it's a new year. so, that means...

hey guys, i am back from my little break. it was so nice to take some time for me and get away from this blog. can you keep a secret? i never went away. i was still doing other blog stuff {bad eryka!} i do have some exciting ideas for this little blog of mine for 2013. so, last week was spent brainstorming!

i want to say thank you to all those darling ladies who took over for me. i loved reading all their posts! hope you did too! you will have to bare with me this week while i play a little catch up! 

...it's that time again {well you probably already did this since we are 7 days into january!}...time to write down things you hope to accomplish during the new year. i was look back through my list from last year and it was pretty fun to go through and cross off the ones i accomplished! so, at the end of this year i will turn 25 {holy cow!}. i have decided to make a list of 25 goals/resolutions to accomplish this year. everyone seems to be doing the 25 before 25 thing so, i tried to make it a little different and wait until new years to start. also, count this as januarys happy list. since all these new goals make me happy!!! 

+ find a way to give more 

+ read my scriptures daily 

+ cut dairy out of my diet 

+ read 25 books 
+ get pregnant {can atleast wish for it!}

+ set a time every day to unplug from the internets

+ get in shape//loose that extra weight {so cliche'} 

+ try harder in all things 

+ tell those i love, i love you more often

+ drink more water 

+ not be so quick to judge others 

+ attend temple more often 

+ do yoga at least 3 times a week

+ stick to a groceries budget 

+ cook more meals at home 4 or 5 nights a week

+ tell/find ways to show the husband i appreciate him more

+ not let the dishes pile up in the sink

+ organize our apt

+ be more diligent in my personal prayers  

+ not be so shy 

+ no blogging when the hubby is home or on weekends

+ eat less carbs {i know, i am crazy!}

+ plan a vacation to somewhere we haven't been but, close to home

+ watch less tv 

+ do more random acts of kindness 

some may think it's silly to write things down since alot of us don't accomplish what we want but, i have always loved it! so, what is on your 2013 list?
