Happy New Year!

I am very thankful to see the year 2014.

This year we have had alot good things happen, and alot of test my faith in God and humanity things happen. But I am going to focus on the good and positive things that have happened this year like:


- The birth of William Anders, our second son.

- Hayden has started Nursery School. His vocabulary is taking off and I think he starting to realize that making friends and playing with others isn't as scary as he thinks it is. 

- It was the second year we have been living in our "new" home. 

- we celebrated 4 years of marriage.

- we landscaped our yard.

- we made new friends.

- we have a amazing church family that has stood beside us through all struggles. Its amazing how you can "feel" people praying for you. I have been going there for almost 6 years and I love it and I am so thankful for a church like that in Arborg. 

- and finally I am  starting to feel like myself again (I will have to blog more about that another time.)

This year I have decided to make some REALISTIC goals for myself. Some of them are:

- Play more. There is so many times I go to bed at night and feel guilty because I feel like I have been in the kitchen and cleaning more then playing with my boys. So 2014 is the year I "train" myself to put the rag down and not worry about cleaning and just play! 

- I also wanna discover God myself. This year some things have happened where my faith in God and humanity for that matter has taken a HUGE hit. I wanna discover the love of Jesus myself and who he really was. I wanna live in love. And love is what I think Jesus was all about. 

- Walk. Go for walks BY MYSELF when the boys are in bed. 




I really hope I can keep these goals, and not beat myself up if I do fail! 

I am excited for the new year, but also anxious to what it is going to bring!

Here's to hoping that the year 2014 is FILLED with laughter, hope, love and family! 

Cheers.
