Hey my lovelies! Hope ya’ll had a killer Christmas holiday… I know I’m still a bit sluggish from all the yummy food!
Anyhoo…
I’ve Got News!
But you have to watch my very first BGB video below in order to find out what it is. I’m not so hot with the whole video thang, so cut me some slack if I flub here and there OK? 
After you watch the first one, there’s a second one that I waffled about posting (I look TERRIBLE, lol… bed head, jammies and all!) but I decided I’d go ahead and share that one as well, because it was such a fun and funny moment, and an integral part of my big news.
How It Happened
OK, so please don’t hold it against me that I look soooo not so hot in these videos. lol Especially the second, my fiance was trying to hold the camera himself, as you can tell in the last half.
Regardless, I hope you enjoyed my first video for BGB and I hope that you continue to stick around and join me in my journey of making 2011 kick ass.
It’s possible since I’ve now got a Bloggie toy you just may see another video or two in the future. Lots of comments could totally convince me.
Big hugs to you and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
AGAIN!
Warmest,

Awesome!
Love the videos, Cori! Looking forward to seeing more in 2011!
Thanks Kazia!
It’s possible! 
And big congratulations! (Although I heard once you’re not supposed to say congratulations to a woman when she gets engaged, but I don’t remember what the polite thing to say is. So I’m sticking with congratulations)
LOL.. really?! I think I’m in trouble then, I’ve been getting congrats right and left! lmao
Hi Cori!
Great job on the video – and congratulations for getting started!
I’m looking forward to seeing more…….

What a year 2011 will be for you, in more ways than one. You’ve been an important part of my journey in 2010 and I look forward to our continued connection in the New Year.
Big hugs and lots of love.
Lol.. I know, they were so like it’s not a big deal. My oldest was like.. we’ve been telling you to get married this whole time Mom! Yes, I’ve no doubt 2011 is going to be awesome for the both of us Abby luv. :0) I’ve enjoyed connecting and getting to know you and look forward to doing even more of it after the new year!
Big hugs to you!
Cori,
Congratulations on your awesome news! What a great moment captured on video…smooches and all!
And for your video debut on BGB, awesome job! I have to say that I’ve felt like I sort of knew you through your fun and interesting writing, but there is nothing like seeing someone on video to feel like you know them and connect with them. And for a branding blog, video it’s a perfect match.
Looking forward to more videos to come!
Happy New Year and best wishes!
