Happy New Year!

By Cate @finally4ever

My New Years was full of family time, so I’m not going to apologize for not posting. ;)

We had a great night/day. My Mom was awesome and watched Shannon so Mike and I could have a date (SAY WHAT?!) and do some shopping. Shannon was in bed by 8 and Mike and I got all caught up in catching up on Once Upon a Time on Netflix while we waited for the ball to drop. Exciting, huh?

New Year’s Day we bundled up and went off to the barn to see Willow (and she was bug nuts crazy… this cold weather is turning them all into nutballs) then enjoyed more family time. Now it’s back to the grind, but I’m so lucky to have been able to spend the holidays with my favorite people!

I’m not usually one for resolutions. They seem to set me up for failure…but how about looking back on the whirlwind that was 2012!

January- We lost our beloved Wasabi on New Year’s Day. I still miss her, but since Willow was her Momma, I still feel like I have a piece of my dream.

We miss you lady!! <3
