One Year Older and Wiser Too:

Happy Blog-aversery to me. I made my first post exactly one year ago. If you're interested you can see it HERE.

A few days ago I thought, wow I should start planning on something creative, funny, and charming to say for my one year post. Yesterday I thought, oh wow, I have to blog something tomorrow. Today I thought: oh great, here comes another boring post because I haven't done or thought about how to make a fantastic post. Oh well, it's my blog and my style hasn't changed much in one years time.

Here are a few recaps for the year however:

1. We've lived in Las Vegas now for just over a Year and enjoy it very much. We do a lot of outside activities (when it's under 100 degrees). The house projects are never ending and we like it that way. Painting is still in progress, the yard is still growing green, flowers are always being planted, and dreams of new kitchen counters and light fixtures and often brought up in conversation.

2. My weight loss goals have been going very well. I'm now squeezing into single digit pant sizes and feeling healthier. Health and strength really are the goals here, not pant sizes (the cold hard truth is I may never see a size 4 again, and I've come to grips with it). Emma is worth every pound:
3. Shane and I are feeling very blessed to both have jobs and enjoy them. It's good for me to remember we are grateful (especially because Shane's busy season ended late and is already starting early).

At any rate, it's been a good year full of ups and downs and I'm excited to keep blogging about it. Hope you find something worth your read throughout this next year.
