Since I missed the annual Holiday blog, I thought I would make this a recap of another amazing year of my life. Where to begin...... 2012 was another incredibly busy year for me. Swimming, work, friends, family and more has kept me happy and challenged this year.
I completed my 8th year as one of the Wayzata girls swim coaches. As always there is drama with the girls, but this year we marched on and were able to finish our season with a 2nd place finish in the state. The highest ever during my coaching career. We were thrilled but even more excited about the young talent we saw emerge for us this past season. Year nine looks like it will be a good one.
Work is work, what can I say. People know my passion i have in all I do, and that goes for my work as well. This year saw some great advancements for me and my team at work, and at the end of the year I was able to earn another role and get back to working with some of our best product. I cannot wait for the new challenge, and to get back to some amazing rides around the US and hopefully more.
My friends and family continue to grow and challenge me to grow. I was able to spend a week with Sara, Dom, Adam and Henry this past spring. It was a great trip to just relax, see a beautiful place, and catch up with my California family. My family closer to home grew a lot this year as well, mainly Myles and Gwyneth. They are not 3 and 1 years old and are so fun to watch over the year.
The other special people in my life are still there, and I struggle as life and everything else get too busy to make sure I stay in touch with those people. In 2013 I will make an effort to reconnect or stay connected with those who are so special to me.
In conclusion, I have never been happier. I am fulfilled in so many areas of my life and am truly blessed by the gifts I have been given and the people who have been brought into my life. I hope I can stay healthy, driven and as happy as I move into the new year.
Happy new year everyone and hope your 2013 is a wonderful year for you.
