Hello, 2017! I am so excited to meet you! This is the year we will move into our forever home. (Hopefully, in just two short months!) This is the year we will host birthday parties for year #2, #9, and #11. There will be highs and lows, dinners out and dinners in, vacations, and surprises. I can’t wait to see what’s in store!
A few 2017 goals:
Start and keep a journal. I’ve purchased this Moleskine and I plan to use it bullet-journal style, but with more thoughts and memories and less to-do lists.
Make self-care a priority. Drink water. Eat healthy. Exercise. Rest. I don’t want to lose weight but I do want to be fit. I used to be so in love with running and exercising and I would like to get back to that. To feeling strong and confident in my own skin.
Grow Our Alabama Life. I say this every year and every year my little corner of the internet has gotten a tad bit bigger. After five years, I still really love blogging and I look forward to the opportunities and partnerships that will happen as a result of OAL.
#OneLittleWord 2017:
I usually choose one little word to focus on for the year. My one little word for 2016 was savor and all I really did was include it in my instagram hashtags–silly, but it did help keep the idea of “savoring” at the forefront of my mind.
My word for 2016 is surrender. Justin and I made the decision several months ago to surrender everything– our lives, our jobs, our house, our family–so that God’s will can be done in our lives. We have been given so much and we want to use what we have been given to bless others.
Our hope is that our entire year will be wrapped up in that one little word: surrender. Thy will be done. Cheers, 2017!
