Looking to 2015

I like the idea of a new year. It's a fresh start (even if it's only in my head) to do things you want to do.

My goals this year are of a variety. My mind frame has changed since last year. I'm working toward a different goal than I was 365 days ago.

So with out anymore blah blahing here is what I'm focusing on in 2015


Soaking it in. I want to take in every little thing. I want to remember how G's nose scrunches up when he fake laughs at a joke he doesn't get. I want to remember it all. God willing we will have another child at some point and so I want to get all of these special moments burned in my brain of just Grayson.



Write in a happiness journal. I bought a 5 year happiness journal a long time ago. It sits in my drawer untouched. So I want to write every night before bed. I have moved it to my bed side table and put a cute pen with it. I'm going to write one memory or thought of happiness.


Get healthy and fit. I'm still lugging around some baby weight. I will get it off this year. I will work out not just to lose weight but because when I do it consistently I feel better, I'm happier, I sleep better it's just good all around


Think before I speak. Full disclosure here I can snap. Like I get upset, hurt, mad and bam I snap right back and it can be ugly. Mostly my poor husband gets the wrath of this and so I'm going to think before I speak.



Go to Church at least twice a month. Listen I applaud people who go every week. But my Husband works every weekend and some days it's just not in the cards. I have not been to church in a long long time and I want to go back. I stopped going because we got a new pastor and I didn't feel welcomed at church when she was there. In November we were at a craft show when my Mom started talking to an old friend and one thing led to another and we were introduced to the new pastor at our church. I clicked with her and so we are making our way back to church.


Create magic for Grayson. I want to have special magical moments for him. And listen he is (almost)2 so magic to him is a day of playdoh so I'm going to get creative and magical with him at least twice a month. I want special Mommy Grayson moments.


Pay off debt. This is a huge focus for us in 2015. I feel like we are so focused and determined. This plan of Dave Ramsey's has changed the way we think about money in just 2 short months and it has changed our relationship. I feel like we communicate more and better and in a kinder way. We are finally on the same page and it's amazing!

So please share!! I love other peoples goals!

Friday Favorites

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets!   Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord...

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a ...
