Will You Take a LEAP This Year

Happy New Year!  Hello, 2018!
Did you make a New Year's resolution? Are you hoping for big things?  It is the start of a new year.  I do not know about you but I always say, I would like a fresh start.  Wipe the slate clean.  That is what a new year feels like to me.  My blank slate ready for me to fill with memories, with goals, with laughter, and joy!  This year, I turn the big 4 - 0.  2017 was a year of trials for us.  The storm lingered around but like they say, there is always a rainbow after the storm.  We are learning to adjust, reassess, and most of all...
leaping!  Wherever this takes us, we are taking it with eyes wide open.  Life does not always go our way.  Things happen that are out of our control.  You have the choice.

This 2018, what will you make of it?  Do you need a little inspiration?
Sample product was received for review.  All opinions stated are my own based on my personal experience. 

Synopsis-Eleven-year-old orphan Félicie has one dream — to go to Paris and become a dancer.  Her best friend, Victor, an imaginative, exuberant boy with a passion for creating, has a dream of his own — to become a famous inventor.  In a leap of faith, Victor and Félicie leave their orphanage in pursuit of their passions.  But there’s a catch: Félicie must pretend to be the child of a wealthy family in order to gain admittance to the prestigious and competitive Opera Ballet School in Paris.  And with no professional dance training, she quickly learns that talent alone is not enough to overcome the ruthless, conniving attitudes of her fellow classmates, led by the devious Camille Le Haut.  Determined to succeed, Félicie finds her mentor in the tough and mysterious school custodian, Odette (Jepsen), who, along with Victor’s encouraging friendship, help her reach for the stars.

We all loved this movie.  What a way to get the entire family ready for 2018!
