Happy New Year
Tags:
I wanted to take a quick minute today to wish you all a Happy New Year.
My wonderfully awesome crazy crew and I had fun taking this shot right around midnight on New Year's Eve. We set up the camera and grabbed some of those fun party poppers and took a couple shots with the timer. I'm so glad we did. I love these guys so much and I can't imagine a better photo to complete 2015.
I'm in the process of organizing a One Little Word® list to share with you this week taken from this post. I'm hoping that Liz Lamoreux will read the list of words again for us as she has the last few years so I'm waiting to hear back from her. The classroom and Facebook group for One Little Word® are buzzing and so fun to begin the year together with our words.
Today I'm in the office cleaning up and getting excited to have Katie back here tomorrow. She'll be working here at my house a couple of days a week and then working from her own house on the other days.
Today I'm also printing photos for Project Life® because that's what I feel most excited about right now. I'm working on getting photos into my 2015 albums and starting my 2016 album and thinking through my approach. I'm also getting ready to launch my new Storytelling With Project Life® (used with permission) workshop - look for more details on that later this week. The workshop will begin later this month and will run for 4 weeks and be similar in scope to my Storytelling With December Daily® workshop: a look back at my past albums, lessons learned, thoughts on the process, and specific storytelling ideas.
Katie & Peter & Graham & Aaron and I are also getting ready to head to CHA this coming weekend (the big Craft & Hobby Trade Show). If you are going make sure to come by the Studio Calico booth - I'll be there on Sunday. Looking forward to seeing so many friends again and meeting new ones.
I wish you all the best this year.

Great photo, Ali! Do share - what is the amazing wooden(?) thing on rollers? Is it a Library Cart? Pretty sure that needs to be in my home.

It is some kind of old metal cart that I bought at an antique fair a few years ago. I use it for books but it's actually deeper - made for something else originally. It is ridiculously heavy.

I had to laugh at "took a couple shots". Hope so. Happy New Year. (Love Anna's boots with her girly dress.)

Happy New Year!! I am super excited about your Project Life workshop.
I have been working on finishing my 2015 album and hope to bring some better practices from what i have learnt in the December Daily course. So this is wonderfully timed. Can't wait.

Awesome! Such a fun family photo! Love that Katie is babywearing. All signed up for OLW and looking forward to another year of inspiration. I live in SoCal just a few minutes away from CHA and I've never been. I heard its moving next year. Any ideas on how I could get in to Anaheim this year? =)
Replies to minimd12
Yeah, I was wondering about CHA, too! I live about an hour away and would LOVE to go - is it just for vendors??
Yeah! I would love to go to CHA since I only live an hour away - is it just for vendors??
Hey! Yes - it's just for sellers & buyers who sell :).

I am excited to for the Project Life Storytelling. I have been on the fence with Project Life and this year I have an approach that I hope will work. Like the idea of having a support team other than Facebook. Love the private classroom idea. Thanks for all your inspiration. Have fun at CHA - looking forward to seeing what is new for 2016. ~Ann

Way too excited about the news you shared about Storytelling with Project Life! Can't wait to see...you are such an inspiration. And that picture is the best! I always always leave your blog or process video with a smile on my face. You are one of my best "cheerleaders" as in #GoDebGo...thanks so much for all you share with us.
