Hello 2010...

Before the clock strikes midnight on this New Year's 2010 and I forget to announce it here, our new blog is live. Check it out and leave a comment so I can make sure our fun comment boxes are working. :)

Goodbye 2009...

On Facebook today I read so many status updates saying good riddance to 2009. For many it was a less-than-great year of ups and downs. I could say the same about my 2009, since the year had its range of events and emotions, but in my book it's been a great year.

Here's 2009 in a nutshell:

• A vacation to California to see friends and family
• An unexpected job loss
• An unexpected call back from the company
• Strengthening my passion for our business and my goals
• The launch of our new website
• Teaching my first semester at a new college
• The opening of our Etsy shop
• Learning so much about myself and business
• The celebrations of friends having little ones
• Much, much more.

The past year has been such a learning experience, and I'm thankful for it and the blessings Dan and I have received. I know, such sappiness. I'm leaving 2009 behind with a positive farewell, and looking forward to all that 2010 may bring.

Happy 2010.

Testing, changing, testing...

Dan and I are doing more work on the new blog today, and I can't wait to reveal it tomorrow. We have been testing things, changing things, making sure things are user-friendly and self-explanatory, and adding some more functionality. I also need to figure out what to write for my first post there. Talk about the pressure of having a blank canvas.
