A new year...

Happy New Year to all my lovely readers.

We celebrated at home. Simple, and peaceful, there's no place like home.
I'm happy to start a new year; with new possibilities, challenges, and goals. 

I didn't make any resolutions; I honestly just want to stay committed to my current goals. Maintaining good health, keeping my faith alive, staying positive, and having a happy home. 

Our home is a place where memories are made, laughter is heard, and a place where we feel completely free. This year; I want to finish a few projects we started. Organizing, researching new healthy recipes, and a few others. 

I want to thank you all for being a part of my blog and sharing in my happiness. Embracing life's little moments. I hope you all have a beautiful year.

    Thanks Stephanie! I'm hoping this new year brings joy and happiness. I am glad you all had such a wonderful celebration. If you have tips on organization I'm always looking for them, I sit on pinterest trying to find ways to keep my house in order. It is slowly getting there.

      Dina, Happy New Year! You're very welcome. Of course I could give you some tips on organization. For started, tackle one room at a time. Start with clearing, and throwing out things you no longer need. -Reuse bins, boxes,-etc. Often times; I will clear out a room or area, then I will wipe down, and dust the area. We recently did our kitchen pantry. Sometime back we purchased some airtight containers. We used them to store flour, sugar, etc. Also in our daughters room we use bins with labels for her toys, learning books, and much more! =) Let me know if that helps a little.

Our Adventures.-The Denver Art Museum

We decided to take a day trip to explore the downtown Denver area. On this particular day, my husband and I were celebrating our 17th wedding anniversary and wanted to have a mini date that included time with the kids as well. Our adventure started with us eating at the Cheesecake Factory. We wanted to make sure our tummies were full before we took on this day trip. The food was amazing, and we just really enjoyed this time together.  The weather wasn't so cold, but we still made sure to bundle up in warm coats. The Denver Art Museum is located in the Civic Center of downtown Denver. I also learned that this museum is one of the largest art museums between the West Coast, and Chicago. -We learn something new each day. This was actually our first time visiting the art museum.  During our visit, we viewed some beautiful and very creative pieces of art.  This museum has 70,000 objects in the museum's collection. There are approximately 18,000 in the Nativ...
