Preparing for a New Year

What a beautiful day!  I LOVE that it snowed today...it reminds me of my white canvases that are ready to be painted...my new journal that is ready to be opened and filled with art...and all the possibilities that the next 365 days bring to live my dreams and enjoy this journey!

I'm not big on New Year Resolutions.  However, I do believe we should reflect on the past...celebrate all of the blessings and learn from our mistakes...AND I do believe in setting goals and making them become a reality in our future.

So...here are my goals for 2013:

1. Start my day at 5 AM...reading God's Word to prepare my heart for His plans each day!

2. Spend more quality time with my little girl...who isn't quite so little anymore!

3. Make more home-cooked meals for my family.

4.  Learn how to use my new camera to capture my beautiful life.

5. Journal EVERY day!  This is the cover of my Joy journal...inspired by Alisa Burke!  I just LOVE that lady's style and fun ideas! Ohhhhhh! I can't wait to crack the binding tomorrow!

AND...last but not least...
6.  Live my life with a "no fear" attitude!  I want to have fun making art, inspiring others, and enjoying this beautiful life that is so full of God's blessings.

So...what are your goals for 1013?
