Looking Ahead to February (2016)

This year, I've made it my goal to plan a little bit more in advance for my posts, so that you have ideas in advance of holidays and seasons and so that I'm not running around like crazy trying to pull something together at the last minute.  Because as much as I hate to admit it, I was doing too much of that last year, and I don't really like it.  I really prefer to plan ahead. That being said, I've set aside time at the end of each month as a business day to work on my plan for…

2016 Blizzard Recap

It's funny when people talk about being "snowed in" like we're all going to stay stuck inside for a week.  It may snow a lot, but you're still required to shovel your sidewalks within a certain amount of hours, so there's not really any such thing as being "snowed in," if you ask me.  If you missed me on social media this weekend, here's the photo story of the events of the weekend:                                Believe it or not--it was not a record snowfall, but it was getting pretty…

One Word 3.0

In the past few years, I've become a big fan of choosing one word to focus on as the theme to my life throughout the year.  While some choose only one word and scrap the resolutions, I am a supporter of both.  I think you can set goals for the year while choosing to live by one main word.  One focus.  One theme. There are lots of words to choose from. My first year, I was intentional. My second year (2015), my word was faith. There are unlimited choices.  (If you want to choose one for yourself, check out the OneWord365 page…

The 2016 Bucket List

I know I already shared my goals with you.  But aside from goals and having a million other things to worry about, there are some thing that are...well, not really goals, but just on my bucket list on 2016.  I have no idea if I will accomplish them or not, but I hope to.  So here's what I'm looking forward to in 2016: Publish a book Run a color run with Rapunzel Create a valuable memory with the kids Provide 2 (or more!) opportunities for the family to serve others Send Rapunzel and Princess Anna to summer camp Take the…
