...Getting off the Ground!

Hello Blog World (Friends and Fam!),

I'm excited to get started on this goal that I've had in place for a few months now.  I've wanted to be able to have a space to record moments that are worthy of being noted or remembered, even if they're not being read by more than a few loved ones, I'm excited to have a space to keep them captured. 

I don't know the exact direction I want to take this blog, or "online treasure chest" as I like to think of it, but I am hoping to simply see where it leads!  The title came from my thoughts on starting a gratitude journal, something I have yet to do, but have always thought would be neat--a good close to the day.  Basically, a spot where I jot down things that I'm thankful.  Some days I think that task is easier than other days, but I bet if I think each night about it, I'd be able to come up with a somewhat lengthy list.  Maybe with this new adventure of blogging I will be able to tackle that goal--creating a space to give thanks for the number of blessings and happy moments that I might otherwise rush by.

In this space I hope to share a piece of me through musings about every day life and all that it entails.  Loved ones will most likely be highlighted through pictures (and shout outs), music and quotes may be shared, and life will definitely be laughed about and thought through--the good, the not so good, and without a doubt, the joy that can hopefully be found throughout (and sometimes behind) it all.
