Are you also feeling reflective today as 2013 comes to a close? I can’t help but look back and feel tremendously grateful. For great friends, family, health and your support. Thank you so much for coming along on this journey. And to everyone I’ve been lucky enough to meet this year, spend time with, the projects and parties I’ve had the opportunity to create, I am eternally grateful and thrilled for 2014. But first, cheers to 2013!

Video: Cheers 2013!

It’s funny, before we put this video together (you can make your own on Flipagram, if you’d like), both Fred Baby and I thought wow, what a year. But more like whoa, that year kicked our tails.

The nice thing about photos and Instagram is that you focus on capturing the best moments and it’s so nice to relive them later on, and it’s a great reminder of how tremendously lucky we are. Sure, there have been some lows with the highs (mostly on the medical front), but geez are we so fortunate to have figured out those hiccups and be on the upswing of things, and to have each other, our dear families and friends, a place to call home. Too blessed to be stressed. I wish for you the same. Here’s to enjoying every last moment of 2013!
