Resolutions and Reflections

2013 was a very good year for me. It was the first full year of being married o my sweetheart. I love him like crazy! Spent the first week of the year in Hawaii. We spent a month in Europe on a ballroom dance tour. We made some great friends, and got to know each other better. I became a red head. We moved 2 times. We traveled a lot. Bradley got a great internship and job, I had a job and then quit it when I couldn't move to part time during school. I got offered a new job starting next semester. And to top it all off I went sledding for the first time since I was 5! There's been some amazing moments this year, and here's to making next year even better!
here's a few pictures of some of my favorite moments from this year, dance shows, California, Europe, etc.









Admittedly I am pretty stereotypical with my resolutions. I really want to get fit, eat healthier, and have a clean house (or apartment in my case), and to magically become a better more caring person in general. That being said, I still generally forget what my resolutions even are after about a week, cause seriously I'm usually travelling around the holidays and how the heck am I supposed to remember what I actually decided on at midnight. Last year I didn't even celebrate new years eve, even though I was in Hawaii. I ended up falling asleep at 8 pm due to a nasty cold. So this year I'm determined to make some real resolutions, and write them down and post them so I can't forget.

1) Diet. Just because I am no longer crazy allergic to a billion foods, doesn't mean I should eat all the crappy food again. Time to Bring back the protein shakes! They are much better for snacks than say, half of a chocolate orange. Or a giant bowl of lactose free ice cream (just cause it says it's lactose free doesn't mean it's healthy)

2) Exercise. I really need to start working out on a more regular basis than once a month if I ever expect my back to hurt less. I am resolving to work out 3 times a week as soon as school starts.

3) Organizing. I am establishing and following the if you get one clothing item you got to get rid of another, no more obese closet syndrome, cause goodness knows I hardly ever wear half the clothes I have.

4) Cleaning. Make the bed. every day.

5) Spiritual. Read scriptures daily and go to the temple regularly
