A Quick Look Back
Another amazing year ends and a brand new year begins. As I take a quick look back on 2024, I see why it went by so fast. I was busy building muscle, day tripping with my dogs, adding running back into my life, and taking lots of great photos along the way. Time flies when you’re having fun, and 2024 was a blast.
The cold snap in January didn’t stop me, as there was still fun to be had with snowshoeing and winter photos.
As spring rolled around, I took the dogs on the road, creating a new weekly routine. What began as a training exercise to prepare the dogs for an upcoming cross-country move, has become a fun way to bond with each dog one-on-one while exploring the local parks.
Each dog now has his own adventure series on the blog including Ringo on the Go, Rocky on the Road and Moose on the Loose. I love taking photos of the dogs on their day trips and have gotten some amazing shots of them while out and about.
Summer is brief in Michigan and I made sure to squeeze every sunny moment of it this year. I spent a lot of time outside whether by myself or with the dogs. Summer also marked my return to running, a game changer for me and possibly the biggest highlight of 2024.
By the time fall rolled around, I was fully immersed in an active lifestyle focused on my priorities - fitness, dog training and photography. I managed to capture this lifestyle with my camera this year, and for the first time, I was showing up in the photos too.
The end of the year found me enjoying the holidays and getting some great photos in before the year was over.
And now it’s time to say goodbye to 2024 and hello to 2025. I love the high vibration of a new year, a fresh start full of possibilities. I have big plans for the year and will be sharing the journey on the blog. Happy New Year!
