Had such a great week with my family.  We took a break from the norm this year and had Christmas in Cali.  I have to say it was a total blast and a nice change of pace from the wintery wonderland that is Michigan.  A couple days ago we went to visit my uncle who lives in the Sonoma area.   The weather was perfection and we thought what better way to spend some time than to go to Bodega Bay and see if we could check out any migrating whales on the horizon.  We were out of luck on the whales but were graced with a beautiful sunset and loads of playful sea lions instead.  2013 has been a roller coaster.  I’m really looking forward to the year ahead.  I am embracing it as a time for fresh beginnings, dream chasing, and positivity.
