HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

By
I really hope that all of you reading this had THE best holiday season.  I got super sick for Christmas (yay) and have been so busy with work and seeing family that I haven't been attending to my blog much and I'm sorry!  I am sooo sad that Christmas has come and gone but now I have next year to look forward to. (:

Today I wanted to share my New Year Resolutions!  I feel as though now that I am a bit older, each year they seem to be similar, but I tweak them just a little bit.  Cheers to 2017!

1.) Be more consistent. I want to be more consistent with eating healthy, working out, etc.  I sometimes will do something once and then not stick to it.

2.) Stick to a schedule/routine.  I want to try to eat at specific times of the day and have certain days when I do chores.  And even when I want to get my hair and nails done.  Basically, utilize my planner more for this.

3.) Be creative!  I have so many 'dreams' and things that I want to create...I just need to sit down and start doing them!  Stop talking about it and just do it!

4.) Pay off my debt/save my money.  I still have a lot left of my school loans and credit cards from Christmas which I really want to pay down.  I am so tired of thinking 'oh I can't afford to do anything because of how much debt I have.'  I need to start paying off bigger chunks and maybe just holding off on buying myself stuff for a little while. (: lol

5.) Travel.  I want to be more spontaneous and just book trips.  I think it is so important at a young age (well really any age) to go and explore the world!  There is so much to see and discover and I would love to just take a million photos and document everything.

     6.) Make time.  For myself, Tyler, family and friends.  Sometimes you have to be selfish and put yourself first.  But I also want to make sure that I keep my close relationships strong and make memories.  Life is too short and I just want to live it up!

7.) Read!  I have slowly become more into reading whenever I get the chance.  I read one really good book in the last couple months and it made me want to read more and then share with you what I loved.  I have a lot of books on my Amazon wishlist and just dream of having a huge library.  I honestly wish I read more as a kid and wish I liked it more.  Now is the perfect time to start!

8.) Youtube.  A while back I finally made my Youtube channel.  I had been talking about making one for so long and was just so nervous about it.  Now that we have moved and settled in, I have the space, time and software to get back into it.  I need to just do what inspires me and not worry about what others think.

9.) Cook!  This one is funny because I do cook.  A lot.  But I want to utilize my cookbooks and get creative with new dishes for Tyler and I.  I honestly will either look a recipe up on Pinterest or just wing it.  I want to have my classic recipes to pass down to my kids one day and want to have a whole book of my favorites.  Another thing...I was considering trying to go vegetarian plus not eating dairy and seeing how that goes...I honestly ate so much meat and a little dairy (I know....but it was hard not to) over the holidays and I seriously felt so sick some days.  Currently feeling sick typing this. lol.  I will get back to you on how it's going.  (:

And 10.) Worry less.  I worry way too much.  (Tyler knows (: ) I want to just go with the flow.  Everything will work out the way that it does.  There's no need to worry and stress over silly little things.


Thank you all for reading and for growing my blog so much over the last year.

What is something that you are looking forward to come this new year?

10 THINGS TO DO DURING THE FESTIVE SEASON...

By
I am excited to be writing this post because I l o v e doing fun festive things this time of year and now that it is December...it's going to fly by.  And I would hate for it to be all over and I have not done anything fun! Here are a few things you can do with your kids, lovers or friends this Holiday season that will for sure bring you some cheer! 1. Watch Christmas films!  I mean DUH!  There are tons of great movies out there to watch.  MY favorites are definitely the old 'claymation' classics like Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer & Santa Claus is Coming to Town.  But there are others like ELF & Christmas with the Kranks that are hilarious.  Another great place to watch films like these is on ABC family.  They have a schedule for when they show certain films. (: 2. Look at Christmas lights.  This has a l w a y s been one of my favorite things to do during the holiday season ever since I was a little girl.  You can hop in the car and drive around.  You can eith

MY NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS!!!

By
Hellllloooo beautiful friends! I hope you all had the most incredible holiday vacation.  I am soooo sad that it's all over ):  Not gonna lie. I wrote a post like this a year ago and it's basically just me explaining/describing my new year resolutions to you guys. 1.) Stay organized...I know so many people say this as a resolution, but I want to be more on top of keeping my life organized.  I want to stay away from just throwing things around and not putting them back where they are supposed to go and keep all of my things clean and organized!  So simple.  lol 2.) Drink more water!  It's not that I don't drink water, I just feel that I don't drink enough of it!  I think that not drinking enough water makes me get headaches and makes my skin turn to crap! 3.) Smile more & worry less.  I have gotten a lot better at doing this but I still feel like I need to do more of it.  I always find myself worrying about silly little things and stressing over s

Hii everyone!  I hope you're having a great great start to the week.  We are still just packing away up here in SF.  Getting ready to move next weekend!  I cannot believe how quickly it has come.  We are trying to fit in all the things that we want to do here before we move. In today's post, I am sharing with you Tyler and I's 9 year anniversary celebration!  It was the most perfect day.  Beautiful weather and it was just so lovely to spend time together. I got us some sweet treats from Susie Cakes a little early because they were too good to pass up.  LOL On our actual anniversary, we wanted to try 'Mr. Holmes Bakehouse' because we have heard so much about it.  And there were toooo many choices. Clearly we went ham and got almost like one of each.  HAHA Too bad we ate them ALL! We came across this view when driving around the city!  How beautiful. We decided to find a secluded bench by the water near all the piers an
