Bandwagons & New Beginnings

2009 was one of the absolute craziest years of my life. Somewhere in the middle of trying to maintain a successful business, saying goodbye to 3 grandparents and welcoming child #3, I was really struck by a desperate need to find balance. I had to step back and take a hard look at where I was and where I wanted to be and somehow find a way to make it all work. I’m not gonna lie…I hit up Google more than once…wasn’t there a spreadsheet out there somewhere that could magically figure out my life? Its been quite a roller coaster, but I am so excited to start a new year with a clearer picture of my goals and how to achieve them….so I’m jumping on the New Year’s bandwagon and making some resolutions….I have a great feeling about 2010!

Here’s my Top 10 goals for the year:

1. Blog More!

2. Create a realistic schedule for my life that allows time for my kids, my clients, my hubby and myself ( is this even possible?)

3. At least 20 mins on the Wii Fit daily

4. Simplify by scaling down on STUFF in our house…where does it all come from!

5. Eat healthier….no more standing in the kitchen snacking on junk food because I forgot to eat lunch!

6. Be more positive, thankful, thoughtful and encouraging

7. Have more date nights with Drew…so far our average is only 2 times a yearI think we totally need some time away

8. Create a budget for our household using a cash system

9. Take a Ballroom Dancing class with Drew

10. Take more pictures of my own kids….I know ya’ll wanna see their sweet little faces!

And because every blog post should have pretty pictures….here’s some eye candy from my recent senior session with Lizz…isn’t she a cutie?!!!
