Highlights from Christmas & A Gift
Christmas 2011 was extremely exciting for me.
This was the first year that my son had any clue what was going on, so that was extremely exciting.
He is only 15 months old and received a guitar collection, and MEGA BLOCKS, of course!
My husband rocks and I got a new camera, computer, and other awesome gadget!

Happy New Year!
Happiness Day is TODAY!
Today was very frustrating to me.
I won’t go into many details.
All I will say is this: People should be more thankful!
No matter your situation, there is always something to be thankful for.
It saddens me to see that this is the world my son will grow up in.
In light of this, I have decided to start a new project.
I want to make a difference and make the world a happier place!
Enter: BEAUTIFUL IMPERFECTION: life is perfect, even when its not!
As I’m sure you have read before, Beautiful Imperfection is my mommy blog.
Its kind of cute too (I’m proud of it)
Here, I am going to start a challenge. A challenge to be a positive inspiration to people.
To encourage others to be happier.
To encourage others to look around them and see what they have to be thankful for.
I will share with you when the details are complete.
Now for some fun!
I have decided to follow in an old family tradition with NighLon.

Organize With Sandy has become one of my favorite blogs.
Like I said before, organizing has not been my thing lately.
Its hard to believe that I was at one time the most organized person I know.
The sad part is, I have no clue what happened.
On to Sandy. She is wonderful. She is talented. She is a geek. She is organized.
What could be better? When I read her blog, I often think…
“Oh yeah, she is genius… I want to be her when I finally grow up!”
Not only will you find ways of organizing; stories about being a mom and a wife; and definitely some motivation!
