Resolutions?

It's officially 2011. A chance for a new beginning, a fresh start, an opportunity to do things differently. I find it so funny that just ten days ago every store had aisle after aisle full of chocolate candies wrapped like this...

And now those festive packages have been replaced with this...

They fatten us up then want us to work it off. And only eleven months later they start fattening us up again. Quite the system.

Resolutions. Did you make any? Have you kept them? I have never made a New Years resolution, so I've never kept them. This year however, I am making one, a very important one. I want to be more intentional about the time I spend in God's word. I want to grow and nurture my relationship with Christ in 2011. I consider this a big resolution for my very first one. So I need to keep myself accountable.

Wish me luck friends. I hope you are staying strong and being successful with your 2011 New Years resolutions.

Blessings.

Happy New Year!

I remember as a child hearing about how time goes so much faster when you're an adult. I'm sure I was complaining about something taking FOR-EV-ER! when I was told that. I wasn't exactly a patient child. Now I realize everyone was right. Time truly does go faster when you're and adult with a family and responsibilities.

I can hardly believe it's already 2011. Since I haven't been blogging for a full year and can't share my top twelve projects I thought I could share my favorite snapshots from 2010 with you. Here we go...

January: Tall Man tried out skeet shooting last winter. These two chicks loved it!

February: My beautiful little niece, LC, was born a few weeks early and

had to be fed from a syringe.

I got to help. Such a proud auntie!

March: Waiting in line for the Rock & Worship Roadshow with some great friends.

April: My beautiful chicks dancing in their Easter dresses.

May: I loved showing my family where I grew up.

June: My precious oldest chick at her ninth birthday party.

July: We had such a busy month, going to the Mariner's game with my Tall Man, brother-in-law and father-in-law was definitely a highlight.

August: My middle chick and her fish.

September: Are you kidding me? This is total kid happiness. An ice cream cone at the county fair.

October: I have to sneak in a picture of me and my Tall Man. I just really like this one.

November: I love the child like excitement in his face as he sleds down the hill.

December: Of course nothing tops having the family together for Christmas.

I hope you all had a happy and healthy 2010. May you have a blessed 2011.

Blessings.
