Hello friends. Before I dive completely into 2023, I wanted to look back on 2022 and reflect on some of the happenings over the past year in my personal life. 2022 was a breath of fresh air after the previous couple of years were so loaded with uncertainty and worry. Here are some personal highlights from 2022:
- Both my husband and I turned 40 and we were able to celebrate with so many of our friends in early summer!
- My dad turned 65 but then chose not to retire yet. Maybe in 2023, but nonetheless we were so excited to celebrate this milestone with him at the start of the year.
- We went on a adult only trip to Italy, exploring Rome, Lake Como & Milan. This was an incredible opportunity for us and something we are extremely grateful for. Part of the trip was just the two of us and the other part was with my sister and BIL.
- Anya turned 13 and officially became a teen and now our home no longer has little girls. This was bittersweet for this mama.
- Family time at the lake is always treasured and this summer was extra special when all of the Dautbegovic family could come together. It's the BEST thing that happened in 2022!
- Halie continued to explore her love of horse riding and entered and won a jumping show!
- Anya continued to fall more in love with dance and was thrilled to get back onto a stage and enjoy competitions with her dance group.
- I continue to enjoy my job as a vice-principal and early childhood educator and you can follow along with my teaching adventure at bosprek on IG.
- Logan is still working fulltime from home and loves it! He plays ball hockey once a week and has gotten into working out with the Peloton app.
- A&H Snapshots had lots of growth in 2022 and I am excited to continue to learn and grow my photography skills and side business in 2023. Please follow along ahsnapshots on IG.
Since Mondays are my fashion blog post, I am also including the top 10 most popular outfits from the blog, in no particular order. As I went through my stats I realized many of the posts came from the Ageless Style Link-up parties that happen every third Thursday of the month. One of my 2022 goals was to collaborate and connect with more bloggers so I am thrilled that a few ladies reached out and I was able to do that. Finding community online has been the best part of my blogging journey and I hope to continue to grow friendships and build community in 2023.
