A New Year. New Beginings.

:ah. a fresh new year:

I love new year! the old year, old ways gone. now a new year, new beginnings ahead.

I don't really make a new year's resolutions, but I do look forward to the things that will come in the year.

for this new year, I have decided to merge my two blogs.

lulubellephotography{dot}blogspot{dot}com will be no more.

I could just never seem to find the time to work on both.

this makes life so much easier on me. now you will find my photography on this blog (which I've already started doing).

so, without further ado:

Chelsea Marlene

the story of us.

photography.
decorating.

crafting.

parties.

etc.

nice, egh? nice for me anyway.

(if you have a lulu belle photography button, please remove it. and add my new button, puh-leez.  you'll find it over there ----->)

what I did for new year

by chelsea childs:

I would like to tell you all that I went to a beautiful black tie affair at a mansion on a hillside to ring in the new year.

where I wore a gorgeous gown made of the finest silk and looked absolutely stunning. had the most expensive champagne and caviar and danced the night away.

but..

instead...

I really wore one of these.

and wanted to build something like this.

and I hung out with her.

wanted to go to bed before the ball dropped.

(but didn't)

not an exclusive affair. but still, lots of fun.

I do hope you all had a good holiday. and hope you were all safe in your travels.

here is to a FABULOUS 2011!

ps: I'm sure you are wondering where my christmas post is. well, that will have to wait. the childs' family will be celebrating that holiday a little late this year.

pps: the above post script is a hint that my love dove will be home in less than 2 weeks! booyah.
