This was a pretty rad year for our family. Two of the greatest things happened for me, Olivia was accepted into
her French school and we took
our AMAZING trip to Europe over the summer. I was super fortunate to attend
Le Dîner en Blanc in Paris!! We took a few road trips to
Palms Springs and
San Francisco. I am in disbelief of how fortunate I am.
There were a few downsides this year, I didn't post much about them on my blog but I touched upon them in
this post. Overall, 2014 was awesome. I am super excited for the new year. I haven't made a list of resolutions but I am hoping to stick to
my Aspiration List. So far, I have already bought a new camera. I got so tired of complaining about the quality of my photos so I found a great deal on a
Nikon D3300 dslr at Samy's Cameras. Hopefully I won't drop this one!

These are Liv's school portraits. This was the first time I wasn't there when she took her class photos but I knew she would be fantastic. |
This photo pretty much kills me. I know life with Liv has only been four years but I've never felt so much joy, so much fulfillment being able to spend my days with her and so much love for my rad family. I am so stoked for 2015. I know it will be another remarkable year!
