It’s Our Blog Birthday

January 5, 2019

Each year,  there is one particular date that represents growth, renewal, and the chance to chase our dreams once again. This could be the New Year, a birthday, or an anniversary. To Caitlin and Danielle, that special date is January 5th – the day the Dolls launched Once Upon a Dollhouse. Today is the day for the Dolls to frolic in bliss and celebrate the magic.

A lot can happen in a year… It’s moments like these that allow us to look back and reflect. We started three years ago with a little dream and here we are now living it! Our hearts are full of gratitude knowing that we get to work each day alongside our best friend.

 

Hooray for a new year of Once Upon a Dollhouse with plenty of new adventures. And suddenly, it’s time trust the magic of the new year and set for intentions for new beginnings.

Our Blog Intentions for 2019:

  • Represent an authentic lifestyle
  • Be positive role models to young women
  • Inspire our readers to become their best self
  • Share our healthy lifestyle
  • Travel more and adventure often
  • Be honest with our vulnerabilities
  • Make true connections with our followers
  • Find new inspirations and push our creativity
  • Encourage Dolls everywhere to cherish their best friend!

One of the reasons we started Once Upon a Dollhouse was to chronicle or best friend adventures. We love looking back on where we have been this year – from our yoga practice and fitness journey, to home improvements, to Disney World, to our work with Breast Cancer Awareness to an epic bachelorette and a wedding.

Today starts a new chapter in our fairytale. This story is getting interesting…!

All pictures of Caitlin + Dani were taking by our dear friend Lisa Leventhal at the FOMO Factory in Austin, Texas.

What is your favorite best friend adventure? Tell us in the comments!

    Stunning photos ladies! Really enjoyed it! My favorite and very recent girl pal adventure was a trip to Los Angeles with four other fabulous ladies! We shopped, chatted, wined, and dined. It was a blast!
