Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! I am so happy that 2014 is here! It is going to be quite a big year! I hope the first couple days have gone well for you and you are working diligently on those resolutions!

First off, I want to announce that my giveaway was a huge success! Thank you to everyone who entered! My two winners should have received their prizes by now and I hope they are both enjoying their gifts. If you didn't catch the winners, here's the video announcement! :)

In other news, I have been a little MIA because of the holidays. Joey and I were traveling A LOT (we always do) because our family is pretty spread out! We technically had 4 Christmas' but not that I am complaining! I feel very lucky to spend time with four different clans of our family. It's just a lot of time spent in the car so I don't get on here very much. I do update Instagram every day or two, so always be sure to check up on me there. :)

Here's a couple photos of us from the past couple weeks!

Christmas Eve brunch with my Dad, sisters, and their families. 

Me, my sisters, and my Dad. 

Christmas eve dinner with Joey's Mom, Dad, and brother's family. 

Christmas Day dinner with Joey's grandma. 

(We had Christmas breakfast with my mom but she wasn't feeling well so we didn't take pictures)

I will be home visiting family for a couple more weeks and plan on filming while I am here. I am in much need of a Wedding Series Part 3, but I will also be starting another series about birth control. I am not sure when I will be able to start that, but keep an eye out! It will be coming! Is there anything else you would like to see? 2013 favorites, perhaps?

Sending you lots of love and light (always),

xoxo

Happy New Year!

Happy 2013! I hope your New Years was as celebrated as mine! The world didn't end after all!

As you know, I have been totally absent from my life at Here's the Deal. In August 2012, I transferred to a new school and moved cities, so the adjustment has been a little difficult. I have a new university, new job, new house, new friends...life hasn't been easy! But I am happy to announce that I earned a 4.0 in my very first semester at my new school! Woo! Go me!

I've been staying with my family for about a month since it's been the holidays. The internet access here is very slow, so while I have had time to make videos, uploading them is a whole different challenge. I have been busy planning the new items I want to share with you, so expect to see some new video(s) by the end of the month! I appreciate your patience and for those who have been following me from the beginning: THANK YOU!

Something I wanted to share with you guys in spirit of the new year, is my resolution. I kept seeing people post about "happiness" jars on Facebook. The idea is that you take an old empty jar and label it however you want. Every time you have a happy thought, experience or accomplishment, you write it down and put it in the jar. On December 31, you read all your notes and remember how awesome your years was. My mom and I made our jars yesterday! What do you think? We only had black puffy paint, so that's why it isn't colorful...

 

I am in the process of saving up for a newer HD camera (mine currently isn't!) so bear with me in the new videos if its not as beautiful as other Youtube bloggers! Again, thanks for following me and being supportive! Sending health and wellness your way!
