Hello, 2012.

I hope everyone is off to a fun start this year! We spent yesterday being lazy, taking naps, and ordering take-out, although we did manage to take down the xmas decorations. I knew that we needed to get outside today, since tomorrow will bring our coldest weather of the season, a high in the 50’s with a low in the 30’s. Brrrr, this is super cold for west central Florida! We are lucky enough to live close to the beach, so we took the girls to their favorite beach spot, the playground.

2011 Resolutions

I am well on my way to keeping my first 2011 resolution, getting outside more with the girls.

We hung Maggie’s new swing that she got from my parents for Christmas, and she really enjoyed it! The weather here is beautiful, sunny with a high in the upper 70’s, and we are taking full advantage of it!

Here are some of my other 2011 resolutions.

  • Exercise and weight loss. This one is a cliche, I know, but after 2 kids in three years my figure has suffered. I am getting married in 10 months, and want to look my best!
  • Date night with Beau once a month. We have not been good at doing this. Last night we went out to dinner, just the two of us, and it was really nice to sit and enjoy a quiet meal sans kids.
  • Stay positive. The recession was hard on my family. My business suffered, and Beau was laid off earlier in the year. He has since found a job he loves, and I see flickers of hope for my business to be better this year. I just need to keep a good attitude and stay focused!
