I don’t know about you, but I am a pretty sentimental person.  The week of new year’s is pretty intense for me.  My children are home and I pause to note how quickly time flies by.  My oldest son is 21.  How is that even possible?  My baby is 7 and he is so tall that I’m sure he will be taller than me by this time next year.  In fact, my oldest son and I joked this weekend that my little guy’s new jeans that fit him in the morning were looking kind of short by the afternoon.  Stop growing kid!  I think I’m going to have to quit calling him “my little guy” soon.  At least he is still a good snuggler with all of those long arms and legs.

There are lots of year end wrap-up shows on TV.  These shows are definitely geared towards sentimental fools like me . I get to reminisce on the lives of famous actors and musicians who have had an impact on my life.  I get to enjoy all of the pictures of the new babies that were born this year.  I also am reminded about all of those famous folks that got married……….and divorced this year.  So much change in just one year.

I would like to do my own little year in review.  Hmm…….so much has happened here at Juggling……where do I even begin?

1.  January started with a bang.  We had our first ever Real Food Experience where we worked with some great people to help them transition from fast and processed food to a real food lifestyle.  We are starting a new group in 2015.  It’s going to be bigger and better than ever before.  You can find out more about it here: Real Food Experience 2015.  If you are a social media guru you can also follow us with #RealFoodExperience.

2.  In March I introduced my new series which focuses on healthy eating for young athletes.  There is so much bad information out there.  It was important for me to sift through all of the information I could so that I could make sure my young athletes perform at their best. The series has really resonated with a lot of you out there as well and has proven to be quite a popular.  You can check it out here.

3.  In July, Juggling Real Food and Real Life held its second annual Smoothie Competition.  Some of the best bloggers from across the web shared their favorite smoothie recipes for us to try.  Smoothies are such a great way to pack lots of nutrition into a cup and enjoy a dessert-like treat.  I look forward to the 2015 competition.  You can check out our 2014 Juggling Real Food and Real Life Smoothie Competition finalists here.  I know I have discovered some new favorite recipes.
