this year i...

Yeah....I've been slacking.  I've been holding off on some posts until after the launch of The Shiny Happy, but there has been some delay.  Then I just got in a funk of doing other things.  But, I'm back!!!  This post is a little late, but hey....it's still January! :)

Kaylah over at The Dainty Squid has an annual post that she has done called, "This Year I..."  Once I read it, I was motivated to create my own post to document the things I've done this year.  Big & small.  So thanks to her, I present my 2013 list.

This year I...

-started off the New Year as a newlywed in a new city with a new job.

-enjoyed the "I Love You Because..." board from my little sis.

 -bought new furniture with the mister.
