Where does the time go?

2011! 2011! Wow! Where did last year go? It was by far the best year to date! (with a few low points..ahem..achilles!) But what an amazing year. I found my passion in the past two years and then I got the opportunity to do it for a living! I have found AMAZING friends, and an AMAZING community to be part of!

Here are a few things that happened for me last year:

1) I was blessed with the opportunity to become a coach for Bayou City CrossFit! It has been such an experience. Not only have had the opportunity to change and help others, but they have helped me become a better person as well.

2) I lived on my own for the first time...while this may not seem like a big thing to some, it was for me. Found out I would much rather have a room mate!)

3) Became and Aunt in 2009 and through out 2010 got a chance to spend some time with an truly fantastic little person, my niece Ilsa ( or Bird as we call her) By getting to spend time with her I also got to know my sister in law Leah a lot better. I am blessed with an amazing new sister!

4) My family! Enough said! They have stood behind me this past year as I made this huge step into a job that was a relative unknown. And they were there during some really hard times to.

5) My torn Achilles heel...WHAT!?!? you ask...while the tear itself was a huge set back for me personally, it taught me a WHOLE LOT! I learned more about myself in those three months then I have in 31 years..so I would say that is a good thing. It put a lot of things in perspective for me.

6) My new family and friends of Bayou City CrossFit. Each of you have impacted me in a unique way. And I am very lucky to have all of you in my life.

What about you? What are some things that you feel where big for you last year? What experiences can you take and learn from? Did you GROW in the past year? What are you going to do different for this next year? How are you going to continue to make great things happen for you?

I am looking forward to 2011! It starts off with a bang for me. Two of my best friends will be getting married this year. I will continue to coach and grow as a coach. There are a few business opportunities on the horizon that I am completely stoked about. Over all I am going to try and become a better person through and through. I am ready! I have not looked forward to a year with so much excitement and enthusiasm for change in a long time. Probably since high school graduation!

SO BRING IT 2011! I am ready! Are you?
