The New Year is here… and so are my Resolutions…

New Year’s Eve means that after all the celebrating is over…

We get to have a fresh start once again.

For some reason I am extra hopeful and excited about this year.

2010 was really good for me…

….but I want 2011 to be even better.

I want to be even better.

So I made a visual list, because I am a visual person, with some of my favorite photos from 2010…

…to remind myself of things that I need to do in 2011, in order to be a better: friend, wife, daughter, sister, photographer, human.

And here is that list…

In 2011, I, Paige Green, need to remember to do a lot more…..

(…ahem… this is not what you are thinking. This means I need to wear more slippers, of course.)

(…this one means I need go to the dentist more often.)

(…this means I need to learn how to cook.)

 

Happy New Year.

    If one of the VERY MOST PRODUCTIVE people i know, needs to do MORE in 2011, what does that say about me? YIKES!?

    Love your photos and hope I’m not reading too much into the one with the silhouette jumping onto the rings in sunset … but pretty sure that means you might want to work on a book project in 2011 with your old BFF. xo
