Welcome 2011!

I can't believe it is 2011 already.  I am not sure why, but this year, the new year seems different than all the other years past. I feel like this year is going to be a turning point for me and my little family. I really want to accomplish some goals this year, ones that will better myself and my family.  I don't usually even make resolutions because I feel like they're just a wish list, so I have decided to keep things simple so I can hold myself accountable.

Here are some changes I am expecting and preparing for this year to come;
-We plan to have a new addition to our family (bytheway-- I am NOT pregnant).
-I want to become closer to my heavenly father, and really strive to be consistent on studying the scriptures
-Be more service oriented
-Be a more attentive mother
I hope the New Year brings blessing and joys to everyone! :)

Happy Holidays everyone!!

I had been up to SOO much this season, preparing for Christmas.  I think I took on a little too much, between all the crafting, cooking, decorating and the normal shopping and gift wrapping... this year took a toll on me!   Next year, I'm definitely trimming back.  Christmas this year was a ton of fun, especially for Logan! He did awesome with the Christmas tree and ornaments.  We bought all non-breakable ones, but he still didn't bother the tree or the presents too much.  We enjoyed spending the holidays with both sides of the family this year -- SICKNESS FREE!! :)

At our ward Christmas party, Logan got his 2nd picture with Santa.  This year he was quite aware of the a strange man trying to make him sit on his lap.  BUT -- having the photo with a screaming child on Santa's lap is a must have, so we got ours!
