New Beginings

With this being my first post I want to tell a little about myself. I am a fulltime stay at home wife and mother. Me and my wonderful husband had our beautiful babygirl in July 2011 and we finally got married in November 2011. There were also moves, new jobs, new cars, and my baby brother had a baby of his own. Needless to say 2011 was a wirlwind for us and our lives, which is why I am making lots of changes in 2012.
I may be getting a late start on new years resolutions but better late than never. These are mine that I have come up with so far, and I'm sure more will be added throughout the year.
1. Pay off debt (at least half)
2. Declutter, and start living a simpler life
3. Start a business or businesses
4. Start the proceess of buying land and or home
5. Move closer in my walk with God

So far we haven't made much headway with #1. #2 just started yesterday. I was going to do a before and after picture of our closet but I forgot until I was done. I'll probably post some pictures of the after and the piles of hangers, clothes, and shoes we are getting rid of. #3 is in the works as well. A business for me and one run with my mother. #4 will have to wait until #1 is accomplished. #5 is the one that has probably had the most progress. We've been going to church more, I've joined a bible study with a wonderful group of christian women, and a small bible study on Monday nights.

I'm so excited to really get started on all these 2012 goals. I will be updating the progress of these goals as the year goes. I'm sure weight loss will be added to the list sometime this year but I'm just not ready to be held accountable for that one yet......but I will be working on that quietly.
2012 looks to be a great year, at least according to my plans. We will see what God has planned for this year.
