2011 was like many others. There was a lot of good things, and a lot of sad. But that really is life, and luckily I am surrounded with love and wonderfulness that the sad seems only a glimpse of the entire view. In 2012, I hope to live in the now and inspire those around me to do the same with roots and wings. Here’s looking back, enjoying, accepting, and moving forward moment by moment.

2011 Moments:
I committed to bringing the boom and the shakalaka.
I took a leap of faith with my career, leaving a job I loved to grow and work on even more amazing projects.
I lost arguably the most influential woman in my life, my Grandma Betty. But she left with me the desire to live with love, everyday, and trust that that will always be enough.
I fell in love with photography, and shot a wedding, a baby mama, and few other lovely amazing things.
I let go of talking to myself badly, and committed to toning it up. This literally was life changing, and I’ve never been healthier, mind, body and soul. Here are a few of tips I found to be most helpful in this process, and how I stay balanced.
I started a job I truly love.
I perfected protein pancakes, and discovered the Almond Joy Smoothie.
Found the most amazing running buddy in the world!
And overall, had a fantastic year. One in which I am truly grateful for. I miss you Grandma, but I feel you when I dance and simply enjoy life. Thank you to my hubs, my family, and my best beezies for making me laugh, and making it ridiculously easy to love my life, everyday. Lots of love to you and yours in 2012.
