Happy New Year

Okay, so I know it is not January, and we are actually just about halfway through the year, but I am going to break tradition and make my resolutions now, I figure since only half the year is left I have more chances of success, I am sure this will be a new trend, I am not sure why people haven't thought of this before.

First off, I want to be a better blogger. I have started creating a family yearbook with a program called BookSmart from Blurb(this is funny because I actually work for a company called BookSmarts Accounting) the program is awesome, so easy to work with and at the end you submit your finished product and they print you out a nice yearbook with a hardcover (the ones I have seen on pinterest look just like your high school yearbook, think nice and thick- colorful pictures- pretty layouts, etc.) Another nice feature of this app from Blurb is that you can import your blog directly into the book, so I want to renew my blogging efforts.

I think one of my reasons for past failure is Facebook, I post everything there instead of here. Granted it is super easy since my phone can upload anything in an instant, but I want to blog rather than book, so I am going to try harder. The plus side is I can import my blogs into my new yearbook, so it will help me keep in touch with everyone while also allowing me to accomplish this goal I have.

I have created about 30 pages of the yearbook already, and I am going to start transferring some of those over here for late blog posts of our year so far.

Happy New year- Wish me luck!
