P365 - 2016 - Day 366/BONUS DAY - Goodbye 2016
P365 - 2016 - Day 366/BONUS DAY - Goodbye 2016
Here I sit at my computer as another year is drawing to a close.... Somehow the years seem to be racing by at a faster pace these days. I swear we were just ushering in this year with all of its possibilities and here we are now looking back on it in its final moments. 2016 was a year full of so much...I hope I captured all of it - or much of it - in this blog - the big moments and the small ones as well, the happy and the sad.... I want to remember them all. I had the privilege of watching these three amazing people, through another year, grow and learn and spread their wings. They will forever be my greatest accomplishment and I love to watch all of theirs...even if I wouldn't mind them slowing down just a bit. So, as we are in the final hour and ready to welcome a new year, my hope, as always, is for health, happiness, love, and laughter. I look forward to all that 2017 has in store for us and just ask that it is kind. And with that, I need to close another blog and go join my favorite people.... Goodbye 2016 and thanks for the memories. Hello 2017....

P365 - 2016 - Day 365 - preparation
In preparation for new year's, I did one of my favorite things.... I organized my calendars and got the "year in the life" forms out from last year and new ones printed for this year. This is one of my favorite things we started doing. I wish we would have done this for longer. I love this time to reflect on what we have done and where we have been and plan for all of the opportunities in the new year.

I would be remiss if I did not post a photo of this year's holiday beach badge. Christmas is over, so I am officially ready for summer. My badges are waiting.

P365 - 2016 - Day 363 - new ride
P365 - 2016 - Day 363 - new ride
To say that My Wonderful Husband does a lot of driving is a bit of an understatement. Every week during the fall and spring semesters he drives to and from VA - almost 5 hours each way. Add to that traveling to soccer games all of the state with our three kid. Yes, I take up some of the travel slack in the soccer department, but this guy is in a car quite a bit. So it was no shock that his 5 year old car had about 150,000 miles on it. The fact that he was in two accidents - a deer hit him and then he had an unfortunate collision with a rather large raccoon - didn't help the situation with the car. It was time for him to get a new car. Well, in this case, he got a "new to him" car but this preowned Ford Focus is pretty sweet and when he discovered that his surf boards fit perfectly in the hatchback he was even happier with the purchase. He is thrilled with his new ride!

After my run, I walked up to the beach because it felt like April and I needed to breathe in the salt air.
