This is the year!!

It's a new year!!! 2012. :) I realize that we are now 18 days into January, but it's better late than never? Righttt....

I'm really excited for this year. Today marks 6 months of living in Arkansas. I miss Oregon EVERY.SINGLE.DAY but I love the new adventure. And even more, experiencing this new place with my husband.

I'm not big in making resolutions, but I did however write out a list of some goals.

2012 GOALS

-to be a more loving person
-to craft once a week
-to meet new friends
-to honor God in the things that I do
-to blog more
-to keep a clean and picked up home
-to save money (i already coupon regularly but i want to set a budget for other things)
-to try new things
-to visit new places (museums, local landmarks, plus we have a few travel plans this year!!!)
-read every day
-to go back to school
-to cook dinner 4x a week
-to take more pictures

I'm really happy right now. I have a wonderful husband who loves me with all that he is, and isn't shy in letting me know. We live in a cute house and have everything we need. We both have good jobs that pay the bills and allow us to both be home all weekend together. Russell goes to a great, Christian University. Both of our families are wonderful, loving and supportive. Our relationship with God grows each and every day.
...we are SO blessed. I'm so excited to see what this year has in store for us.

Love, Russell & Hillary
