2012...

Happy New Year!  It's hard to believe it's 2012, and we all go back to our regular schedules on Wednesday...sigh.  As I write this, I am in front of our wood burning stove, my hubby is on his comp searching ski deals, the boys have been out playing hockey in the snow.  Yes, we received our first snow this evening and a BIG 1 inch. Growing up in Michigan, that's not much, but here in East Tennessee, it's a lot!!! Yippie!

 Now that we have begun a new year, I really need to make some heart changing changes! I don't like making New Year's resolution but I rather enjoy compelling a list of goals. Goals that I know I can succeed at reaching...you guessed it- this blog is on that list.  I have my regular list of blogs that I find so inspiring that every time I read those, I feel guilty about how I have not done my best on keeping this blog up.  So, once again, I am going to give it a try...Along with building a chicken coop and raising chickens! I have learned so much over these past two weeks about myself, my kids, our family as a WHOLE! With that being said... Let's begin!
