Hello All and Happy New Year!
We had a fantastic evening last night with some good friends, food, drinks and games! My throat is raw and my stomach is sore from laughing... it is a good kinda pain!
Well last year was pretty crazy for our family... frankly I can't believe it is over actually. It seemed like it would never end. It was definitely a year of anticipation mixed with fear and excitement!
We just had our daughter and she was a challenging newborn. The women that took care of my Jackson for 5 years was moving away. We moved from our house of 10 years (our first home and the home we brought both our children home too) only to a street away but still very emotional!
Jackson started school full time, Abby began her new daycare and I went back to work knowing there would be no more maternity leaves in my future!
Thinking about 2012 as we settle into our new home, I have decided to choose a word for this year... Pause.
I want to remember to pause before each decision and make sure that what I am saying yes too is purposeful... for me, and my family.
Here's to a great year! :)

Happy New Year, girl!
That is an amazing word, my friend! Here's to a wonderful 2012.
Now I just need to continue making my word, Simplify, work for me.
Happy New Year.
Happy New Year Dee!! Definitely a great word to live by . . . followed by "and appreciate life"!
Hope you don't pause too much from your crafty greatness!
Great word! You did have a challenging 2011!
Happy New Year!! What a great word!
when you wake up with everything you thanked god for yesterday...i think you already pause, dee:) happy new year!
Excellent word, we could all use a little of bit of that.
It was certainly a busy year for you! Love your word - we should all pause more often!

You did live a whirlwind in 2011! I hope that 2012 is everything your are hoping for.
My word for 2012 is 'enjoy'. Rather than just going through the motions, I want to take the time to enjoy everything I love.
Love the word you chose for this year... I think in some way it can apply to all of us! I wish you and your family only the best in the coming year!
Happy New Year Deanna...Make it a great one!!!
