Oh Hi there, 2012…

1 Jan

Congratulations – we made it to 2012! And what a year  2011 was for most of us it was…. However, in our household, we are done with looking back and are firmly looking forward to all the new memories that 2012 will hold. The challenges, the tears, the laughter, the love. And we start, with our 52 in 52. Things we want to see come to reality this year – from the insane, to the serious, to the very ‘in joke’…

    Awesome list Lyndal. I particularly love, change someone’s life, drink a bottle of moet, and complete Deb’s simplify challenge. I am hoping to get on board with that one too. xx
