2016: where do we go from here?

Happy New Year! Yep, it’s January 18th and I’ve been silent for a very long time around here. Mainly because I haven’t been sure about what I want to do with this space. For many of us, 2016 was a year full of high’s and low’s. From the election, health issues, changing ventures, and moving again… I just don’t know where to begin. So I won’t. I would prefer to sweep it all under the rug and focus on what’s to come. Goodbye 2016. At times, you were not the best. Which brings me to 2017…

So, this space? What’s happening? Well, we have a lot going on this year, and I want to be able to share the things we’re doing and how we are doing some of them. Exciting stuff. So I’m dusting off the keypad and opening some browser tabs. Let’s get the fresh air in here and figure out 2017 together.

This year, we have several runDisney races planned, a big trip to the Big Apple and our Nation’s Capital. We also have a three week trip to Europe planned that I am going to need help with. Toss in a few trips to Disneyland and my head starts to spin. As our kids get older, it’s harder to make time for blogging. But I really want to document our experiences so I can look back on them. And I want to help those of you who are trying to plan trips, craft with your kids, or have Disney-related questions. After all, that’s what Growing Up Goofy has manifested into over time.

So, welcome to 2017. We’re ready for you!
