A new year, a new beginning.
It has been lovely to have a little bit of down time for a change after the craziness of 2011 - time to both reflect and reassess how to move forward in 2012. My mind is spinning with all I would love to do in the coming year - how do I achieve or even attempt all I would like to - how do I keep the balance right and come out sane at the other end! The question I am sure every parent who has a business or a passion for creative pursuits has.
I do start the year however with a clear vision that I need to focus on the things that are important to me and things I enjoy to do. I will ask for help if I need it and not worry if direction needs to change to suit the needs of my family and of course myself.
So while I continue to work out how best I achieve my goals here are some pictures of a few little things I threw together for our annual New Year's Eve party at home.
A Cheese Stack
A Champagne Punch in that lovely new drinks dispenser
Great friends and thanks to a pretty special location that our house lives on, a birds eye view of the Sydney Harbour Fireworks (sorry forgot to take pictures of that as I was too busy admiring!)
Thanks also to Kim from the Tomkat Studio for her free printables - they worked perfectly with my black and white theme.
One last thing - don't forgot to pop over to my store for the new year sale that is happening - lots of great bargins to be found!
