Happy New Year!

Happy New year to you all!

You know . . .  in the newspaper and on the news they keep talking 
about how people are so happy to see 2011 leave.
I don't agree . . . 
2011 meant that I had another wonderful year to spend with loved ones,
it meant fun times with friends, laughs and giggles, 2011 had it's challenges, but husband now has 2 new knees and is ready to dance a jig!
2011 also meant another year in business, for which i am grateful adn grateful to all f you for making that possible . . . 
so you see, I don't want to look on 2011 as something to be rid of . . .  I want to cherish the memories!

 I  look forward to 2012 for more of the above!
(less the knee thing of course!)  :-)


Lacy, Michael and I wish for you only good things in 2012!
Be healthy, be happy!

Peace,
Lori Ann

...What a lovely way to look at it! Usually I always see the cup as half full but for some reason I am one of the ones happy to see 2011 go. I am grateful for the life, the love, the laughter lived in the year but the challenges proved to much to bear.

...Here's wishing you a very Happy New Year! My hope is the new year is filled with love, happiness, prosperity and good health for you, Mr. Dancing Feet and your family. ;o)

...Love the photo too! Such a sweet face. :o)

...Peace & Blessings

Thank you, Lori, for reminding us that we shouldn't wish life away.
It's too precious.
Blessings,
Susan

Very wise and insightful perspective my friend...wow - two new knees? I'd be grateful if we could just get the one of my son's back in working order....Wonderfully adorably photo of Lacy....the crown is so fitting! Wishing you and yours a wonderfully blessed 2012.....Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin
