Welcome back, I hope everyone had a wonderful winter break!  We had some exciting travels that I can't wait to share!  But first .... we have a winner for the "Top 15 of 2015" Contest!!  

We had a whopping 95 comments when I counted all the blog and Facebook comments - not counting the ones from my mom - thanks mom, lol.   I was super scientific and hand wrote a list of numbers - starting with day 15 of the blog, I wrote the names of each person who commented in the order they commented.  Then I did the same thing for the Facebook posts on my page.  Then to be fair, I plugged the numbers in at Random.org to come up with a random number for our winner.  And the winner is ..... number 87!!

Comment number 87 was this gem, posted on Facebook under day nine in the countdown:  "Love the gown color."  And the winner??  Drumroll please.....

Lisa Pagano!!

Congratulations Lisa, you have won a free mini session as specified in the contest rules that were posted each day.  I will be contacting you to set up a date and make some plans!  I can't wait!

Thank you to everyone who commented!  So many of you shared your thoughts and encouragement and I truly appreciate each and every one of you.  I hope you will continue to comment here on the blog or on Facebook, because I love to hear what you all think, and I really hope to work with you in the coming year.  

Tune in for some travel photos over the next week or two - nothing better to warm up a cold winter than looking at some tropical vacation photos, right?  OK, maybe some soup with that?  I can arrange that too. Or maybe some coffee?  Sounds good to me!
