Because back in the day it was hard to find a picture without a duck face... ✌🏼#thrivewhereplanted #10yearchallenge pc: @kearies

Cleaning the house this Saturday and really wanting to get all @mariekondo up in this space. I grew up doing a quarterly “purge” per my dads orders so I am accustomed to this practice but I think I hold so much sentimental value to things in my home, especially since a lot of it came from my grandparents or when I first got married so it’s tough. But it’s also so tough maintaining the level of clean I like with Sawyer running around. So less stuff would probably just make our lives easier. Anyone else tidying up and inspired by Marie Kondos new Netflix series? #abmhome #thrivewhereplanted #apartmenttherapy

Looking forward to all the beautiful places 2019 will lead. ✨💃🏼 #thrivewhereplanted #latergram

Looking into 2019 like ✨✨✨

We did a poll about whether the new year was a fresh start or of Jan 1 was just another day. The answers were about 50/50 but I think the answer truly lies in perspective. If you see the new year as a fresh start, you can treat it as such and make any changes you want. Whether they stick or not is up to you and your special purpose circuits (social psychology reference, ten points if anyone gets that 😆). Of course, you can always make a change and have a fresh start. Every day you wake up is an opportunity for that. You just have to switch your perspective and see change as a possibility. I used to always want to wait for a special time to do things, like sailing or travel. One day I woke up and realized that if I kept waiting for the right moment to do something, there was a possibility it would never be done. And I couldn’t live with that. So I set out to do a semester abroad to NZ one week before the registrant deadline. I’ve never looked back. Sure, it set me on a completely different course and perhaps there’s a few memories or choices I could live without but there’s also a thousand more memories that grew from that decision which I cherish. And maybe I’m a glass half full kind of gal and believe every day truly is a new opportunity. So here’s to 365 new fresh starts. A million opportunities for change. Happy 2019, you beautiful people. Thanks for following us ✨ @becksizelove #thrivewhereplanted #happynewyear

New Year’s Eve!! ✨ So where is your stance on this 4,000 year old tradition? (Yes, 4,000!! Although it used to be counted at the start of the first new moon after the vernal equinox 🌚) Do you see the new year as a fresh start, or is January 1 just another day? Pc: @kearies

Instead of resolutions, I like to make travel goals each year {I also keep telling myself I’m going to bake bread from scratch, stay tuned to see if I accomplish that before 2019} This year, I’m hoping to visit my grandpas hometown in Antigonish, Novia Scotia. My family went there with him the year I came back from NZ to see his farm before it got taken down for the trans-Canadian highway. I didn’t go with them and I so regret it. I want to go this year to see some of his family and visit his old stomping grounds. I’m just not sure if the drive would be too much for Sawyer this year. What about you, any big travel plans or is there any place you regret not going to? #thrivewhereplanted #latergram @becksizelove
