WELCOME TO 2020!!

A new year and a new decade! I'm not sure how I'm feeling about that yet :)

I love fresh starts. A new year, a new season, a new month. I need to work the feeling down to new weeks and new days, but I'm quite there. There is a whole year ahead, unspoiled by any bad news, heartache, or tears. I can see it in my mind like a pristine line of white, stretched out before me, full of promise and anything can happen!

Right off the bat, I have some things I'm super excited about for January. For one thing, I get to go to Nebraska to see my friend and my godkids!!! I've never been to Nebraska before (or Iowa), so that's exciting, but on top of seeing them, I will get to meet an Instagram friend in person! I am so excited for that!

Speaking of meeting people, I'm hoping to get together with a girl who lives in my area. We have a ton of people in common that we know and we are both photographers. She has a really busy schedule though, so it was challenging in the fall and then during the holidays to find a time to meet.

It's still up in the air, but either this month or next, my brothers and I are going out to Grand Rapids to see our friends. The goal is to see their sporting events, but that's a question mark at this point :)

A new development for this year that has been a long time coming is that one of my best friends and I finally have a standing meet-up time once a month! It's been hard finding time for each other as we've moved into adult lives, so I'm thrilled to have this on the calendar!!!!

Those are the main things I have coming up in January. My newsletter will be coming out next week, so if you want to be signed up for that, you can go to the top of the page under 'Contact', or click here.

What are you looking forward to about the new year and January? Do you have a word of the year or any big goals?
