Fairy tales can come true, it can happen to you!

When your young at heart... (Frank Sinatra sang it best).  He sang it at our wedding reception, and he sings it over and over in my heart!

So I have had quite a few dreams since the incept of 2007, the year of living the dream. It has seemed to pour over into each new year. Some of them have come true, some are coming true, and some yet to be.  2009, year of love, has been full of just that and for that I couldn't be more grateful.

2007 Dream - To follow my heart rather than my head in my career.  

That meant quitting my boring, uninspiring day job, and following my passion, yoga. I completed my 500 HR teacher training in July 2007, gained employment as Events Manager with YogaWorks, and later Studio Manager with ISHTA yoga. During this time I began teaching but nervous to make the plunge into full time teaching I always held onto another job for the financial comfort blanket, albeit trapeze school, cookie making, appleseeds, etc. However since moving to Bountiful, UT I have acquired 8 weekly group classes, 6 adult classes, one children's class, and a family flow class.  I am working right now on expanding in our community by teaching at Assisted Living Centers and to special needs groups as well. With gratitude I offer classes at Infusion in Bountiful and Flow Yoga in SLC. 

In reviewing the opportunity to teach such an honored practice, I realize I am only as able as the abundant life source that connects me to this earth. I have one foot always firmly planted, anchored, and one ready for the next adventure.  An open invitation awaits you.

 

2008 Dream - To be married. 

It took just a touch longer than 2008 to be realized, but January 24, 2009, all the elements united with the Day club, Connie became a Day. Need I say more...

As if that dream wasn't enough, the year of love produced not ONE but TWO honeymoons.

San Diego AND Hawaii, we loved them both...

2009 Dream - To open a bakery 'Connie's Cookies' or 'Cookie Paradise'

So this one might be a touch longer off, but things are in motion. 'Connie's Cookies' will be featured at the Bountiful Farmers Market, Bountiful Summerfest, and possibly Ogden Farmers Market, this July-October.  It is still far off from a true bakery, but homemade is always best made in the home after all.

So now what does 2010 have in store? Gaundi said 'Gratitude is the mother of all virtues'.  Well Gaundi, one of my dreams in 2010 is to become a mother, how 'bout that?
