I want to wish you all a happy new year and felt it timely to let you all know what the banner picture is at the top of my blog. It is never more relevant than today and yesterday.

2 years ago I was given a trip to NYC to see the big tree at Rockefeller by my dad.

To warm up while in Times Square (it was early December) we stepped in to a museum focused on Time Square and the New Years tradition. We got to write a wish for the new year on a tiny piece of tissue paper that actually gets loaded in to the ball. When midnight strikes they release all the bits of paper on to those celebrating down below. That picture is of a portion of the hopes and wishes that were going in to the ball that year.

I loved the colours and the idea of everyone’s wishes for the year being on those scrapes of paper. I hope all your dreams for 2014 come true. At a minimum I wish you health and happiness, when you have those everything else is just gravy.
