I'm 15 days late in writting this, but I wanted to take some time out to say goodbye to 2011 and hello 2012!! 2011 brought alot of changes for me, some good, some amazing, and some I wish would have never happened, so all and all I'm excited for a new year and fresh start. I thought I'd write a blog about my hopes and goals for 2012. I'm not big on resolutions, but I decided I'd make a few this year. I'd love for you to share your resolutions with me if you have any. And I apologize in advance if my grammar, spelling, or anything else with this blog is off...I'm running on next to no sleep. maybe one of my resolutions should be to get more sleep nightly. ;-)
1. Pray and read the Bible more- As a Christian I feel like this is super important. You can never spend too much time in worship, and you can never read the Word enough.
2. Eat better- last year Jamie and I really let ourselves go and gained quite a bit of weight. This year I want to cut back and excerise more.
3.Excercise more- I got a gym membership towards the end of last year and have only used it twice so far. It's time to step up my game and get back in shape!!
4. Be a submitful wife- Jamie and I have been through hell on Earth and back in our 1st year of marriage. This year I want to focus on keeping God in our marriage and shining Christ no matter what we're going through.
5.Travel more- Jamie hasn't been on many vacations (our Disney trip was his 1st real vacation), so this year I'm determined to get him out into the world.
And as far as goals we have several for 2012. Our 1st and biggest goal is to get a new home this spring. I've already gone "house shopping" with my grandma and sister and found several houses I would love to move on our property. The biggest problems with being able to do this is clearing off the land where the tornado damaged the backyard, and coming up with the money to get a place.
I've also decided to open an etsy shop while trying to get Simply Shay wedding and events off the ground. I'm thinking about making inspirational knick-knacks like magnets and things like that, but I have no idea how to get started. I've been brainstorming ideas for months, now I need to get things off the ground. I don't know the 1st thing about creating an etsy shop, so this will be interesting.
Also as mentioned above, Simply Shay is a HUGE goal for me in 2012. I've had so many people tell me I'm choosing a tough career path, the stakes are against me, I'll never be able to make anything of myself being a wedding planner in a small town.....blah, blah, BLAH!! I want to be able to prove these people wrong and also prove to myself that with hard work and being able to think outside of the box anyone can accomplish their dreams.
Does anyone else have some big goals and resolutions to accomplish this year?
