Before I start wishing you the very best this holiday season, I want to apologize to my newsletter subscribers who received this today:

That’s my “Oops, I didn’t set Mailchimp up correctly” impression. I’m really sorry about that – should be fixed now. And yes, we all make mistakes!

‘Tis the Season to be Jolly

As 2011 draws near to an end, I just wanted to thank you all for being so wonderful. Most of you who read my blog are users of our Genesis Framework, and those who aren’t may have found your way here in another fashion.

Either way, I’m exceptionally grateful for you.

The growth that I’ve seen in the community surrounding Genesis has been incredible this year. I’ve seen new developers learn and do amazing things. I’ve seen new users wrap their heads around it and build their own sites.

I’ve met new friends online from people who’ve frequented my blog. Which, if you’re counting, went through at least 4 redesigns this year.

Heading into the New Year

There are a lot of things that we have planned for next year. Updates to Genesis, new child themes and enhanced features such as mobile responsive design, bbPress and WooCommerce integration.

None of this would be possible without the help of our exceptional marketing, development and support teams at Copyblogger Media.

Between our community and my company, I have a lot to be thankful for. I’m extremely blessed and I certainly don’t take that for granted.

Here’s to wishing you the best during the holidays, and a Happy New Year!
