Girl Talk

 

Hello Friends! I hope your holidays have been fabulous and you've had a chance to spend some quality time with friends and family. We had a very nice Christmas, we hosted the family at our house this year and we had an amazing time! The food was great, the company was wonderful, and Santa was good to us! :-) My husband decided to rent an old school popcorn popper for Christmas and it was a HIT! The family absolutely loved it and the popcorn was delicious! So delicious in fact, my husband decided we needed to buy one! We should have it on Thursday, LOL!! I'll be sure to post of picture when it arrives.

 

So, it's almost the New Year (isn't that amazing!) time sure does seem to fly! Will any of you be making New Year's Resolutions? I usually do, but I can never find where I wrote them to determine if  I actually succeeded with my goals! Now that I have a blog, I can look back at the resolutions I write today and figure out if I met my goals (not quite sure if that's a good thing!). So, without further ado, here are my resoultions for 2013:

 

1. Be an awesome wife
2. Be a fantastic friend
3. Blog More - I would like to post at least twice per week.
4. Read More - I think I only read 2-3 books this year and that's just not right. So, I would like to read at least 6 books next year.
5. Work on my photography skills. If that means taking a photography class or looking up a bunch of videos on YouTube, I would like to see my pictures look better on the blog.
6. Open my Etsy shop. This is a BIG goal for 2013, I've discussed this at length with friends and now I just need to do it!
7. Sell my cards and other papercrafts at a local Farmer's Market. I've heard that this is a great way to get started with selling crafts on a local level.
8. Continue to exercise at least 3-4 times per week (and hopefully drop a few pounds in the process!)
9. Mail more cards. Isn't it funny, I make so many cards throughout the year and mail so few of them! I would really like to start mailing just because cards to friends and family just to let them know how much I love them.

I think that's a decent list! I have a couple of other personal resolutions but I think I'll write those down in my journal. :-)

 

And last but not least, today's card is just a cute little card that can be sent to a girlfriend to let her know you're thiking about her and want to get together. If you remember, I absolultey love that coffee cup stamp, it's truly one of my faves! Well, I hope you all enjoyed today's post and hopefully you all have some fun plans to bring in the New Year! I'll chat with you all next year!

 

Thanks so much for stopping by!
