Happy New Year!

I am embarking on a new project this year... actually I started Sunday. A picture a day for and entire year... I am looking forward to seeing what this year holds for our family. This kit comes with everything you need to complete the project and is as easy as slipping a photo in, a bit of journaling and you are done. I think I can keep up with that. Becky Higgins designed this kit and they are available here. {eta: the kit is sold out, but Becky put up a link for a digital version of the kit on her blog for those of you who still want to do this project.} I might share a week now and then. I think it will be neat to look back over an entire year to see where we have been, how we have grown and changed.

The last year has been an extremely rough year for our family. We lost my Grandmother to lung cancer this past July on my son's 5th birthday. So needless to say we have been faced with many difficult changes and adjustments. Here is my sweet Grandmother with my son on his 4th birthday exactly one year to the day before we lost her. These two had a very special bond. She was worried about how he would deal with not having her around... he really misses her! I feel so blessed that we had the time we had with her and that my children knew her so well.

I am hoping that the New Year brings a few less difficult times and possibly some new unexpected adventures. We shall see. Happy New Year!
