Hello! I hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas, and the love of God shone through all the headaches that seem to come around this time of year....kind of a paradox huh? Anyway, we had a great Christmas together and had a HUGE dinner with some friends. I love to have people over for dinner. I am not big into etiquette or napkin rings or any type of formal gatherings...I am not THAT complicated. I just like to have friends over to laugh, eat, and fellowship. It wa really nice to have people over, and we were all missing our families and some their husbands. I feel very blessed that Travis and I were able to be together this year. Even though I was with family last year, I still missed my husband and was sad on Christmas. We had the usual feast of turkey, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, macaroni salad, desert pies and a cake, and our friends brought some wings and a really tasty sicilian meat roll and a dirt cake...YUMMY!! Needless to say, I will be doing some extra walking over the next few months, just to make sure this holiday season didnt TOTALLY ruin my diet! I also decided that I was going to make my new years resolutions early this year. I have given them some thought...and here they are.
- Become a better vessel for Christ, getting closer to Him
- Become the wife that God wants me to be
- Trust God with all my difficulties in life and truly give Him all my problems
- Stop over eating and emotional eating
- Take better care of my body by eating healthy and exercising more
- Let God use me for His will, instead of my own
- Keep in touch with family and friends moreso than what I do now
- Not worry about anything
- Do as much traveling as I can
- Pray every day for an hour, and fast 1 day a week
I know these might sound ambitious and "religious" (did I mention that I dont like that word??), but when my relationship with Christ is good, everything else will fall into place. I am really hoping that I can stick to these resolutions. I pray that each of you can fulfill yours as well...even if you dont make resolutions, I know you must have goals you want to accomplish. Well, take care and God bless. Thanks for stopping by!
