This year was a  true roller coaster of a year. There were highs with weddings and babies, there were lows with me being sick, unemployment and my gram passing away and just special moments in between. There were days where we both weren't even sure what we were doing, much like this picture above. I wouldn't have gotten through it without this handsome guy. The guy that makes me laugh and lets me do crazy things like start a bunch of businesses. Our marriage has grown this year through our struggles and I know that the mantra "our lives" will continue always. But that's what makes it so great. It's our lives. And we live it the best way we know how!

What's your one picture from 2015?

2015 Goals| How'd I Do?

RELAX. I think I have gotten better with this over the year. Am I completely cured of my desire to control? Um, definitely not. But there has been progress been made.

KEEP MY NAILS PAINTED. Success! I have kept my nails lookin fresh since approximately July.

BUDGET. We did it. We made a system. We made a large purchase, had medical expenses but weren't struggling to figure out where it came from.

ENJOY MY WEEKENDS. Can I tell you all the things I did with my weekends this year? I got my nails done, I enjoyed a plethora of showers from bridal to baby, weddings galore, Sunday lazy days, shopping days. It was wonderful to enjoy a full year of weekends.

CLEAN MORE. Let's ask my husband...

BE A BETTER WIFE. It was a tough year for us. No car, unemployment, sickness, death in the family. We had to support each other through the tough times. There were tense moments but those are the moments where our marriage was strengthened. The moments where I evolved in my role as a wife. We celebrated two years of marriage with big plans for year 3!

HAVE CONFIDENCE. In just the past 2 months, I have jumped into two new businesses. I had the confidence to put myself out there. It Works requires me to step out of my shell the most. Be confident that these products are amazing and this company can help everyone get out of debt.

Have you tried that Crazy Wrap Thing?

DISCOVER MORE OF MY FAITH. While I didn't find a church this year, I did start studying the bible more than I had been. It was a huge help the past few months.

The others on the list might not have been met...but I think i have grown so much this year and accomplished more of my goals plus extra ones I didn't even realize I wanted on January 1.

Get ready to see my 2016 on January 1. They might look the same, they might have evolved from this year's resolutions but I can say I am excited for 2016!

How did you do with your goals. resolutions for 2015?

5 Goals for 2015

As we enter the New Year, I am even more excited to make my goals and resolutions for 2015. Ever have one of those years where you just have a feeling it's going to be amazing? That's this year.

There will be a best friend baby, a best friend wedding, a best friend moving back to the East coast and celebrating two years of marriage. Mixed in all of this excitement, I will be working hard to achieve my best self this year.

1. Live a healthier lifestyle

Tone It Up challenges will be completed. Junk food will be kept to a minimum. I have started to have some problems with my sugar levels lately and I think it's because of the lack of movement and poor eating habits the past month. Time to nip it in the bud and get myself back into shape. It's time to stop giving excuses to why I can't and realize why I absolutely need to be my healthiest self this coming year. 

2. Be more intentional with my time

In order to grow myself and hobbies, I need to stop spending so much time drowning in Pinterest and my Twitter feed. And looking at cat videos...There are nights where I realize I spent over an hour just aimlessly clicking around the inter webs. It also means putting down the phone, which is another time stealer. Darn you Crazy Kitchen. It would be more beneficial to work on a blog post or have more conversations with my husband. Or what he likes even better, cleaning. 

3. Grow my hobbies.

If I work on being more intentional with my time I know I can grow my blog. My time will be spent on my editorial calendar, social media planning and interacting more with other blogs to make my blog a success.

If I start eating healthier and working out, I know I can start running again without feeling like I'm coughing up a lung and actually enjoy it again. It will help me run a 5k in the very near future.

When someone asks me how I took our Christmas photos, I will be able to tell them the settings without stumbling through aperture, ios, white balance. Those will roll off my tongue and I will be able to switch back and forth with ease. 

4. Cest La Vie

Anxiety is something I deal with quite frequently. It isn't out of control but it can definitely control my actions and attitude. It leads to controlling and obsessing over things that I shouldn't and even tends to give me minor migraines.  This year I want to be able to relax and stress less over things. On our anniversary trip, Brian described me as "vacation Krista." I wasn't stressed and just let things play out as they should. I felt relaxed and it felt great to feel that way. This year, Vacation Krista will be 24/7 Krista.

5. Become a better wife

This will be a continual goal year after year. I never want to stop working on our marriage and becoming a better wife. As our lives change, I have to adjust myself and my time. Really listen to what my husband needs. Marriage is work and I fully expect to give it my all this year. And apparently that means developing a cleaning schedule.

I am very excited to start working on these goals and develop myself over this year. What are your goals/resolutions for this year?
