2013-2014

2013 in Review:

 In a nutshell, I got married to the man of my dreams, we went to the Bahamas on a cruise that we will never forget, started a home together, bought a newer Jeep, and we worked…day in and day out.  We had our first married Christmas together, oh yeah, and I saw the Backstreet Boys LIVE (FINALLY!!!), and that about sums up 2013.

Here's the highlights in pictures:

This has been the year of dreams coming true.  Now that I have my best friend to spend the rest of our years by my side I'm looking forward to more adventures.

As this year has come racing to a close I've found myself doing some serious reflection on my life thus far. This thinking has flooded my head with a slew of questions, but mainly…what could I be doing if I would only say yes? What if money was of no consequence, where would I go and what would I do with my time?  What is the best use of my time?  I still haven't answered those questions yet…but I have come up with some new ambitions for the coming year.

Let's talk about hopes and dreams for the new year.
1. Reclaim control over our family budget and stick to it.  We're not terrible, but we've definitely bent a few times.  Also, factor in plans for our dreams.

2. Reclaim my body and energy.

3. Give fully in all areas.

4. Have an adventure.

5. Uncover true passion in my life.

6. Be more intentional in prayer.

7. Be more watchful and expectant.

8. Go on another mission trip.

9. Take a vacation.

10. Do something that feeds my creative soul.  (Take a cake decorating class or something).

2013, you've been a great year! 2014, let's see you top it!  Now what about you?  What are your favorite memories from 2013?  What about hopes and dreams for 2014?

Happy New Year!
