2011

Franco and I at Knott's Berry Farm on New Year's Eve

I am so behind on blogging, but have been too lazy to catch up. It's January 3rd and I'm back at work, sad that the holidays are over, but so incredibly grateful for the beginning of another year. I've been really looking forward to 2011. For one, we'll finally find out sometime in the next couple of months where Franco will be attending optometry school, so we'll be moving for sure come summer. That also means Franco will be graduating with his two Bachelor degrees, so I'm already planning a big bash in May after commencement. And who knows? Maybe this will be the year we'll turn our family from a duo to a trio. We haven't felt it's been the right time yet, but who knows what 2011 will bring. I don't want to work away from home anymore either, so I'll need to work hard to establish some kind of design/photography business this year, too. I'm so anxious about that and have no idea how to go about it, but if it's what we're supposed to do, I know it'll happen. We don't really like the idea of moving away from what we've known all our lives--families, friends, perfect Camarillo, historic Santa Barbara, but I welcome change and its challenges. How else would we grow? We think it's time, and we're very, very excited.

Happy, happy new year, family and friends! Thanks for riding through 2010 with us. Hope you'll join us in 2011, too!
