2012 really has been a great year. My husband got a new job, we have been relatively healthy, we got to take a big family trip to Florida, and we have truly enjoyed spending time with each other.
I am so thankful for all of the blessings God has poured out on my family this year. I am also thankful for each of you because you take the time to read what I have to say.
Blogging is a strangely fulfilling adventure. Several times each week I share with you bits and pieces of my life through recipes, craft projects, family updates, and other randomness.
While I don’t share every detail about my personal life in this space, you do know quite a bit about me.
I have been planning what I want to share with you in 2013 and I am hopeful that it will be my best blogging year yet.
Before I jump ahead to next year I thought it might be fun to take a look back at my posts from this past year.
