It's the start of a new year so it is time to reflect on the previous year and make resolutions. I feel I had a great 2010. Yeah, there were some down times but there were many more up times. I had some wonderful times with Trevor, Julia and Ariana over this past year. We had some great family times this past summer at the beach, hanging out in the pool, going for bike rides, and enjoying life. Trevor and I had an awesome time in Washington DC this past fall and we all had a blast ice skating at Campus Martius this winter. I want to continue that trend into 2011.
One goal is to do at least one family outing a month. There are some fabulous places I want to take the kids: the science museum, the natural history museum, the Henry Ford, Greenfield Village, DIA, planetarium, the zoo, Ann Arbor Hands on Museum, Cranbrook, Cosi Science Center, the State Capital, and many more but that is all I can think of off the top of my head.
I also want to take more pictures. Imagine that, me wanting to take more pictures. I want to go on more day photo excursions. I want to have an excursion once a month. I had such a wonderful time taking Ariana to Holland last October and spending the day with her just taking pictures. It is something I will treasure forever. I also want to take Julia on one of those trips. I will just have to work it around her dance schedule.
We have lots of things to look forward to this year: skiing at Boyne this February, watching the girls durning their ballet tea party in February and dance show in May, going to the west side of the state and hanging out at our favorite beach, playing in our pool, enjoying the blooms of all the beautiful tulips I planted, summer BBQs, bike rides through the neighborhood, smelling the bloom lilacs, relaxing with a nice bottle of wine from our favorite Michigan vineyard, enjoying the sunsets, and maybe even seeing a few sunrises. It is also Trevor and my 15 year anniversary and we are hoping to do something special. Maybe a trip in NYC?????
I intend to enjoy 2011 and make it the best year yet! I'll keep blogging so I can look back and remember all the fun, silly, and crazy things we did and said. Happy New Year!!!!
