Happy 2017!  Hope everyone had an amazing new year’s.  We stayed home because #homebodies and we have kids.  It’s also husband’s birthday on NYE so we usually have a relaxing day with lunch out or dinner at his choice, an early celebration at home with the kids blowing horns and throwing confetti then tucking them into bed before 9. We drink wine, watch some TV and go to sleep early, and I wouldn’t have any other way. On New Year’s Day, we woke up to a winter wonderland – the first snow of the season in Issaquah!

Today I am sharing my 2017 goals as January is often filled with dreams, plans and hopes for the new year to come.

My personal and career goals for 2017 are:

  • Refinance our home – April/May 2017
  • Renovate our kitchen (I already have my Pinterest boards ready!) – May/June 2017
  • Plant and grow Dahlias in our garden
  • Save for our family vacation to Hawaii and stay at the Disney Aulani – May 2017
  • 10 year anniversary trip (Location Tbd, June 2018)
  • Rank in the top 3 of team at work and win Pinnacle Award – September/October 2017

My ongoing goals are to:

  • Continue to eat healthy as possible
  • Go on weekly hikes
  • Connect with friends on a monthly basis as our schedules allow
  • Enjoy as much quality time with hubby and kids
  • Keep home organized and uncluttered

I’m back to blogging! I started but never really started 8 years ago. I had a wedding blog which turned into a “newlywed life” blog, which turned into a “pregnancy journal/blog“. Then life happened, two house moves, selling two homes, purchasing a new home, four job changes, and two children later, I’m ready to blog again. I’ve grown personally and professionally since starting my first blog 8 years ago with my interests and priorities also evolving. Today, nurturing my family and creating a home are my first priorities while juggling a full-time career.

I am excited to get started again and share my passion for styling life. From interiors and outdoors, to wares to travel, and fashion and food, I’m looking forward to all the new adventures 2016 has in store for my family.
