A New Year + New Goals for 2015



So we are officially 6 days in to the New Year! I hope everyone was able to take a little time off to enjoy the holidays with family and friends! We had a wonderful Christmas (we're not done yet, we'll be celebrating our 3rd Christmas in Connecticut in just a few days) but it felt good to see family and spend some time reflecting and preparing for the year ahead.

The hubby and I had a coffee date this past weekend and really dove in deep to identify what worked for us last year and what didn't, then we discussed what goals we have for our family in the coming year. Lots of good stuff there folks! This was our first time goal setting at the beginning of the year for our family, but my hope is that it will help bring us together to focus on the things that matter. 

I hope you'll continue following along on our journey, we are sure to have pretty big year here!

As for me, I'm still working on my long-term goals, but I wanted to go ahead and share a few things I'm working on in January.

I love the new year, it feels like a fresh start. I had a lot of learnings personally last year and lot that I felt didn't work for me, but I'm thankful God's mercies are new every day and every day He gives us the opportunity to start new, so that's just what I'm doing. I've also been reading Lara Casey's new book, Make It Happen. And I have to say, I've been so encouraged by her testimony and the story of how she has gotten to where she is today. More on that to come but below are a few of the goals I have for this beautiful new month!

January Goals:
- Enjoy time with family in NYC and Connecticut!
- Clear the cutter (thanks Lara for encouraging this! More details on this to come, but here is what this looks like this month)
            - clear email inbox 
            - set social media boundaries
            - clean out purse
            - clean out car
            - clean out closet
- Find a new apt/rental home in Houston area
- Put our home in New Mexico on the market to sell
