A happy new year to you my lovely friends. I hope you had a great time over the holidays and it was filled with my three favourite F's - Food, Family and Fun.
Here we are, a week into January and I know that this year is going to fly by just as quickly as 2016 did. We have a very busy year ahead of us and I'm determined to do two things 1. Be productive and 2. live in the moment. I've been learning to master this balance over 2016. It's not easy and I'm not there yet but I'm better and I'll keep improving.
Here's what we're working towards and putting out there to the universe for this year. With the aim of being a better blogger this year, these are the kind of things I'll be documenting on the blog so stay tuned.
Travel
We have our first big trip of the year already planned and have been thinking about what else we could book in for the rest of the year. In April we'll be heading back out to Australia with a stop over in Singapore. We've had this booked for quite a few months and it's felt like such a long time away, however now that we are in 2017 the countdown feels real and I'm so excited. I'm also thinking I would love to take the family to Dubrovnik, Croatia. I've been there before by myself and loved it so much. I could only be so lucky to take my family and explore with them - so I'll keep hopeful that we'll be able to make it happen and keep you in the loop.
Home Improvement Projects
We've got a few exciting things in the pipeline in terms of house projects. This gives me heart palpitations because you guys know how much I love making a house a home. We have already delayed one big loft conversion project that was meant to happen last year and we'll hopefully be able to do really soon. There's some other exciting things in the pipeline that haven't yet come to fruition so I'm not going to say too much - but it's really exciting!!
Family Time
This is always my number one priority and will continue to be. I will continue to spend as much quality time with my daughter as I can. I will also make more of an effort for husband and wife time. We really sucked at that last year and we have both made an agreement that we'll be better in 2017. We are the foundation to our family and need to be strong. Let me just put this one out there.... After feeling very unsure on the timing of baby number 2, I feel like this is the year that I would like to get pregnant. Eeeek!
Cooking
My husband will be the first to say that I was winning in the cooking delicious dinner stakes in the first part of the year but definately dropped the ball in the last part of the year. I've been rotating the same quick meals for quite a few months now and it's time to put my chef hat back on, do some awesome meal planning and get back in the kitchen for real. I will also be making time for recipe developing and posting my creations on the blog again. Watch this space.
I think that sums things up nicely. I'm so hopeful and excited for what 2017 will bring us and I'll try and share as much of it as I can.
What are your plans for 2017?
Catch you all really soon.
