2011 Year in Review

2011 Was a Busy Year

I mothered 2.5 teenage boys -the best part of my life, worked a full time job, (some days it worked me) completed many new works of art, attended my share of art shows, participated in a few craft fairs, managed to take a couple vacations and spiritually grew closer to God ...
I have to say,
"Life is Good".
Yeah, Stressful at times, but good....
Of course there were times I wanted to pull my hair out.. more times I wanted to pull my kids hair out. LOL..In the 365 days of this past year I can say I've laughed, I've cried, I've cried from laughing, I've gained a bit more knowledge of how to live life.."With Love in my heart and God in my soul".
These are the times that makes us stronger...


A few images of my year in review...hope you enjoy~
