Well we've almost made it through another year. One filled with joy, sadness, and unexpected gifts.
In January of last year I never could have imagined that I would launch an art website, partner with a dear friend to create artwork, and another great friend to showcase her artwork.
I also didn't realize that my dream to be back in France would come true so soon, and that I would spend time with the man I love in the city of love!
These are all blessings that I'm so very grateful for, and I sometimes pinch myself that good fortune has smiled so graciously upon me and my family in 2012.
For 2013, I have no set plans, no resolutions, but plenty of dreams. I dream that I will be able to travel again to shores unknown and visit more beautiful places that make me look upward and expand my horizons.
I dream that my family and friends will continue to be blessed with good health, happiness, and the joys that living a full life can bring. And I wish these things for all of you too!
And speaking of dreams, I have been so sick...still...that I almost forgot to tell you that some of our artwork was featured in the Fab Finds section of the current issue of Romantic Country Magazine! This special piece is one that we created specifically for the magazine and I hope you all enjoy it as much as we enjoyed creating it for Fifi! Thank you Fifi for this wonderful opportunity!!! There was a bit of a glitch and the website listed beneath the pic was incorrect, but you can find this artwork and lots of others on our website at Low Tide High Style.
Your art is wonderful. I recognized Trish's works too. Feel better.
ReplyDeleteI knew you would come back to the States with gorgeous photos from Paris! Cannot wait to see how you use them!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Kat!

Pretty art work and how good to have your art featured; congrats on returning to France. I spent 6 weeks in Paris years ago, and love Notre Dame and its stained glass windows.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful way to end the year Kat, and a pretty good year too - here's to 2013!
ReplyDeleteThat is great to be featured in the mag already. I have my fingers and toes crossed that I will be traveling with five other ladies in France next September to shop the flea markets. Hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteI hope and pray that all new wonderful things come your way in the new year. I also hope you feel better soon. Your artwork is beautiful and congrats to you, you have worked so hard for everything!
ReplyDeleteWe will catch up soon, I miss you so.
Happy New Year Kat!!!!!!
xoxo
Many congratulations, Kat! I hope you feel better soon. Perfect *dreary* weather for staying inside. Warm wishes, Loi
ReplyDeletePS - Look forward to more beautiful photos of Paris!
Oh...I hope they correct the website listing in their next issue...otherwise, Congratulations!! You really have had a wonderful year and you worded this post so eloquently. I need to do a year end post and the words swirling in my head are just not right. But as always, I count my blessings and you are one of them, my friend!
ReplyDeleteXO,
Jane
I am so sorry that you are still sick, Kat. How very awful to be sick over the Holidays- I am so glad to see how many of your wishes/dreams came true. Here's to the same blessings in 2013. xo Diana
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry that you are still sick, too! That really stinks! Love your beautiful photos and your dreams for the new year. I usually set goals...this year, I'm going to list some dreams! Get well soon, my friend! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear you've been so sick, Kat! Hope it starts to pass soon! I just bought the Romantic Country magazine...it was such a fun surprise to see your site there!
ReplyDeleteBeen away but got back earlier today. Sorry to hear that you were still sick. Hope you're better by now, Kat. Yes, so much has happened this year. Bravo to you!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you too. It is always good to count our blessings and appreciate the beauty in life which your pictures always capture so well.
ReplyDeleteYou can't do much better than to move straight ahead - it certainly was a good move for you for 2012!
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing year...best wishes for a wonderful new year!
ReplyDeleteKat, I hope you are feeling better. I have a feeling 2013 will be a very good and prosperous new year for you. Happy New Year dear friend! xx, Sherry
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, sweet Kat! 2012 has been quite a year for you, and I am sure that 2013 will be just as exciting. Sorry to hear that you're still under the weather. Take care of yourself and get better.
ReplyDeleteDo feel better, and soon, Kat!
ReplyDeleteI have that magazine...it has a small article about Horton's here in Tipton. I will go look for your art work now. So exciting. Blessings to you and yours for the new year. Good health is so important. xoxo,Susie
