With the New Year upon us, life continues to evolve and change. There are times when you feel things shifting. Though nothing is physically happening, you can feel it in the air around you.

ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
ReplyDeleteaw shucks, you guys will get even a more perfect house next year! :)
Sorry you lost out on the house bid, but something better will come along. I remember being so sad not to win a bidding war on a lovely Victorian and now years later, I realize that house would have put us in debt and the neighborhood quickly deteriorated anyway. So, in the long wrong we're better off. Hopefully, you'll find the right place for your soul to grow and thrive soon!
ReplyDeleteAlso, love the inspirational photos and my heart skipped a beat when it came upon the sewing books!

A space with trees and room for a bigger garden . . . yes! It is going to happen for you, even if this house was not the one. There is another out there - for sure!
ReplyDeleteFantastic! All the best to you and your family, Nicole.

That is a gorgeous yard! I am sorry it didn't work out. But now you will be looking and I am sure you will find something amazing. We are still house hunting but we will have to put a pause on it for awhile. It is hard to find exactly what you want but we'll hang around here until we do. Your garden inspiration is fun and pretty. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI have that "Life isn't about . . . " quote on a little wooden sign and it is always somewhere in my decor. 2013 was a big year of change for each member of our family. Some of the changes were scary, but the risks proved worth it.
ReplyDeleteI am excited to be reading about the ups and downs of finding a home with property. I see a completely new life for your family and perhaps a business for you when you land on that big property. Good luck!
So sorry you didn't get the bid on the home, but I feel you'll continue looking, which is exciting. It will be fun to watch where this new year will take you and where you'll be one year from now. You go girl!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year.

Lovely post, sorry you did not get the home but......a new year ..... new chances! Of course the picture with your kids near the water is favourite, your are so good in making beautiful images of them.
ReplyDeleteWish you and your family a Happy and Prosperous New Year!
Sorry you didn't get the house there is obviously something better just round the corner loving the pics my fav is the garden with stepping stones. Happy New Years xxxx
ReplyDeleteSorry it didn't work out for you - I'm sure the right thing will come along. Looking to make some changes here too for 2014. Have a Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteYou will eventually find the place right for you. We always felt, with big city living for work, we had to put our dreams on hold. Now I think we should have tried harder, a lot harder, to find a way. I am so glad you are going for it.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year beautiful lady! I have always believed things happen for a reason, there must be something for you just around the corner, perfect for you and your family xo
ReplyDeleteSorry that it didn't work out for you this time, but I am proud of you for trying too!! Sometimes one thing isn't meant to be because there is something that is better coming just around the corner, so I hope that is the case for you dear Nicole. Best wishes for a wonderful 2014 for you and your family, whatever it may bring! xx
ReplyDeleteAw! what a shame. You need to keep going with the shifting feeling then you will be ready for anything. Keep dreaming friend. So glad I found you this year. Happy New Year Jo x

Love your very inspiring New Year's post, Nicole! Now I want to run out and do something amazing....like run back in...:) It is very cold out today. I know that feeling of desiring a change and feeling that shift in perspective and thinking...it is very powerful when it takes hold. It sounds like you are going forward on a wonderful new adventure for your whole family - I can feel the excitement. Good for you and your sweet Beans - I have no doubt you will accomplish all of your dreams. The very best to you and your loved ones and may all your dreams come true in the coming New Year, Nicole! Hugs xo karen
ReplyDeleteSorry you missed out on the house....our path to buying this house started out with trying to buy my grandmother's old house and it not working out--it was a disappointment, but it opened us up to looking for other possibilities, and we're really happy with how it worked out, so I think your attitude about the whole thing is perfect. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteThanks for those wise words, Nicole. Those are wonderful images for planning and dreaming, Nicole. May your fondest dreams and aspirations become reality!
ReplyDeleteWishing you happiness and success in the New Year.
ReplyDeleteGreat words for the new year! Since retiring in May, I've set some creative goals and made myself try new things. Stretching yourself really does help you grow!! Happy 2014 to you and your family!!
ReplyDeleteI love how positive but real this post is. :o) I'm a big believer that we make our own destinies with the opportunities around us. But sometimes not getting what we want is an opportunity to change perspective and take a different path. Have a great year!
ReplyDeletelovely words - happy 2014 x
ReplyDeleteI agree. Wise words, my friend. Happy New Year to you and your family.
