Happy New Year's Eve to you!! Please excuse my lack of posts over the last week, as we have been traveling from DC to Mississippi to Alabama (currently still in Alabama visiting my in-laws) for the holidays! It has been a very exciting week filled with lots of memories! We welcomed the sweetest Maltipoo puppy, Brady, into our family over Christmas, and my love for the little guy is out of this world! He is a mess, but I can't imagine my life without him now! I know you dog lovers know the feeling. He is ADORABLE, and I can't wait to share some more pictures of him on the blog soon!
There is no doubt that this has been a big year! Looking back on 2016, I am so grateful for everything it brought to me! I turned the big 3-0 this past May, celebrated three years of marriage with my better half, said goodbye to some beloved family members, welcomed new little ones into the family, and... most of all, I took a leap of faith and followed my heart and passion in starting this blog. Thank you for all of the support over the last few months since getting this blog up and running! I have enjoyed every second of it, and I am so grateful and appreciative to you for following along! I am so excited for 2017, and I can't wait to continue this journey with you! I look forward to a new year full of some more travel, fashion, and fun! My greatest wish for the new year is for continuous health! As each year passes, I am reminded of how much sometimes that I truly take for granted my health! One thing I have found that seems to be so simple, yet it can be so hard is to take some time out for yourself. After balancing work, family, and friends - there really seems to be no time left over. It's the constant struggle, am I right?! However, over the last year, I have found that taking just a little time out to treat yourself to some personal time can make a world of difference. Whether it means, going to your favorite workout class, getting a mani/pedi, or going on a walk after a long day... it can be so very good for the soul! Cheers to you and best wishes for a happy and healthy 2017!! Much love!! XO
