Happy 2010 Everyone! Im SUCH a new years junkie! I love January 1st... I love fresh starts and change and setting goals and having something as great as a new year to motivate us all to be better... Mark and I have been hard at work cleaning our house.. ( I dont believe in spring cleaning.. I do new years cleaning) Its amazing to see how much junk we have accumulated in the past nine months! Anyways.. I was excited for this new year.. Cleaning.. Making resolutions and setting new goals.. Here are some of my resolutions:
2010 Resolutions:
Read the BOM with Mark
Get Fit!
Stick to a budget ( that one is gonna be TOUGH!!)
Run a 1/2 marathon
Get/stay organized
Show those that I love how much I love and appreicate them by putting forth more effort to stay in touch and serve them.
Its my first "year" being a wife.. I had NO idea how much of a responsibility it was to have a family.. even if it only consists of me mark and rizzo. Its my goal to this year set habits that will guide me and my family through the rest of our life. Goals of being a little more organized, a little more spiritual, a little more kind, a little more friendly, a little more giving.. you get the picture..
So in light of that Im changing the theme of my blog..
-A LITTLE MORE- From the Minariks. I want to make weekly (or whenever i get around to it;) posts about how we are trying to be "A Little More..." Not so much for the readers.. (although I just KNOW all of you check my blog every day to get a peek:) ) More for me.. to track my progress...and to keep myself on the path of always striving to be A Little Better. A Little More like my Heavenly Father, A Little More like Christ.... Because isn't that the point of life? To try and better yourslef every day? Be better even if the kids are driving you nuts? Be better even if your exhausted from work? Even if you dont feel good? Even if you would rather sit on the couch and watch Gilmore Girl marathons? Its my goal.. And Im stickin to it! Thanks for reading.. Let me know what you think about
-A LITTLE MORE-
You...are amazing. That's all there is to it. Dang it, and you look good, too. *sigh* Annnnyway, so on cutest blogs on the block or whatever it's called, they now have templates for the big blog such as yours or mine. Yes, that is how I did it, I copied and pasted. As for your top secret news...woooo hoooo! Max is thrilled as well. Good luck with your goals!
ReplyDeleteGREAT post! you inspired me to set some goals myself. I want to try to run a half marathon this year too but that might change after I have a baby and realize that it's alot harder than i thought. as for the fonts thing- there is a link on the sidebar of my blog that says kevin and amanda if you click on that you can find all sorts of goodies and tutorials on how to change fonts. ps i saw your mom today and she is just awesome i love her. she brought me my very own hymnal before relief society started and said, "here you look like you wanted your own." haha I love it!
ReplyDeleteI haven't blogged/blog surfed in awhile, and I love what you've done with yours. The theme "A little more" is fabulous, and you sound really centered.
ReplyDeleteI heard that you'll be moving to IF sometime soon, and I was wondering if I could pick your brain about decorating... I've gathered that your family has some serious style, and I'd like to glean a bit.
Let me know if Doug and I can help with the move, even if it's only dog sitting, we'd love to be a real aunt and uncle.
Let me know when the half marathon is because I am so there.
