Sisters and my ONE little word!


I am completely on an emotional high right now...
I cannot explain how I feel.....not even to myself.
I think Mike probably thinks his wife is totally CRAY!
{In a good way of course.....}
.
.
I completely see the blessings in my life, I SEE them and I embrace them.
I attended the temple right before Christmas break----with an open heart I went in with one reason, and one reason ONLY---- putting Christ first!
I have found over the past year-----PUTTING him first {which I haven't always done} brought joy and miracles in my life. 
I feel like a broken record, cuz I always am saying the same thing over and over, but I can only say when I have lived.  :) and ITS REAL!
We planned a sister day over the Christmas break!
We have done this for a few years now, making a sissy day a priority!
So thankful for them....
My heart could explode!
We will be the 5 really annoying old ladies one day throwing popcorn in the theater like 5 year olds!
.
.
.
Pedi's.....
50 happy piggies.....







Texas Road house.........:)





And of course-----
Charming charlies, $9 dollar purses.
Total SCORE MAN!
.
.
WE can never end a sister day without someone FALLING...and someone peeing their pants.
I'm not going to tell you who did what.....LOL
.
.
We will ALSO be the 5 old ladies wearing depends and tripping each other with our canes.
True story!







Sorry---
Can't do a post WITHOUT posting Mabel!
{sorry mom} {my mom hates cats} lol
Just wanted you guys to know that she ALSO wears her seat belt.
I'm a responsible Cat mom........
.
.
.
.
.
I will be spraying finish over charlee's signature on her NEW highs chair!
THIS I need to keep forever!
She told me ...."Mom, i just wanted everyone to know its mine"....lol
Well of course charlee...........of course!





OK---ON to the good stuff......
.
.
.
Ive seen ALOT of woman on blogs and Instagram post their #onelittleword for the NEW year.
This is something I wanted to try this year.
.
.
I looked at my past year and things happening in my life right now to try and inspire a perfect word for me.
I thought of many WORDS!
.
.
then I thought of  "Reach".................
I waited a few days to get confirmation for my word.
I wanted it to fit and form me PERFECTLY!
:)
My new 2014 WORD is REACH!
.
.
AND HERE IS WHY----
I feel like I'm yelling.,...lol
I'm just so excited!
.
.
I looked at 2013.....and I really had an AMAZING year...
re-marring the love of my LIFE, finding myself spiritually and mentally with temple attendance and running a half marathon. 
IT was all me....
I reached for those things.
To GROW is to REACH!
We have the power and ability to reach for things we want in our lives!
.
.
THIS year I will REACH for,
Education....I'm going back to school!  :)
{holy crap}
starting asap......
and to grow more spiritually
and to REACH for an amazing marriage.
.
.
I know good things will happen in 2014!
Obviously we will have set backs......that's life,
. and LIFE isn't perfect, its just accepting the fact and still REACH for things we want!
.
.
.
I see the word reach everywhere now......... :)

  2. Excellent and perfect word for you, Annie! You have inspired me! I love the Pres Hinckley quote "Try a little harder to do a little better." That's really all He's asking us to do. Little steps and soon we'll be there! Got a cute email from your mom yesterday. She's sooo adorable. Hardly know her but I love her. Hope you and your cute little family have a happy and healthy 2014. Mimi
