and buy the magazine and have a cup of tea.
Here is my page that is featured on the front page! Seems like ages ago that that photo was taken, life was very different back then, think I was about 4 months pregnant with little Lily Belle. Amazing how quickly life can change, treasure each day for you never know what tomorrow has in store for you :)
Well I really just came over to my poor abandoned blog to wish you all a
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
Keep safe and enjoy the beauty of xmas!

I wanted to thank you for your ongoing inspiration. I recently just had a layout picked up for publishing in Scrapbooking Memories which was inspired by a layout you had posted on your blog earlier in the year. I have credited you in my 'materials' list of course, but wanted to let you know personally as well.
May your 2011 be all that you want it to be!!
