Welcome to 2012

Happy 2012! 

I hope you all had a beautiful festive season. I had a wonderful time off. I took nearly two weeks off work, and just lazed about. We caught up with friends, had loads of playdates, went swimming, went to the beach. It was perfect.

So, now I'm back I am wondering what I will do with this little blog this year. I am taking a break from scrapbooking and crafting at the moment. I haven't scrapbooked since last September. To be honest, I marvel that I ever carved out the time for it last year! It was manic. I was really struggling for time. Life is much calmer and focussed now that I no longer have crafty commitments. I am more centred. It feels good.But I do miss my crafting outlet. It took a while for that feeling to come back. I wondered if it would. But it seems to, bit by bit. So who knows what 2012 holds?

I am doing a 366 day photo challenge at the moment, and I contemplated using my blog for that. In the end though, I've decided to use facebook, so I you want to see my 2012 in photos, friend me on facebook (see my sidebar). This was my photo yesterday:


So I guess that my blog will evolve during the year. Some photos, some snippets about us, about us and a little bit of crafty stuff. 

I do have a couple of scrapbooking pages that were published recently. I'll be back with them soon.
