Oh my goodness one year gone and another one started! It's weird the tricks that time plays on you. 2011 seems like it has flown by, but at the same time when I think of where I was and what I was doing last January it seeks like forever ago. On New Years Eve we all went around in a circle and said a few or our highlights of 2011. We all know how much I love making lists so here going my first list of this year... a list of my highlights from the year 2011.

Wow, it really was a wonderful year! I'm so glad for all of my experiences and for all of the people I was able to interact with. There were many trials and times of growths but progress was made. That is the most important part. Now with a new year it has been a perfect opportunity to re-evaluate and look at where I want this next year to take me. There are many roads that need to be traveled and many more choices to make. I would tend to argue that this new year is going to be one that will change and shape my life more than anyone so far. Thank goodness for a loving Heavenly Father who will help lead and guide me through this year. I'm so excited for the new adventures that await me! Hello 2012!
P.S. Sorry about no pictures but they were being a pain and if you really want to see them look on facebook or past blogs. :)
