Can I start by saying I have the GREATEST girlfriends in the world?! That's mostly completely unrelated to this post, but I was looking at this picture of us from back in August, and I'm amazed how truly blessed I am to have such real, Christ filled, girls! I love them all dearly. 


Anyway, back to the point of this post; November is almost over! I have begun to decorate and plan for the month of December. Gathering recipes, writing down traditions, making ornaments, etc. This will be my 3rd Christmas with my wonderful hubby, but our 1st Christmas as a married couple, so I want to make sure we start some of our own traditions! Life moves so much more quickly when you are married. The days fly by as I work on household tasks and studying to become a Doula. This Friday we are taking our Christmas card pics, and I am SO excited! You will be too, when you get it in the mail. ;) I'm going to be posting another article soon with links and pictures of some of the traditions we are doing this year, that you might want to get involved in too.

Well, baby steps worked and I survived the week and had an incredible weekend. Had the honor of attending the 37th Annual Right To Life Banquet last night with my man. Enjoyed dinner, fellowship, and keynote speaker Andy Barr. Renewed my passion to be more vocal about the Prolife movement and I'm looking forward to getting to speak to a few youth groups soon. I've been searching through Pinterest lately, trying to find nifty organizing tips, because that's my main challenge this week- Get Organized. This upcoming week is going to be special. My man and I celebrate our 1yr 8mnth anniversary on Wednesday, and it's special because it's a leap year, which means we actually get to celebrate it this year and he has the day off. I think we have plans to see Acts of Valor and probably dinner somewhere. I can't believe March 1st is this week too, and I am stoked beyond words for spring! This WILL be the year I become a decent gardener and grow lots of foods to cook with. Maybe I will search Pinterest for some garden tips too, but for now I'm off for a nice Sunday nap.
