In a few hours, 2013 will come to a close and we'll usher in the new year. I think it's an opportune time to be thankful for the blessings that God has brought in 2013. Here are a few things I am thankful for both big and small this year:
- The birth of www.tinavilla.com
- A kind, smart, funny, loving and supportive husband
- A supportive family
- A group of fun-loving and supportive friends who are foodies too
- Having a dog that's actually funny without even trying
- A reliable 16-year old car that takes us all over the country and hasn't broken down (yet)
- Travelling to places that I love: Boracay, Subic and Tagaytay
- Learning to paddle board
- God proving to us that He is faithful to His promises
- Being able to give back
- Reading the Philippine Daily Inquirer and the Philippine Star and finding that I'm in it (In a good way, Haha!)
- Crossing off items from our home wish list: purchasing our Klippan sofa from Ikea and our Prizmic & Brill work desk and chair
- Reuniting with old friends
- Making new friends
- Receiving an e-mail from GQ.com asking me if they can use one of my photos for an article they are writing (awesome!)
- Collaborating with brands: Nestle, Bounty Fresh, Fruits in Bloom, Fifth Season Spa, Toccare Spa and Pevonia
- Readers from around the world who rock!
