My New Year's goals...

Happy New Year!

                     

I took a little hiatus from the blog to enjoy the Holidays and spend time with my family. We had such a nice Christmas and New Years. All of us got the flu bug so that part was not so enjoyable, good thing it didn't hang out for long. I still need to put away all of my Christmas decor and I have piles of laundry and a dirty house that needs my attention. I would love to have all the household chores magically get done :)

Last year my only New Years resolution was to wear lipstick. I know, I have really high expectations for myself. However, I am happy to report that I did a pretty good job sporting lipstick, I really felt feminine and like a "real" adult..

I thought about some goals that I would like to achieve for the New Year. I thought that I would document them so that I can come back next year and see how I did. This year, I would like to...

1: Spend more time with my family in the outdoors. I would like to go on more hikes, snowboarding, camping, biking, kayaking (I want one) and exploring new outdoor adventures.

2: Grow stronger in my faith.

3: Do more service and random acts of kindness.

4. Invest in real estate. This is on my mind daily, I have had a nagging feeling that I need to do this. I am looking for the right property.

5. Grow my interior design business.

6. Stop spending money on stuff I don't need.

I love instagram, I think it is such a great way to capture life. I took all of my instagram pictures from 2012 and made a book through blurb. It was easy and affordable and I'm really happy with the way it turned out. I do not keep a journal or scrapbook so this was the perfect solution for me. I have already looked through it a billion times.  I had forgot about some of the fun things that we had done throughout the year so this was perfect to reflect and remember some of the fun times. I want to make a new book for every year. If you want to follow me on instagram, my username is: stacichavez
