2010 Year in Review Mini-Album

I can’t believe another year has come and gone.  I thought it was just me thinking the year flew by, but thankfully many of my friends have expressed this same sentiment.

One of the things I’m hoping to work on in the coming year is to let go of my need to give 110% to every single thing I do all the time.  (more on this tomorrow) So today, to celebrate 2010 and take one baby step forward towards my goal in 2011, I created this year in review mini-album.

I chose 12 pictures from the year and challenged myself to use only the paper and embellishments in my stash AND (here’s the real challenge) to spend no more than two hours putting it together.  To not obsess that every page is perfectly composed and every little bit and piece is perfectly placed. 

It was incredibly liberating and fun not holding myself to ridiculous, self-imposed standards!041

I am looking forward to 2011 and wish you all a very happy, prosperous, hopeful, and peaceful new year.

Happy New Year!  Kelly

About Me

Hi There! I’m Kelly. I am a wife, mom, light seeker, homemaker, and storyteller. From an empty nest to an abundant life, all it took was a little time, a lot of faith, and the courage to see my life differently.

You can read more about my story here.

So now, armed with my trusty Canon camera, here is where I share my journey to live an inspired and intentional life.

Welcome to my little corner of the interwebs!
