Happy New Year!  As I drove back home to Los Angeles after spending time with family and friends in San Diego for the holidays I thought about the beginning of a new year, 2011.  New Year's resolutions are an interesting thing.  I find that I make a resolution and am very good at following through with it until about early February.  Every year I try to think of something that will last the whole year.  I'm still working on that...  This year a good friend of mine gave me the idea to take a picture each day and post it.  Initially I figured I would use Facebook as my avenue, but then I thought about doing a blog.  Why a blog?  Why not?!  I think it is important to be appreciative and I am hoping that throughout this year as I upload a picture each day I will do so with thankfulness.  There will difficult pictures, too, but I know that through each of those God is teaching me something.  I look forward to this year and can't wait to see all the things God will have done!
