6. Read a classic novel
7. Bake every recipe in The Flying Apron cook book I've done a few but I've got a ways to go.
8. Visit/meet Ruth CHECK! I got to visit the Fieleke's a couple weeks ago!
9. Wear a nose ring {just for a while mom :)}
10. Run a 10k
11. Snowboard again at least once
12. Send more cards to people I love I'm definitely improving here and I hope to keep it up.

22. Journal every day for a whole month I bought a sweet new journal... now for the discipline to write every day. Baby steps.
23. Make a piece of art to hang in our house
24.Give up caffeine for a whole month Ok here it is. I'm ready to announce it and ask for some accountability: NO CAFFEINE NOVEMBER! I am worse than ever lately drinking coffee every morning AND afternoon at work and I'm ready to detox... I think.
25. By this time next year I would LOVE to have replaced my current income and be baking full time!

Pretty decent progress... I'm such a list maker and I love being able to check off my progress! What goals have you accomplished recently? Set any new ones? I would love to hear about them. I'm so encouraged just knowing that other people know my goals and I would love to encourage you in yours too!

PC Homecoming!

So last weekend everyone made it back to PC Missouri. It was such a fun fun trip! I just love fam time & it was awesome watching baby Travi lead the drum line!



Yes, by "baby Travi" I meant stud... Obviously.



He is an inspiration to younger generations :)



I also got to meet Ruth Mae for the 1st time... & I tried my dangdest to talk her into Halloween costumes.



All in all it was a fabulous week with fun family, lots of quality time & tons of cute babies. GOOD weekend!! <3

New City Bike Pub Crawl

New City Church (our church home since we moved to CO over 2 years ago) put on a bike pub crawl a few weeks ago. It was an awesome turnout and so so much fun! Unfortunately I may have been the only event photographer. You all are already aware of how much room there is for improvement when comes to me and photography. But add to that the fact that we were riding bikes and drinking for several hours.

Next year I'll suggest that New City finds a photographer instead of me with a fanny pack. Just sayin.



Yeah. I was serious about the fanny pack.
