Happy New Year!

Ah yes, here it is! Another whole new year! Another chance to fix what we don't like, to change aspects of our lives, and another chance to wonder what the new year will bring!

In my family, being as big as it is, we always have some sort of biggesh thing in the year, a wedding, a baby, or in the case of 2008 and broken engagement and no wedding. It's getting a little more selective now though, at least in the case of marriages. There are only four of us left unmarried and of those four at least one is DEFINATELY going on a mission, one just isn't interested in marriage right now, one is probably going to leave on a mission, and well, the other one is me. :)

I guess having a missionary leave out to the field is a big thing, so that'll definately happen this year. And who knows, I'll probably end up having another niece or nephew this year.

And of course the new year is that time for those fabulous things- those resolutions that I ALWAYS resolve never to break...and always do....well, at least to a degree.

I haven't really given much thought to what my resolutions would be until now, but let's give it a go and see what comes out!

1) I want to be better at my scripture study--everyday!
2) I'd really love to lose some weight and exercise more and look better in general
3) Find out which of the massage colleges, if any, I'm attending and get things all set to go there
4) Get my friggin' drivers license :) And THAT particular one better not be to long in coming, if I don't get it before September 27th I'm pretty sure I'll go postal
5) Develop a bigger and better strain of honesty and patience in my life
6) Be all around friendlier, happier, and more helpful
You know, I would add get a boyfriend, but I'm pretty sure that's not the type of thing you resolve to do- it just kind of, happens I suppose. :)

Well...wish me luck! If I think of more I'll add them...

I'm so glad you put these goals up - Now I have to mull some goals over and figure out what I want for the new year. I know that you will be able to keep up with these. Tons of love and can't wait to see you.
